How it works

1

A passcode per human

Each verified respondent receives a one-time passcode, created for their face alone and dropped onto their link. It fills itself in at your study’s gate.

Fakes locked out

Bots and returning humans get locked out. A duplicate face never earns a second passcode, and a spent passcode is dead forever.

Pay only for real

You only pay for real, first-time respondents. Blocked traffic never enters your data and never gets paid.

Common questions

The questions researchers ask first

The check takes a few seconds, once. Verified respondents land in your study with the password already filled in, so there is nothing to type and nothing to remember. Most of what a check turns away is the traffic you did not want anyway.
No. A blocked respondent never receives a password, never reaches your study, and never becomes a complete. Nothing to pay, nothing to clean out of your data.
No. No photo is shared with you or with Alchemer, only a yes or no. Your study receives a verdict and a password, never a face, a name, or contact details.
No, and it is not trying to. It proves the person is real and unique, not that they answered carefully. Keep your speeder and attention checks; this closes the door they cannot close.
A password is spent the moment it opens your study’s gate, not at completion. If someone starts your study and abandons it, that password is gone, and because the check recognizes their face, they simply receive a fresh one on their next visit. Honest respondents are never locked out of a study they never finished.
