Try the Face Similarity Analysis Demo! Upload two photos to generate a facial similarity score and see how our facial analysis technology works. Higher similarity scores may indicate a greater likelihood of facial resemblance; however, results are informational only and are not proof of a biological relationship.
Sample DNA Test Report
When reviewing your legal DNA test results here are a few things that’ll help understand your results a little bit better:
- Always be sure that the laboratory lists their company accreditations on the report. That’s especially important with court-admissible legal testing.
- You’ll notice a column labeled Locus or Loci. These are your actual DNA markers. These are the sections of your DNA the Ph.D. uses to compare one person’s genetic makeup to another person in efforts to determine a relationship. These Locus produce what is called an allele. The columns marked “allele” on the DNA test report contain numbers indicating the two alleles found at each locus (or one number if they are the same size). By rule of thumb if more than 3 allele combinations do not match the person is NOT related.
- Next, you’ll have an interpretation of your results. This is where the Ph.D. writes a synopsis of what your report means and what the percentage of relationship is. That number can be in the form of a percentage or ratio. (Example 99.9% or 0 to 1)
- Lastly, for all legal court-admissible results always make sure that a licensed notary from the laboratory signs your report. You’ll also see a signature of the Ph.D. confirming that the results are accurate.

How Facial Similarity Analysis Works
Our facial similarity analysis compares visible facial characteristics from submitted photographs using advanced image analysis technology. Measurements from numerous facial landmarks are evaluated to estimate the level of facial similarity between two individuals. These measurements are combined to generate an overall facial similarity score. Because facial appearance can be influenced by age, lighting, image quality, camera angle, facial expressions, and other factors, results should be considered informational only. DNA testing remains the scientific standard for confirming biological relationships.
Pro Package
When purchasing the Pro Package not only will you have the Actual Match Locations determined but we’ll also consider your hereditary characteristics. For example, it’ll compare whether both people have a cleft chin, widow’s peak, dimples, freckles, and other facial features. It’ll also compare things like their hair color, their eye color, etc. An additional feature included with the Pro Package is the Blood Type Compatibility Chart. This chart is provided for educational purposes and illustrates blood type compatibility based on commonly accepted inheritance patterns. Blood type information alone cannot confirm or exclude a biological relationship.
