Kairos’ face analysis platform is comprised of three core features:
- **Identity**: used for searching and verifying faces;
- **Emotions**: used for measuring sentiment and mood;
- **Demographics**: used for gathering demographic data; age, gender, and ethnicity.

These features can be used individually or in combination to gather unique & actionable insights about people as they interact with the world.

Kairos will begin migrating their proprietary database to a Blockchain enabled architecture that enables existing and future customers to form cooperatives, to share, and collectively leverage Kairos database. Migrating to Blockchain architecture also promotes organic growth, as members are incentivized to contribute faces and intelligence. This is likely to yield increasingly powerful algorithms that drive the marketing models employed by brick and mortar retailers, and significantly enhance the security of the venues and facilities managed by Kairos customers.

With Kairos you can analyze any image, video, or stream from most embedded, USB or IP cameras. Kairos software currently measures 49 unique points on the human face to gather data that includes emotions, expressions, eye blinks, age, and gender.

It's still not clear how those tokens will be used.
