Get FaceCall on your phone
A better way to start a call.
It's not about Who.
It's about Why.
Traditional Caller ID solves the "Who" but fails the "Why." FaceCall bridges the trust gap by providing visual context - showing you the emotion, the urgency, and the intent behind every call before you even touch the screen.

The Problem with Traditional Caller IDs
Words on a screen are sterile. When you see "Acme Corp" or "John Smith" on your phone, you feel a micro-stress response. You don't know why they are calling, how long you might talk, and the urgency of the call.
"Text provides data. Video provides meaning. FaceCall turns an interruption into a connection."
Beyond Static Strings
Static text can be spoofed, misinterpreted, or ignored. Human communication is 70% non-verbal. FaceCall restores that missing 70% to the most critical point of contact: the ringing phone.

Semantic Context
See the surroundings, the attire, and the micro-expressions that tell you immediately if a call is professional, casual, or critical.

Eliminating the "Hello?"
Traditional calls start with a defensive greeting. FaceCall calls start with a smile and immediate action because the 'Why' is already established.

Legacy Static Standard
Database lookup based on the caller`s phone number. Relies on CNAM data, which is notoriously outdated and easy to spoof.
Trust: 2 / 10
Interruption. Static names trigger defensive 'fight or flight' responses due to unknown intent.
Trust: 2 / 10
Zero intent. You receive a ringing sound and a static name. You must answer to discover the purpose of the call.
Trust: 1 / 10
Variable. Often takes 1-2 seconds for the network to resolve caller ID names, sometimes showing 'Unknown' during the first ring.
Trust: 4 / 10
Static. Once the call ends, you have a text log of the number. There is no proof of who was actually on the other end.
Trust: 3 / 10
Reactive. Relies on community reporting (Scam Likely). Fraudsters rotate numbers faster than databases can update.
Trust: 2 / 10
FaceCall Visual Standard
Cryptographic handshakes via V-STREAM. Every frame is signed by the FaceCall Network, proving the person you see is the person calling.
Trust: 10 / 10
Connection. A human face triggers instant social recognition, reducing anxiety and building immediate empathy.
Trust: 10 / 10
Visual intent. See the 'Why' through real-time video backgrounds, attire, and professional brand overlays before picking up.
Trust: 9 / 10
Sub-100ms. FaceCall`s edge-relay technology ensures the video preview is rendered before the OS even triggers the ringtone.
Trust: 10 / 10
Verified Log. Post-call analytics include a FaceHash log, confirming the visual identity that was present during the interaction.
Trust: 10 / 10
Proactive. No video signature means no 'Visual Verified' badge. Fraudsters cannot hide behind a black screen or fake video.
Trust: 9 / 10
The V-STREAM Advantage
Our decentralized edge network compresses video into highly efficient packets that bypass standard cellular lag. This isn't a FaceTime call; it's a pre-call "Handshake" that uses less data than a standard high-resolution photo.

The biggest challenge in Video Caller ID is speed. FaceCall's proprietary V-STREAM protocol ensures the video arrives faster than the first ringtone.
Privacy is the Bedrock of Trust
The "One-Way Mirror" Logic
We believe you should control your visibility. FaceCall allows you to set "Visibility Rules." You can broadcast your Video ID to your contacts list while remaining static for unknown numbers - or vice versa. You are always in control of what the world sees.
The "Ephemeral Data" Promise
Unlike social media platforms, FaceCall does not build a library of your videos. Once a call is established or declined, the video metadata is purged from our edge servers. We are a pipeline for trust, not a storage for surveillance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this going to drain my battery or data?
No. FaceCall uses 'Silent Push' technology. The video engine only activates for a split second when an incoming call is detected. It uses less battery than your phone's vibration motor and less data than loading a single Instagram story.
How do you prevent people from broadcasting inappropriate videos?
Our 'TrustGuard' AI scans every outgoing video ID in real-time before it reaches the recipient. Anything violating our safety protocols is instantly replaced with a standard 'Verified Profile Picture' and the account is flagged for review.
Can I customize my Video ID for different people?
Absolutely. You can set a 'Professional' video for work contacts, a 'Family' video for home, and a 'Brand' video for customers. FaceCall's logic handles the switching automatically based on your address book labels.
