DENVER, CO, Oct. 08, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Rank One Computing Corporation, doing business as ROC, has launched a new software-as-a-service (SaaS) product, the Age Estimation API. This marks the company’s first foray into SaaS offerings and is part of its broader strategy to expand its revenue base beyond enterprise access by making its Vision AI capabilities available through SaaS and APIs.
The Age Estimation API is designed for developers and product teams building age-assurance workflows. It allows customers to submit a supported facial image and receive a structured age estimate based on ROC’s NIST-ranked age estimation technology. This technology can be incorporated into various applications, including social and community platforms, age-gated content and services, gaming, digital onboarding, and age-restricted commerce.
The API supports age-assurance applications across a range of industries, including social media, gaming, and e-commerce. Developers can build and test against the same API used in production, with submitted facial images processed in real time and immediately discarded. Facial images and biometric data are not retained or stored, and requests are processed without human review.
ROC’s age estimation technology has been independently evaluated through the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Face Analysis Technology Evaluation (FATE) Age Estimation & Verification (AEV) benchmark. The Company ranked first globally in Mean Absolute Error (MAE) across NIST’s Visa, Application, and Mugshot datasets for adults ages 18 to 30, and first globally in MAE on NIST’s Child Online Safety dataset, which evaluates age estimation for individuals ages 13 to 16. Lower MAE indicates a closer average age estimate.
This new SaaS offering is part of ROC’s broader strategy to expand its revenue base and make its Vision AI capabilities more accessible to a wider range of businesses. The company is confident that this product will help it meet the growing market demand for security and safety harnesses across commercial and enterprise businesses.
