AI People Counter

Snap or add a photo

Tap for camera or library — or drag & drop / paste an image

Solid green = counted · Dashed yellow = possible · Empty room reads zero

Free demo: 5 photos a day, counted in your browser. Pro unlocks extended daily limits — and the People Counting API for automated camera feeds.

Getting good counts

Frame the area you care about.

The counter counts what's in the photo — a room, a section, a pool. Controlled framing is what makes the number trustworthy.

Section 01
01 / Frame it

One photo, one area

Shoot the zone you're responsible for — the deck, the section, the room. What's in frame is what gets counted.
02 / Go high

Slightly above helps

Heads separate better from a raised angle and fewer people hide behind each other — the classic security-camera vantage is ideal.
03 / Check boxes

The boxes are the receipt

Solid green boxes are counted; dashed yellow means the AI saw something person-like but wasn't sure — you make the call.
04 / Busy scenes

Crowds are a lower bound

Past ~20 people, people hide behind people. The tool says so and treats the count as a floor instead of pretending.
Automated feeds · Pro

Any camera + our AI = a live headcount.

Have a camera watching a space? Point it at the People Counting API: it sends a snapshot on your schedule — every few minutes, hourly, whatever fits — and gets an updated count back from an AI we're constantly improving. Images are analyzed in memory and never stored; the only record kept is your usage tally.

Section 02
01 / Mint a key

Keys in one click

Pro members mint named API keys from their dashboard — one per camera or system, revocable any time.
02 / Send snapshots

One request, one count

POST a JPEG/PNG from any camera, script, or NVR that can reach a web address. The response is the headcount plus your remaining quota.
03 / Metered fairly

Pay for what you send

Pro includes a monthly image allowance; heavier feeds are metered on top. Current terms are always shown on the API page before you send a thing.
Questions

Asked before you count.

Section 03

Q.01 How does the AI people counter work?

It runs a person-detection model directly in your browser. Every person it finds gets a box with a confidence score — solid green boxes (50%+ confidence) make up the count, dashed yellow boxes (30–50%) are shown as "possible" so you can judge edge cases yourself. Your photo is never uploaded.

Q.02 Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. Detection happens entirely on your device. The photo never touches our servers — nothing is uploaded, stored, or logged.

Q.03 How accurate is it?

Very accurate for rooms and small groups (up to roughly 15–20 people): in our testing, room-scale counts were exact or within one. In busy scenes people standing behind other people can be missed, so for larger crowds treat the number as a lower bound — the tool tells you when that applies.

Q.04 What does "no people detected" mean?

The detector scanned the photo and found nothing person-shaped at 30%+ confidence. That is a real result, not an error — useful for confirming a room is empty. Poor lighting or extreme distance can hide people, so re-shoot closer if in doubt.

Q.05 Can it count from a camera feed automatically?

Yes — that is the People Counting API. Any camera or system that can send a snapshot to a web address on a schedule (every few minutes, hourly, whatever you choose) gets an updated headcount back from our AI, which we are constantly improving. Images are analyzed in memory and never stored. It is a metered Pro feature: Pro members mint an API key and start with a monthly image allowance.

Q.06 What do I get with Pro?

The free demo covers a handful of photos a day in the browser tool. Pro unlocks extended daily limits for working use — and access to the People Counting API for automated camera feeds.
