Age Layer helps online communities enforce safe age-access rules—without collecting extra personal data or blocking genuine users.
Communities and social platforms—like forums, dating apps, or niche groups—face heightened risk when minors interact with adult users or content. Regulators from the UK to the EU are mandating robust age verification across social apps.
Age Layer is different. We provide flexible, human-reviewed verification flows that maintain community safety—without compromising user trust or inclusion.
Users can submit a selfie for a quick over/under estimate
Or upload an ID + selfie for human-reviewed verification
Sensitive fields can be redacted—only date of birth and face are required
If an AI estimate is borderline, we escalate to a real reviewer
Ensures edge cases and outliers are handled accurately, inclusively
Confirmed users can get continuous access across partner sites
Maintains privacy and simplifies future logins
E.g. only verified 18+ users can join adult groups
Escalate discrepancies rather than auto-blocking members
Fast, low-friction age gating for most users
Shared only necessary data, transparent to users
Avoids false declines and bias, improves trust
Enable cross-platform membership with privacy
