Am I ugly? Get a real answer with data.

Asking strangers online gets you noise. Measuring your face gets you numbers you can act on.

Why opinions are unreliable

Reviews of attractiveness research find that people tend to agree about who is attractive (Langlois et al., 2000), and that features such as symmetry, averageness and healthy skin contribute (Rhodes, 2006). That means attractiveness can be measured, at least roughly, and not only argued about.

What AI face analysis measures
