The World's First Video Caller ID

FaceCall isn’t just an app. It’s the inevitable next step in telecommunications history that establishes a more transparent framework for how you communicate.

A History of Connection

Voice calling has been stagnant and stale for decades, until now.

1993

Caller ID (CNAM)

The first text-based identification. Just a name and a number.

2010

VoIP & Video Chat

Skype and other apps allow scheduled video meetings, but calling remains blind.

2022

FaceCall Video ID

The first real-time video preview *before* the call is answered - where you get to know who’s calling for what purpose before you even pick up the phone.

Why were we calling blindly?

For decades, the “Ringing” screen has been a black box. You see a name (maybe) and a number. You don’t know:

Is it urgent?
Is it actually them?
Where are they and why are they calling?

Defining "Video Caller ID"

It is not a video call. It is context. It is the visual data layer that exists before the conversation begins.

Identity

A phone number can be spoofed. A live video feed cannot. You know exactly who is calling with biometric certainty.

Urgency

What’s the reason they are calling? Does it immediately deserve your attention or can you skip it for now?

Environment

See where they are. At a concert? In a meeting? At home? The background gives you the context that words often miss.

Why We Built the Video Caller ID?

Building a live video stream that initiates before a call is answered is incredibly difficult. It requires connecting two devices instantly, without draining battery, on varied network speeds.

We developed a proprietary Adaptive Handshake Protocol. It negotiates the connection in milliseconds and sends a highly compressed “Video Burst” packet that plays instantly on the receiver’s screen.

Built on the Edge

To make video appear instantly, traditional cloud servers are too slow. Light travels fast, but not fast enough when you are routing through a central server in Virginia while calling Tokyo.

FaceCall deployed a distributed Edge Network. This means that when you call, our protocol finds the geographically closest node to handshake the video, shaving milliseconds off the connection time.

The Wasted 15 Seconds

The average phone call “rings” for 15 to 20 seconds before being answered or sent to voicemail. For 50 years, this has been dead time – just a repetitive sound playing in your ear.

FaceCall reclaims this lost time. We transform the “Ringing” phase into a High-Bandwidth Communication Window. Before you say “Hello,” you are already aware of why they are calling and whether you should pick it up.

Breaking the OS Wall

Most video calling apps are good, but only if you have an Android or an iPhone. FaceCall is the first Universal Video ID, which works natively on Android and integrates deeply with iOS CallKit.
