How are you feeling? Can your app tell? With the Emotion API, you can build an app that recognizes emotions according to facial expressions-giving you the capability to provide an amazing, personalized experience.

Using facial expressions, this cloud-based API can detect happiness, neutrality, sadness, contempt, anger, disgust, fear, and surprise. The AI understands these emotions based on universal facial expressions, and it functions cross-culturally, so your app will work around the world.

Create apps that respond to moods, recognize feelings, and get personal with the Emotion API.
