On 2024-04-12 at the Global Age Summit, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) published independent Face Age Estimation vendor results which likely provide clear, scientific evidence that:
- almost all parents of 14-15 year olds (likely to be aged 29+) can prove they’re over 25
- most adults can prove they’re at least 16 without needing to submit names, DoBs, address info or govt photo ID to social media sites.

These are facts - backed by scientific data which regulators can check with many businesses offering a range of Yoti age check methods.
