Post-capture. Privacy-preserving. Built for real cases.
DawaImg is used by licensed private investigators, journalists, researchers, and forensic documentation leads working with their own datasets. It is not a surveillance tool and makes no identity claims.
Missing persons
Organize and compare faces across device exports and public archives.
Journalism & document releases
Compare faces across disclosure document sets and media archives.
Forensic documentation
Traceable, reproducible review artifacts with full provenance.
Research & evaluation
Public datasets, robustness testing, and offline analysis.
Public archive organization
Structure large public media collections for review.
Privacy-sensitive review
Blurring, redaction, and controlled exports on your device.
Missing persons investigations
Used by licensed private investigators to organize and compare faces across device exports, screenshots, and public images — then hand findings to the appropriate authorities for follow-up.
- Organize a wall of screenshots into manageable people
- Compare faces in user-supplied datasets, offline
- Connect publicly available images to follow-ups
- Export findings with a full provenance trail
Journalism & document releases
Reporters use DawaImg to compare faces across document releases, disclosure documents, and media sets — offline, on their own machines. No uploads to a SaaS, no third-party review.
- Compare faces across a disclosure document set
- Organize public archives for editorial review
- Produce traceable, defensible review artifacts
- Maintain editorial privacy with redaction on export
Forensic documentation
For teams producing traceable, reproducible review artifacts — e.g., post-capture media archiving for a public event — DawaImg’s record chain is the difference between a screenshot and evidence.
Immutable records
SourceRecord → FrameRecord → FaceRecord, created at ingestion and never modified.
Reproducible
The same project environment reproduces the same review.
Defensible exports
Every exported face is one hop from its source frame.
Research & evaluation
Independent researchers and sleuths use DawaImg for structured, reproducible face analysis on public datasets — evaluation of robustness, offline defensive research into detectability, and privacy engineering.
Case-study metrics
All numbers from a non-destructive, offline run on a public disclosure bundle. Full methodology in the case study.
Public archive organization
Large volumes of public media — events, releases, collections — are structured for review, with media linked back to sources. DawaImg is deliberately used post-capture, not for live capture.
- Catalog large public image & video collections
- Group similar faces for editorial review
- Preserve links back to original sources
Privacy-sensitive review
When the audience for your review is narrow and the stakes are high, DawaImg keeps the work local. Blurring, redaction, and controlled exports ensure you only ship what you need.
- Face blurring in one pass, on demand
- Minor-redaction presets for exports
- Zero uploads, zero telemetry, zero accounts

DawaImg is an independent desktop application for deliberate, post-capture analysis where control, documentation, and scale matter.
