Volkus uses your webcam to assign a demographic label. The analysis runs entirely in your browser —
no video leaves your device. Your demographic becomes your public tag on every post.
📷Camera analysis is in-browser only.
The Folkus AI models run locally via WebAssembly. No video, no frames, no face data are uploaded.
🔑No account needed.
We generate a hashed device fingerprint — fonts, hardware, timezone. No email, no password, no real name.
🏷️Your label is public.
Ethnicity, age bracket, and gender appear on every post you make. That's the point of Volkus.
🗂️We store a hash, not you.
The fingerprint is a SHA-256 hash. It cannot be reversed to identify you personally.
⏱️30 seconds.
The scan takes 30 seconds to build a reliable rolling average. Stay still, face the camera.
🔞18+ only.
If the model detects under-18, access is blocked. Volkus contains adult discussion.
Position your face within the oval. Stay still and well-lit.
The model builds a 30-second rolling average for accuracy.
📷
Camera access denied. Please allow camera permissions and refresh.
Dev mode skips the camera and runs a 30-second mock scan with simulated Folkus output. Useful for testing without a webcam.
