Why Biometric Gateway

One gateway ends the integration chaos

Every biometric vendor ships a different SDK, protocol, and data format. Integrating even two brands is months of work. Cams Biometric Gateway solves this at the infrastructure layer.

Without a Gateway

  • A different SDK per vendor — ZKTeco, Suprema, Hikvision each require separate integration code
  • Proprietary binary protocols — impossible to standardize without deep reverse-engineering
  • Vendor lock-in — switching hardware means rewriting your entire attendance stack
  • No AI access — biometric data stays trapped inside legacy middleware
  • On-premise only — no cloud streaming, no real-time webhooks, no REST API

With Cams Biometric Gateway

  • One REST API for all devices — ZKTeco, Suprema, Hikvision, and 100+ brands unified
  • Standardised JSON payloads — every punch, enrollment, and command in the same schema
  • Hardware-agnostic architecture — swap devices without touching your application code
  • MCP-ready — connect Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini directly to your biometric infrastructure
  • Cloud-native real-time streaming — sub-second push events, no polling required
Now Available — AI & MCP

Your AI agents can now control biometric machines

Connect Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, or any MCP-compatible AI agent to the Biometric Gateway. Manage thousands of devices, enroll users, and stream attendance — all through natural language.

Quick Start

Live in three steps · under 30 minutes

No SDK. No vendor calls. Pure HTTP — works with any language, any environment, any biometric device brand.

01

Plug in your device ~8 min

Register any fingerprint, face, palm, or RFID device on the Gateway. Native Push for internet-enabled devices (sub-second latency), Hybrid Push for legacy or air-gapped fleets. ZKTeco, Suprema, Hikvision, Anviz, eSSL, Morpho — all work out of the box.

02

See your first event ~min 12

First punch hits your callback URL within minutes. Standardised JSON across every device brand — attendance, enrollment, temperature, mask detection — same schema. Wire it to your webhook, log it, sync your DB, fire a Slack message. Done.

03

Ship the workflow ~min 30

Use 27 RESTful commands to enroll users, block access, sync templates, retrieve logs. Or hand it to Claude / ChatGPT / Gemini via MCP and manage the whole fleet through natural language. From zero to production workflow in your first half-hour.

Frequently Asked

Common questions

The questions buyers and partners ask most often. Want a deeper answer? Chat on WhatsApp or email sales.

Does Cams Biometrics store our customers' biometric data?

No raw biometric data is stored on Cams servers. Templates live on the devices themselves and on your customer's server. Encrypted mathematical representations pass through our Gateway temporarily for synchronization, and transaction queues retain delivery data for up to 30 days. Nothing biometric is permanently stored on our side.

Full details in the privacy policy §3.3 and §6.

Which biometric device brands are supported?

ZKTeco, Suprema BioStar, Hikvision, Anviz, eSSL, Matrix COSEC, Morpho / IDEMIA, Virdi, Nitgen, Realtime / Startek, Mantra, Secugen, Biomax, and our own Cams Biometrics hardware — plus 90+ other brands via the Hybrid Push connector.

If your device speaks HTTP or has any documented protocol, we can integrate it. Customers buy whatever hardware is locally available; one Cams integration covers them all.

How long does integration take?

First attendance event flowing into your callback URL in under 12 minutes. Full production workflow shipped in under 30 minutes. No SDK installation, no vendor negotiations — just HTTP and a webhook.

See the API documentation for the exact sequence, or jump to the three-step walkthrough above.

What does it cost?

Device-based pricing with one-time activation plus a low annual renewal:

· Cams devices (Native Push): $120 one-time + ₹3,000–6,000/yr renewal · tier details

· Third-party devices (Hybrid Push): $150 one-time + ₹4,500–7,500/yr renewal

· Enterprise (Protocol Engine Lite): $500–$10,000 scale-based, on-premise / air-gapped

No per-transaction fees. No user-count caps. Free sandbox key for evaluation.

Do I need to host my own server?

No — Cams Biometric Gateway is fully cloud-hosted. You only need a publicly reachable webhook URL on your side.

For air-gapped / LAN-only / on-premise deployments, Protocol Engine Lite runs locally on Windows or Linux and syncs with the Gateway when reachable. Same API, deployed on your hardware.

Is the platform secure?

ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certified. GDPR and India DPDP-aligned. TLS encryption in transit, AES-256 at rest. MFA, RBAC, 24×7 security monitoring, audit logging on every biometric transaction.

The Gateway is built as a pass-through, not a data lake — raw biometric data never lands on our servers. Full posture in the privacy policy.

Can AI agents (Claude / ChatGPT / Gemini) control biometric machines?

Yes. The Gateway exposes an MCP endpoint at https://mcp.camsbiometrics.com/mcp. Any MCP-compatible AI agent — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, n8n / Make / Zapier workflows — can enroll users, manage devices, retrieve attendance logs, and stream events via natural language.

See the Claude integration guide for a worked example.

What if my customers are still using legacy or closed-network devices?

That's exactly what Hybrid Push and Protocol Engine Lite are for. The local connector translates legacy protocols (TCP, serial, vendor-binary) into the same standardised JSON your application already consumes from internet-enabled devices.

Same API surface, same payload shape — your application code stays unchanged whether the customer has a brand-new face-recognition device on Wi-Fi or a 10-year-old fingerprint reader on a LAN.
