Changelog: Score and Model Version History

Score v1.0 is the current scoring version. It runs a 478-landmark model on your device, weights seven components, and has not changed since its release on 30 August 2026. Every change to the score gets a dated entry here.

A score you cannot date is a score you cannot compare. When a formula changes, every number it produces changes with it, so the version history is part of the measurement, not housekeeping. This page exists so that a score always names the formula that produced it. A day-30 re-scan runs the same score version as the original report, which is what makes the before-and-after comparison honest.

Score Versions

VersionReleasedStatusWhat it includes
Score v1.02026-08-30Current478-landmark on-device scan, seven weighted components, weights published on the methodology page

The landmark model behind every version is MediaPipe Face Landmarker, which places 478 points on a detected face in the browser. If that model is ever upgraded, the upgrade ships as a new score version with its own row above, never as a silent swap underneath an old version number.

Withheld From v1.0, With Reasons

  • Confidence band: withheld until a test-retest study measures how much the score moves between two scans of the same face.
  • Percentile: withheld until a reference population of real, consented scans exists to rank against.

What we won't show you: a confidence band (not until our test-retest study ships) · a percentile (not until a reference population is published) · a skin score from one photo (lighting lies). Every "not scored" comes with its reason.

It measures geometry, not worth. The number tells you where you start. It never tells you what you are.
