Biometric attendance system for government employees.
Public workforce, publicly accountable.
Verified attendance from central government offices to district depots and field teams, deployable fully on-premises so biometric data never leaves your infrastructure.
30-day free trial on paid plans · NIST-ranked algorithms
Government time and attendance you can account for.
Audit trail and roles
Every change to records and settings is logged, and administrators, supervisors and employees see only what their role allows.
One policy across departments
Each department can be its own group with its own shifts and overtime rules, and break rules from Standard, all applied the same way to every check-in.
Field inspections verified
Inspectors and depot crews check in on the free Attend app, which records GPS with every check-in, and from Standard a geofence confirms they were at the right site.
Independently tested
Matching runs on Neurotechnology algorithms evaluated in published NIST benchmarks, and face liveness is tested against ISO/IEC 30107.

Public infrastructure only: on-premises, no internet.
Some public bodies can't send staff biometrics to a third-party cloud, and some secure buildings have no internet connection at all. NCheck On-Premises runs the full system inside your own network.
| Requirement | How NCheck meets it |
|---|---|
| No internet connection | The server installs on Windows or as a Linux Docker image and runs online, offline or air-gapped. |
| Matching kept in-house | Face capture and liveness run on the check-in device, and encrypted templates are stored and matched on your own server. |
| Payroll and HR links | Hours export as CSV or Excel for payroll, and the REST API is the same as in the cloud. Both keep working with no internet. |
| Phones not allowed inside | Staff check in at a shared station at the entrance by face, iris on Premium, or RFID card on Standard and Premium, so nobody needs a personal phone. |
At a ministry where phones stay in lockers at security, staff check in by face at the entrance station. The server sits in the department's own data centre, and nothing in the attendance system ever reaches the internet.
Staff, visitors and secure doors on one system.
Citizens with appointments and contractors on site check in at the front desk on the same server as staff attendance, so the building has one record of who is inside. Doors to restricted areas open only for staff cleared to enter.

Government time and attendance questions.
What is a government time and attendance system?
It records when public employees start and finish work, applies each department's shift and overtime rules, and keeps a record that stands up to audit. A biometric system also confirms that each check-in was made by the right person, which matters when hours are paid from public funds.
Can federal agencies use NCheck without a third-party cloud?
Yes. NCheck On-Premises runs inside the agency's own network, so attendance and biometric data are never sent to an outside cloud service, and the system keeps working with no internet connection.
Does NCheck offer an option for staff who decline biometrics?
Yes. Staff who decline can check in manually, or by RFID card or barcode on Standard and Premium. In the EU, GDPR expects a real alternative to be offered, and our GDPR guide covers the DPIA and consent. This is general guidance, not legal advice.
How long are attendance records kept?
You decide. NCheck lets you set how long biometric templates and attendance events are kept, an employee's data can be deleted on request, and every change is logged. When an auditor asks, reports export to PDF or CSV.
Can public bodies in India use NCheck under the DPDP Act?
NCheck can run on-premises or in-country so biometric data stays in India, with an RFID, barcode or manual alternative for staff who decline. Our guide to biometric attendance under India's DPDP Act covers notice, consent and retention. This is general guidance, not legal advice.
