Fingerprint Attendance Software
Biometric attendance ties each attendance record to a physical trait of the employee, so it can't be shared like a card or a PIN. Built for teams across India, with a 14-day free trial.
Fingerprint Attendance Software: overview
This guide covers biometric attendance for businesses: how it works in Attend Mitra, and what to check before you pick a tool.
The short version: Attend Mitra gives you face-based biometrics, contactless by design and works away from the gate, running on employees' Android phones instead of a machine at the door. You can try it free for 14 days without a credit card.
Where biometric attendance goes wrong for businesses
One terminal, one gate
A fingerprint device only records people who physically pass it.
Worn or dirty fingerprints
Manual and site workers often fail fingerprint scans, and supervisors mark them by hand.
Queues at shift change
Hundreds of workers sharing one scanner means late marks that aren't real.
Device per branch
Every new location needs hardware, installation and someone to fix it.
How biometric attendance works in Attend Mitra
Biometric attendance ties each attendance record to a physical trait of the employee, so it can't be shared like a card or a PIN. Many Indian businesses start with fingerprint terminals at the gate. Attend Mitra takes the phone-first route: face verification through the employee's Android phone camera, with no device to install at each site.
The phone-based approach is useful where fingerprint terminals struggle: dusty or oily hands on factory floors, queues at shift change, field staff who never pass the gate, and new branches where buying another device isn't worth it. Businesses with existing terminals and larger rollouts can discuss API access and custom integrations on the Enterprise plan.
What to check before you choose
- Do all your workers pass one gate, or do some work at other sites?
- How often do fingerprint scans fail for your workforce today?
- What is the total cost of devices, installation and maintenance per site?
- Is contactless verification important for hygiene?
- Do you need your existing terminals connected, and what does that integration involve?
