Closing cold cases with cutting-edge tech
Helping Find the Missing, One Face at a Time
What is TONI?
TONI uses AI-powered facial recognition to match cold case sketches with photos of missing people. Our platform helps law enforcement and families find answers faster by turning anonymous images into real identities.
How Does TONI Work?
TONI analyzes facial sketches from unsolved cases using AI-powered recognition. It compares those sketches against a database of missing person photos, identifying visual similarities that might otherwise be missed.
Do I Need to Pay?
No. TONI is completely free for families. Loved ones can submit photos of missing persons at no cost. The system matches those images against police sketches of unidentified remains—helping families find answers without financial burden.
Our Mission
TONI’s mission is to help families of missing persons find closure by using technology to reconnect the unidentified with their names. We aim to bridge the gap between forensic sketches and real people—quietly, compassionately, and with purpose.
How a Match Works
A step-by-step look at how sketches and photos come together to uncover the truth.
A Sketch Is Logged
Law enforcement uploads a forensic sketch created from unidentified remains.
A Photo Is Submitted
Families of missing persons securely submit photographs of their loved ones for comparison.
If A Match Is Detected
TONI analyzes facial features and alerts authorities if a photo closely resembles a sketch, prompting further forensic review.
Free to use. Fueled by support.
Right now, TONI is fueled by purpose—not profit.
This is a labor of love and necessity, built in off-hours and unpaid time. In the future, we hope to fund operations sustainably so we can continue offering this tool for free while supporting the people who maintain and improve it.
