AGEWARDEN | Age Verification That Keeps Nothing
wentw0rth · 2026-06-16 · via Show HN

AGEWARDEN

Age verification that keeps nothing.

From a few seconds of speech, AGEWARDEN determines whether a visitor is above or below the age of 18. Nothing that identifies a person is ever kept.

What it is


AGEWARDEN is a drop-in widget that determines, from a visitor's voice, whether they are above or below the age of 18.

A visitor taps a button, speaks for a few seconds, and the website receives a decision. No government ID. No facial scan. No account. The interaction takes under thirty seconds and works on any device with a microphone.

It runs inside a sandboxed iframe, so your site never touches the voice data. We process it, return the result, and delete everything within an hour.

The regulatory landscape


Age verification is fast becoming a requirement online. US states, the UK, the EU, and Australia now demand more than a checkbox. The question is not whether to verify, but how.

ID upload asks users to hand government documents to a website they may never visit again. And when a verification vendor is breached, every stored document is compromised at once. Storing documents creates the liability.

Facial scanning works, but it builds infrastructure that outlasts the check. A system that estimates your age today can identify you tomorrow. Platforms that rolled it out met immediate backlash and reversals. Users do not trust platforms with their face.

Self-declaration, the "I am over 18" checkbox, is explicitly prohibited by every major regulator in the UK, EU, and Australia.

How AGEWARDEN works


You tap a button. Your microphone listens for a few seconds. We analyze your voice. We return a result. We delete the audio.

We examine pitch, cadence, and vocal patterns that correlate with age. The result is binary: old enough, or not.

Audio is encrypted, processed, and permanently deleted.

No voiceprints. No speaker profiles. We keep only an anonymous log that a verification happened. No audio, no identifying information.

The website receives a yes or a no. That is the entire exchange.

What we don't do


  • No voiceprints. No biometric templates.
  • No names. No emails. No faces.
  • No data sold. No data shared.
  • Nothing that identifies you is retained.

Integration


<!-- Test locally with your aw_test_ key on http://localhost. --> <!-- Swap to your aw_live_ key on a whitelisted domain for production. --> <div id="age-verify"></div> <script src="https://bouncer.agewarden.ai/loader.js" data-site-key="aw_test_YOUR_TEST_KEY" data-target="#age-verify" data-widget-version="1"> </script>

Cross-origin iframe with process-level isolation. Site key and secret key authentication with server-side domain validation. TLS 1.3 in transit. The client site never touches the microphone feed.

Pricing


Ten cents a verification. One cent at scale.

Graduated bands. The more you verify, the less each one costs. No setup fees. No minimums. No seats.

A card at signup, nothing charged upfront. The first hundred verifications are free. After that, one bill a month for exactly what you used. Failed runs, retries, and test traffic never count.
