Can I use my existing cameras with Vision?
Yes. Vision treats any camera-equipped device (phone, tablet, laptop, dedicated kiosk) as a valid attendance terminal. No proprietary hardware is required.
A factual comparison of Hives.cloud's Vision and Spintly for face-recognition attendance in India — pricing, anti-spoofing, multi-location support, and device requirements.
Vision and Spintly are both touchless attendance systems popular with Indian MSMEs. Both use face recognition with liveness anti-spoofing. The differences show up in pricing transparency, deployment mode, and how the rest of the stack fits together.
Vision is priced transparently in INR starting at ₹99/user/month, runs on any camera-equipped device, and integrates cleanly with the rest of the Hives.cloud stack (Warden, AMS). Spintly is a mature mobile-first attendance system with strong Bluetooth-access integrations but quote-based pricing and a narrower workflow scope.
Side-by-side feature and pricing breakdown.
| Feature | Vision (Hives.cloud) | Spintly |
|---|---|---|
| Starting price (per user / month) | ₹99 (public pricing) | Quote-based |
| Device requirements | Any camera (phone, tablet, PC) | Mobile-first; optional Bluetooth access hardware |
| Liveness / anti-spoofing | Included | Included |
| Stated accuracy | 99.7% in production | 99%+ (vendor claim) |
| Multi-location unified dashboard | Included | Included |
| Mobile app check-in | Yes | Yes (primary mode) |
| HRMS / payroll integration | APIs + export | Integration partners |
| Access-control hardware (door locks) | Not in scope | Yes (Bluetooth door readers) |
| Billing | INR + GST, direct | INR, typically quote-based |
| Bundles with identity / AD | Works with Warden + AMS | Standalone |
Both Vision and Spintly are modern, touchless face-recognition attendance platforms used by Indian MSMEs. Both support multi-location deployments, both ship liveness anti-spoofing, and both integrate with common payroll/HRMS platforms.
The meaningful differences are: pricing transparency (Vision publishes per-user rates, Spintly is typically quote-based), hardware scope (Spintly has an access-control / door-lock product line; Vision is attendance-only), and how either fits the rest of your IT stack.
Vision pricing is publicly listed: ₹99–₹299/user/month with monthly, annual, and Enterprise tiers. You can do the maths before the sales call.
Spintly typically prices on quote, particularly when hardware (door access readers) is part of the conversation. For buyers who want a price-first comparison, Vision is faster to evaluate.
Spintly spans beyond attendance — their strongest lane is Bluetooth-based access control (office doors, turnstiles). If your buying trigger is "I need face attendance AND access control from one vendor", Spintly is the more complete offering there.
Vision is scoped specifically to attendance. It integrates with the rest of the Hives.cloud suite (Warden for identity, AMS for the devices that run Vision terminals) so the data flows end-to-end, but it does not ship an access-control product.
Both systems deploy quickly — enrol employees, install terminals, start tracking. Vision treats any camera-equipped device as a valid terminal, which lowers the hardware bar for small offices and multi-location deployments in Tier-2 cities.
Spintly leans mobile-first (employees check in via their phones via Bluetooth or app). For factory-floor scenarios where phones are impractical, Spintly’s optional hardware terminals fill the gap.
You want transparent INR pricing, any-device terminals, and attendance that integrates with a broader MSME IT stack (identity, assets, credentials). ₹99–₹299 per user is the price range that fits your budget.
You need attendance plus access control (door locks, turnstiles) from one vendor, or you strongly prefer a mobile-first check-in model backed by a company with a decade of Indian deployments.
Yes. Vision treats any camera-equipped device (phone, tablet, laptop, dedicated kiosk) as a valid attendance terminal. No proprietary hardware is required.
Not for most configurations. Spintly typically provides quotes based on headcount, locations, and whether access-control hardware is included. For transparent up-front pricing, Vision lists ₹99–₹299 per user per month publicly.
Both support multi-location deployments with unified dashboards. Vision ships this capability on every plan; Spintly typically includes it in higher tiers or enterprise quotes.
Yes, both produce exportable attendance logs suitable for payroll, compliance, and audit. Vision provides APIs and Excel exports; Spintly integrates with a partner network of HRMS and payroll platforms.
Both products include liveness detection to block photo / video / mask attacks. Implementation details vary; test during trial with realistic conditions at your office.
