Who Writes This Site

Every guide on Face Shapes Detector is written and edited by one person, carries his byline, and shows a visible "last updated" date. This page explains who that is and the standards the content is held to.

Michael Machatschek

Michael is an AI engineer and the founder of 1000 Ventures, a studio that builds face and image analysis tools. He built and maintains the image-classification model behind this detector, wrote the methodology page that explains how it works and where it gets things wrong, and edits every guide here.

Face analysis is his specialty, not a side interest. He has designed, trained, and shipped consumer tools for face symmetry, golden-ratio facial proportions, face age estimation, eye shape, nose shape, lip shape, and skin-tone matching, used by more than 10 million people. Building that many classifiers on human faces teaches you where they break: bad lighting, a turned head, a hairline you cannot see, a face that genuinely sits between two shapes. That experience is why the guidance here is built on measurable proportions rather than vibes, and why the methodology page is candid about the model's failure cases instead of advertising an accuracy figure it cannot defend.

He is not a hairstylist and not an optician, and this site will not pretend otherwise. The styling and eyewear guidance on these pages is compiled from the published sources listed at the bottom of each guide, not offered as personal salon experience. Where a recommendation is a matter of taste rather than fact, the page says so.

The rest of the studio's work is at 1000ventures.io. Questions, corrections, or a result that looks wrong? Write to him directly at michael@1000ventures.io.

Our editorial standards

• Named, dated content. Every page carries a byline and a visible "last updated" date, and our most important pages are refreshed on a regular cadence.
• Sourced claims. Claims about measurement science or attractiveness research link to a specific, checkable source. See the "Sources" list at the bottom of each guide.
• Honest about limits. We explain how the detector works and where it can be wrong (photo angle, lighting, hair, glasses, and blended shapes) rather than overselling accuracy. See our methodology page.
• No fabricated credentials. We do not publish invented expert names, fake review quotes, or credentials we can't stand behind.
• Privacy first. Your photo is analyzed on our servers and deleted immediately afterward, never stored or used for training. See our privacy policy.
