Facebook is negotiating the purchase of Face.com



The social network Facebook has recently been buying a lot of different Internet companies and services that may be useful to Facebook. This year, over a billion dollars was spent on such purchases, and Facebook’s leadership is not going to stop there. Now there are rumors that Facebook is negotiating with Face.com to buy the latter.

Publications about this Israeli company engaged in the development of facial recognition technology in the photo, have already appeared on Habré. The startup managed to become quite famous, and the cost of this company is estimated at 80-100 million US dollars. Unfortunately, none of the companies have yet commented on this information, but, as they say, there is no fire without smoke.

As always in such cases, there are anonymous sources of information that cause such rumors. So, these sources claim that Facebook has already made Face.com offers several times, but this company rejected offers, believing that the proposed amount is insufficient. Perhaps, this time, Face.com did make an offer that is impossible to refuse.

It is worth noting that Face.com has existed since 2007, and the company's development is becoming increasingly popular. Facebook has an app from Face.com. In addition, this company produces solutions for the iPhone. Face.com, among other things, offers API and third-party developers. So, if Facebook could still agree, it would be a good acquisition.
