Title: Discover Your Perfect Match with Foundation ShadeFinder

1. Can AI Really Match Your Skin Tone? The Truth May Surprise You Team Orbo May 22, 2025 2 min read • There’s a quiet frustration echoing across dressing rooms, forums, and beauty counters: “AI doesn’t work for deeper skin tones.” “These shade finders always get it wrong for Indian skin.” “It’s built for the West, not for us.” Explore our developer-friendly HTML to PDF API Printed using PDFCrowd HTML to PDF

2. And honestly? That skepticism isn’t misplaced. For a long time, beauty tech tools - especially AI shade matchers - were trained on data that skewed toward fairer skin types, failing to represent the rich spectrum of real-world complexions. But we’re here to tell you: It doesn’t have to be that way. The Truth? Inclusivity is a Data Problem - Not a Tech Problem. When AI falls short on darker or diverse skin tones, it’s not because the technology is incapable. It’s because the data it was trained on lacked representation. That’s where Orbo's Foundation ShadeFinder changes the narrative. We didn’t just build another shade match tool. We rebuilt the entire AI training process from the ground up - with inclusivity as a core design principle, not an afterthought. Inside Orbo’s Foundation ShadeFinder An Inclusive, Intelligent, and API-First Approach The Foundation ShadeFinder is Orbo’s proprietary deep learning system that provides ultra-precise shade recommendations by analyzing the face, undertones, and lighting conditions in real-time.

3. How It Works: 1. Face Region Analysis: Using high-resolution facial scanning, our model focuses on areas with optimal color representation like the cheek and jawline. 2. Tone & Undertone Detection: It accurately identifies the surface tone and the more elusive undertone (warm, cool, olive, neutral, golden) - often missed by conventional models. 3. Brand Mapping: We map these values across thousands of SKUs and 100+ global foundation ranges, from inclusive giants to cult favorites. What Makes Our System Truly Inclusive? 1. A Globally Diverse Dataset Orbo’s Foundation ShadeFinder is built with a deep commitment to inclusivity. Our training models are fine-tuned on a wide range of skin tones, with special focus on: Deeper melanin-rich complexions Complex undertones like olive, golden, and neutral Real-world variations in lighting and camera quality We don’t rely on one-size-fits-all beauty tech. We build models that learn from real users, real faces, and real-world diversity. Explore our developer-friendly HTML to PDF API Printed using PDFCrowd HTML to PDF

4. 2. Undertone Intelligence Many shade finders struggle with olive and golden undertones, leading to poor matches despite correct surface tone identification. Orbo’s neural networks are trained specifically to distinguish undertonal shifts, even in complexions with melanin variance. 3. Real-Time Feedback, API Powered Our solution is API-first, enabling brands to embed our shade matching tech in: E-commerce platforms Salon tablets Mobile apps Virtual consultations This means you don’t need to be a beauty tech giant to offer an elite shade-matching experience. Busting the Myth for Good Let’s say it out loud: AI can - and should - work for every skin tone. When designed right, AI isn’t biased. Bad data is.
