As a scientist I hate to find such mistakes in publications: "The test set is used for scoring the candidate DeepMasterPrints during optimization. The attack should be successful against these fingerprints as it is directly optimized for them." Even if that's a typo..

This is intended to be a drop-in replacement (sign in, create namespace, update the endpoint address to http://api.skybiometry.com/fc/ and use your old code) for face detection and recognition. Detection of some face attributes is still missing but we are working on it. And we use our computer vision algorithms, so expect slightly different results.
Gender estimation is a must-have feature in modern face detection / recognition software. However, I'm not sure where it is used in real-life besides targeted advertising or some toy applications as you mentioned. For now, we will leave it for our users to decide how to use this feature.
Computer vision is a tough thing. Sometimes even Schwarzenegger is identified as female. But overall we reach quite good accuracy on determining gender from face.
Yeah, pricing is not ready yet. Our plan is to leave 5000 face detection/recognition method calls per month for a free plan. We are still working on other plans, check us in a week or two for that.
