Could you build this?

No Building a reverse face search engine across the public web requires a multi-billion image crawled database and high-scale vector indexing algorithms, which cannot be vibe-coded.

What it would actually take: This architecture requires distributed web scrapers to ingest hundreds of millions of public images, specialized facial recognition embedding models (e.g., InsightFace/ArcFace), and massive vector search infrastructure (like Milvus or Faiss clusters with billion-scale indexing). Significant compute resources, storage infra, and computer vision expertise are necessary.
