VERIFICATION FLOW

How It Works

Six verification steps. One API call. Results in under 3 seconds.

6-step verification flow: Document Capture, OCR & MRZ, Selfie Capture, Liveness Detection, Face Match, Verified

CORE CAPABILITIES

Built for Real-World Identity Fraud

Every verification layer is purpose-built to catch what others miss — from printed photo attacks to document tampering.

Document OCR & MRZ Extraction

Extract and validate data from passports, national IDs, and driver's licenses. MRZ parsing with check digit validation for TD1, TD2, and TD3 formats. PDF417 barcode reading for US/CA licenses.

5-Layer Liveness Detection

Texture analysis (LBP), frequency analysis (FFT moiré), challenge-response (blink/smile), temporal consistency across video frames, and deep injection detection. Blocks photos, screens, masks, and video replays.

FaceNet Biometric Matching

512-dimensional face embeddings with cosine similarity scoring. Compare document photo against live selfie with configurable thresholds. Production-grade accuracy with sub-second processing.

Document Authenticity & Deduplication

5-point tamper detection — template matching, font consistency, compression analysis, and edge integrity. Cross-account deduplication via face embeddings, document numbers, and image hashing.
