Automated Identity Verification: Streamline Onboarding and Compliance

With the ever-increasing shift to digitalisation, every business, such as banking industries, fintech, RegTech and crypto, is facing growing pressure to fast-track user onboarding processes without compromising safety or compliance. Traditional methodologies now seem incapable of keeping pace with anything. This includes manual ID checks, traditional KYC, and other usual methods. These are not just time-consuming but also error-prone and vulnerable to fraud. 

This is where Amani steps in. Their AI-powered onboarding solution streamlines identity verification by using advanced document analysis, biometric verification, and real-time fraud detection. Everything runs on autopilot, allowing businesses to verify users in seconds without compromising on security. 

In this article, we’ll look at how real-time identity verification is helping businesses onboard users faster and simplify the entire process of identity checks. 

What Is AI-Powered Video KYC and Identity Verification?

AI-Powered Video KYC and Identity Verification is the process by which artificial intelligence is used to automatically authenticate the user's identity during onboarding. This technology, unlike the slow manual process, verifies ID documents, matches biometric data and flags suspicious activity- everything in real time. 

Key features include:

• Fully automated real-time IDV & biometrics verifying users in seconds.

• Meet KYC, AML, CIP, and GDPR requirements.

• ​​Instantly detect fraud and support new document types in under 48 hours.

• Leverage 100% Proprietary and the latest technology stacks.

These smart checks help businesses to onboard faster while staying fully compliant.
