DataFab — Identity Check and Document Verification

150

ID types in 200 countries

Passport, national identity card, driving licence and travel document, chosen by issuing country.

Live

Real-time detection

The document is found and framed in the camera as it moves, so the capture is right the first time.

Face

Biometric check

Facial depth, geometry and guided movements confirm a real person is present and match them to the document.

NFC

Chip reader in the mobile app

Hold the phone to the document and the app reads the chip the issuing country signed.

Three sources go in. One identity comes out.

Each source is read on its own, then tested against the other two. Only what agrees is resolved into an identity you can act on.

Four proofs, one check.

The document is found in the camera, its printed data is verified, its chip is read, and the person holding it is matched to it. Each proof has to agree with the others before the check passes.

Eight checks run on every identity: three on the document and its chip, five on the live face.

The same check works for a passport from one country and a national ID card from another, without a separate flow for each.

A photo can copy a face. It cannot copy its depth.

Five biometric checks run on one live capture. Select one to see what it looks at.

Everything one check has to answer, answered in one place.

Is the document real, does it belong to this person, and can the decision be defended later.

Is the document real

Automatic document recognition: Country and document type are identified from the image, with no drop-down to get wrong.
Data extraction in any script: Printed text, machine-readable zones and barcodes are read, including non-Latin alphabets.
Tamper and forgery detection: Edited photos, altered fonts, missing security features and screen recaptures are flagged.
Cross-checks across the document: Printed details, machine-readable zone and chip must agree, and checksums must hold.
Expiry and validity: Expired, not-yet-valid and specimen documents are caught before they reach a reviewer.

Is it this person

Face match: The live face is compared with the document photo and, on mobile, the photo stored on the chip.
Liveness detection: Guided movements and passive signals confirm a real person is in front of the camera.
Deepfake and injection defence: Synthetic faces, masks, replayed video and virtual cameras are detected and refused.
Age and data checks: Date of birth, name and nationality are confirmed against what the customer told you.
Duplicate identity detection: The same face or document appearing under another name is resolved to one identity.

Can you defend the decision

Sanctions, PEP and watchlist screening: The verified identity is screened as part of the same check, not in a separate queue.
Evidence on every step: Each result carries its own confidence and the evidence behind it, ready for audit.
Autonomy you set: Decide which results pass automatically and which are handed to a person to review.
Web, iOS and Android: One flow in the browser and in the mobile app, with the customer picking up where they left off.
Runs inside your boundary: Identity documents and biometrics stay in the environment you designate.

The chip is the strongest proof. The phone can read it.

Modern passports and ID cards carry a chip holding the holder’s details and photo, signed by the country that issued them. The DataFab mobile app reads that chip with the phone’s NFC reader.

Scan the document. The camera reads the printed details that unlock the chip.
Hold the phone to it. The app reads the chip over NFC and checks its signature.
Look at the camera. The live face is compared with the photo stored on the chip.
