Visual Identity Verification

Document verification: Authenticates government-issued IDs, passports, and mobile driver's licenses (mDLs) using AI-powered document scanning and data extraction.

Biometric facial matching: Compares a live selfie against the face on the submitted ID document to confirm the person presenting the ID is who they claim to be.

Liveness detection: Confirms the selfie is captured from a real, present person — detecting spoofing attempts using photos, screens, or masks.

Mobile driver's license (mDL) support: Accepts digital IDs stored on a user's device, compliant with ISO/IEC 18013-5 and ISO 23220 standards for secure mDL verification.

Fraud Detection

Real-time fraud scoring: Runs 20+ proprietary fraud models simultaneously during every verification, generating a dynamic risk score based on configurable business logic.

Barcode validation: Compares barcode data against the front of the ID to detect mismatched or fraudulent documents and confirm name consistency.

Tamper and forgery detection: Reviews ID images for signs of digital alteration, overlays, or structural inconsistencies against Vouched's proprietary document template library.

Face reuse detection: Identifies abnormal patterns where the same face appears repeatedly across recent verification attempts, flagging potential fraud rings.

Data Verification

PII validation: Validates name, address, phone number, and email against proprietary identity graphs using smart fuzzy matching to minimize false declines.

Driver's license verification: Provides deterministic DMV checks in 44 states plus exclusive California coverage, reaching 27M+ additional drivers for the broadest U.S. coverage.

Date of birth verification: Confirms age accuracy for age-restricted services, compliance requirements, and fraud protection.

IP risk analysis: Analyzes the user's IP address in real time to detect suspicious patterns and add an additional fraud signal to the verification decision.

SSN verification: Supports both 4- and 9-digit SSN validation across industries, with SSA eCBSV access for financial institutions requiring government-verified results.

AML screening: Checks users against global watchlists, sanctions lists, and politically exposed persons (PEP) databases in real time for compliance and risk management.
