How it works
Processes
When you configure this product, you choose which automated processes apply. Typical options include:- Document Details Reading (OCR) — Extracts text and structured fields from the document images.
- Age Restriction — Evaluates whether the holder meets your age rules using extracted date of birth or equivalent fields.
- Document Template Matching — Confirms the capture matches expected layouts for the document type and issuer.
- Document Authenticity Check — Runs forensic checks for tampering, inconsistency, and authenticity signals.
- Document Portrait and Biometric Selfie Face Match — Compares the document portrait to a biometric selfie when your flow includes both.
- Document Duplicate Detection — Detects whether the same document was used in another verification.
Inputs
The captures your flow collects are:- Document Front Side Image — The primary image of the document.
- Document Back Side Image — The reverse side when the document type requires it (often paired with Require Multi-Side Document Upload in tool settings).
Tool settings
Open the Tool settings section in the product settings modal. The list can scroll; use the information icons beside each control for field-level help.| Setting | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Enable Multiple Documents Upload | Allows users to upload multiple documents in a single verification step. If disabled, only one document is required. |
| Enable Document Type Filtering | Enable to filter documents by country and document type. |
| Document Authenticity Verification | Checks and validates the authenticity of the document and its security features. If disabled, only OCR will be performed on the document. |
| Require Multi-Side Document Upload | Individual will be required to upload both sides of a document. If disabled, only the front side of the document will be required. |
| Perform Custom Watchlist Check | Enable custom watchlist checking for document verification. |
| Perform Face Compare | The document photo will be compared to the biometric selfie photo. |
| Perform Duplicate Detection | Checks if the individual has previously registered with the same document. If enabled, you can set the action to take when a duplicate is detected. |
| Allow Document Upload | When enabled, allows file upload in addition to (or instead of) live capture, depending on your integration. |
| Age Limit | Numeric threshold used with age-related rules (for example 0 when you rely on other process settings; adjust per your policy). |
| Return Full Resolution Document Images | Returns the full resolution and uncropped images from the document. |
| Return Face Image | Returns the cropped face image extracted from the document. |
| Return Signature Image | Returns the cropped signature image extracted from the document. |
| Allow Blur Filter | Allows the use of a blur filter on the document image to enhance OCR accuracy. |
| Allow Cropped Document Image | Allows the use of a cropped document image for verification. |
| Maximum Allowed Mismatches Per Field | How many OCR or field-level mismatches are tolerated before the verification fails or flags review (for example 0 for strict matching). |
| Receive Images in Webhooks | Controls how strict the photo forgery detection should be. Higher levels mean stricter checks but may reject more genuine documents. |
| Photo Forgery Match Level | Choose 1–10 on the grid (1 = least strict, 10 = most strict). Controls how strict photo forgery detection is; higher levels apply stricter checks but may reject more genuine documents. |
| Static Security Features Match Level | Choose 1–10 on the grid. Controls how strictly static security features (prints, patterns, embedded elements) are verified; higher levels improve fraud detection but may increase false rejections. |
| Screen Match Level | Choose 1–10 on the grid. Controls how strictly the system checks for screen replay (document shown on a display); higher levels better detect digital screens but may sometimes reject valid physical documents in difficult lighting. |
