## Product capabilities

- Driver's license / state ID verification for all 50 US states (AAMVA CDS v01–v12):
  live in-browser PDF417 decode plus independent server-side re-decode (mismatch = tamper signal)
- License-number recomputation forensics for FL / IL / WI (Soundex + DOB/sex day-code)
  and per-state format validation; document-discriminator replay detection
- Barcode ↔ visual-zone cross-checks, IIN ↔ issuing-state consistency, expiry/age/date logic
- Selfie capture with passive liveness detection (presentation-attack detection:
  printouts, screen replays, masks; texture + motion + moiré signals)
- Face matching between the license portrait and live selfie (512-d embeddings,
  cosine similarity, on dedicated NVIDIA T4 GPUs with automatic failover)
- Duplicate-face (1:N) detection against a 2.6M-face network — the same face under a
  different claimed identity is automatically declined
- OFAC SDN sanctions screening with fuzzy name matching and DOB corroboration
  (fresh Treasury data, refreshed weekly); crypto wallet screening available
- Device intelligence: FingerprintJS fingerprinting, IP/geolocation, bot/automation signals
- Hash-chained, tamper-evident audit log on every verification event
- BIPA-compliant consent flows; private media storage with short-lived presigned URLs

## Pricing
