KYC / AML Compliance
FaceKYC is an innovative biometric and document verification solution designed to authenticate identities securely, quickly, and without friction directly from the user’s smartphone. Originally built as a high-precision tool for military applications—where instant identification of authorized personnel in field conditions is critical—this technology has been adapted to the civil domain to strengthen compliance in banking, finance, insurance, and digital services. Its primary focus is enabling Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) processes, preventing money laundering, identity fraud, and illicit activities, without compromising personal data protection.
Key Features
Verification System with Advanced Technologies
The system combines advanced AI and image processing for an end-to-end verification completed in under 30 seconds:
- Biometric Face Recognition: maps and compares facial features in real time, ensuring accurate matching with the ID document image.
- Liveness Detection: passive/active analysis (blinks, head turns) to block presentation attacks (photos, videos, masks), minimizing spoofing risk.
- OCR & MRZ Reading: automatic parsing of the machine-readable zone on passports/IDs to extract key data with high accuracy, reducing manual errors.
- NFC Capture: for e-chip documents, reads encrypted data contactlessly and cross-checks with the visual capture.
- Intuitive Interface: the user aligns their face inside a guided circle; processing is automatic with real-time feedback (e.g., “Centered”, “Better lighting”).
Original Military Application and Transition to Civil Sector
In its military origin, FaceKYC verified soldiers, allies, or restricted access in remote environments where reliability prevented infiltration and operational mistakes. This robustness—tested in low-light and mobile conditions—was transferred to the civil world, aligned with GDPR (EU), PSD2, and global AML/KYC standards (FATF).
In banking/fintech it accelerates remote onboarding for account opening or high-value transactions, detecting risks such as forged IDs or sanctioned entities (PEP/Sanctions). It also supports insurance, telecom, and e-commerce use cases with stronger security and minimal friction.
Data Protection and Privacy Focus
FaceKYC prioritizes user sovereignty and strict GDPR/CCPA compliance. All capture, processing, and comparison occur on-device (edge), avoiding transmission of raw images or biometrics. The relying party only receives “Yes” (verified match) or “No” (failed validation).
- No Central Storage: biometrics, selfies, and documents are not stored on servers; data is discarded after local verification.
- Explicit Consent: the user authorizes every step; logs are encrypted for internal audits.
- Audit & Transparency: anonymized reports support regulatory inspections without exposing personal data.
This architecture mitigates breach risks and builds trust by giving users full control over their information.
Key Benefits
- Efficiency: cuts verification from hours to seconds and increases onboarding conversion.
- Security: lower false positives with stronger anti-fraud than legacy methods.
- Scalability: API integration, multi-language, 200+ document types supported.
- Cost-Effective: pay-per-use model, no extra hardware.
In short, FaceKYC makes identity verification seamless and secure, delivering AML/KYC compliance without sacrificing privacy. contact us
