Shift from Conventional methodologies: NEXT Gen KYC with Facial Recognition

Digital Know your customer (KYC) verifications are all set to be the next big vertical, as India progresses towards a digital future. With the rise of Aadhaar and digital methods of processing data, it has now become possible to develop industry-leading KYC systems for use in the subcontinent.

One of the well-known companies for identity verification and user onboarding in India, Accura Scan is making considerable strides in the space. Today we are proud to announce that with one of the fastest onboarding times of any digital KYC company, and full compliance with regulation, Accura Scan is building the foundation of the next generation of KYC.

 

Shift from Conventional methodologies

The company has been operating in the KYC space for a while now, focusing on a 100% digital and instant KYC solution. We also also have an emphasis on accurate data extraction and validation process, using technologies such as OCR to do so.

We are at the cutting edge of using emerging technologies for KYC processes. Overall, the company provides services such as ID using videos for KYC, eSignature options, Aadhaar based KYC and a vault service. Not only this, but in previous blogs we have informed that the solutions can be tailored to the needs of the customer, and highly increases the speed of onboarding while ensuring complete compliance with Aadhaar ordinances.

The solutions can not only extract data from most government issued ID cards such as Aadhaar, PAN, driving license and more, it can also perform ID classification and forgery checks. Moreover, Accura’s Services also provide database checks for the given ID.

This is used in conjunction with either a selfie photo or a selfie video for liveness check. This also creates a backup in the form of a video message for non-repudiation purposes. The platform makes heavy use of AI in many of the products.

As Accura’s CEO Yasin Patel comments –

Our eKYC solution is completely driven using AI. We do simple and accurate things such as Document classification, ID card forgery checks, Liveness check, and a Live Selfie capture, and Face match to do authentication. This is needed the most by organizations”

Identity theft and fraud are issues that many organizations must combat. The challenge of today’s organizations is to create a Seamless User Authentication process while reducing transaction friction and deterring fraud. Accura Face Match allows businesses to establish the genuine identity of their users remotely in real time.

They are not just a user of these technologies. In fact, Accura Scan boasts of having developed the world’s most accurate facial recognition algorithm.
