Why Regulated Enterprises Trust Shufti

In-House Verification Stack with deployment control

Shufti operates an in-house identity, with no aggregators and no third-party dependencies. Document Verification sits within the wider KYC suite (KYB, KYC, AML Screening, and Face Verification), giving teams consistent performance, clearer accountability, and stronger control over data handling. Deploy in cloud or on-prem to meet stricter security, privacy, and compliance requirements.

Verify documents at enterprise speed

Shufti supports government-issued IDs and supporting documents across global regions and returns outcomes quickly at scale, typically within 10 seconds for enterprise workflows.

ID-optimised OCR

Shufti’s in-house OCR is trained for identity documents, and has been benchmarked against Google OCR across nine languages, matching or exceeding it in six, including Arabic (92.17% vs 90.24%), Japanese/Chinese (86.87% vs 82.89%), and Burmese (94.41% vs 64.36%), so you spend less time on manual correction in multilingual onboarding.

Built for complex scripts and varied ID formats

Shufti standardises verification across complex scripts and mixed national ID ecosystems, so policy and outcomes stay consistent across regions. Proprietary OCR and normalisation handle native character sets (including Devanagari, Ge’ez, Arabic, and Kanji), then transliterate and standardise fields for downstream matching and cross-border checks. This approach stays reliable across older layouts, legacy formats, and mixed-language documents that generic OCR engines often misread or reject.

POWERING ORIGINALITY CHECKS ACROSS REGIONS AND SCRIPTS

End-to-end document verification for regulated onboarding

Originality & Authenticity Engine

Screen recapture and replay defence

Detects screen recapture, scan and print replay, and screenshot-style submissions using file- and capture-level indicators, so onboarding is not fooled by injected or second-hand documents.

Screen recapture for document verification

GenAI & Synthetic Document Detection

Flags synthetic artefacts and generator-style patterns early, including AI-produced textures and suspicious digital fingerprints

GenAI and synthetic document detection visual

Tamper & Manipulation Detection

Surfaces edits, swaps, copy-move, slicing, and recompression anomalies with reviewable signals, so authenticity is assessed with evidence, not visual guesswork.

Tamper and manipulation detection signals diagram

Continuous document verification Process

Identifies expired and soon-to-expire documents, verifies MRZ and barcode checksums where available, and applies country-specific date rules to surface invalid submissions before approval.

Doc360 capture resilience

Pre-upload image quality checks

Catches avoidable capture issues such as crop, glare (including laminated glare), blur, obstruction, and damage, then requests a recapture only when needed.

Submission-Type Aware Document Validation

Applies the right checks based on how the document was produced or shared: photo, scan, e-document, colour copy, or black-and-white copy, so the same policy holds across mixed document ecosystems.

Submission-type aware document validation diagram

Copy, reproduction, and reuse signals

Flags reproduction cues and high-risk submission patterns (scan signatures, screen capture indicators, copy traits) to spot second-hand documents and repeated misuse earlier.

Copy, reproduction and reuse signal detection visual

Low-signal extraction resilience

Maintains extraction and integrity checks in low-signal conditions such as low contrast, poor lighting, print wear, and handwritten fields (including non-Latin scripts), so outcomes stay consistent across regions and scripts.

Low-signal extraction resilience illustration

Cross-verification and review outputs

Multi-document cross-verification

Verifies each document independently, then cross-checks key fields across proofs (for example, passport vs proof of address) to confirm identity coherence.

Multi-document cross-verification interface

Fraud memory and deduplication

Flags document reuse and repeat-attempt patterns to reduce account cycling and re-registrations.

Fraud memory and deduplication system visual

Review-ready outcomes

Returns coded reasons and supporting signals so compliance and operations teams can resolve cases faster and defend outcomes with evidence.

Supported document types

Supports government-issued IDs including passports, national ID cards, driving licences, residence permits and visas, plus supporting documents such as proof of address (for example, bank statements and utility bills), across 250+ regions.

Document Intelligence

Affordability and vulnerability assessment

Helps compliance teams understand whether players are gambling within their means, and spot vulnerability early before it becomes a compliance issue or regulatory exposure.

AI-powered financial document extraction

Uses proprietary AI and OCR to transform raw financial documents into actionable, explainable risk profiles for affordability checks, behavioural risk, and compliance reporting.

AI-powered financial document extraction interface

Explainable risk outcomes

Returns an overall player risk level (Low, Medium, High) with a rule-by-rule breakdown to defend decisions with confidence. Generates clear, human-readable reports and routes higher-risk cases to human review, while enabling faster decisions for low-risk players.

Explainable risk outcomes – Low, Medium, High levels

Supported financial document types

Bank statements, credit card statements, tax bills, and property/local tax notices.

Capture

The user captures or uploads an image of their ID document.

02

STEP 02

Shufti checks image quality – glare, blur, crop

03

STEP 03

Authenticity check and key field extraction

Authenticate & Extract

Shufti checks authenticity and integrity (tamper, replay/re-capture signals, synthetic patterns) and extracts key fields.
