Shufti Innovation Room

How leading enterprises are solving complex ID verification challenges with us

At Shufti, we partner with enterprises to build tailored solutions that go beyond standard identity verification. With our in-house technology, we address specific compliance needs, regional requirements, and workflow complexities, delivering what off-the-shelf tools can’t.

Brazil CPF challenges

Handles paper-based cards and multiple document types with precision, resolving OCR issues like stamped-over CPF numbers, mislabeled fields, and checksum edge cases to deliver 99.8% accuracy.

Advanced Japanese name handling

Separates first, middle, and last names to assign name weightages differently for more accurate screening.

Recursive OCR matching

When user-entered names don’t align with OCR results, our system intelligently reprocesses the data to ensure consistency and reliability.

This is just a glimpse of document verification challenges that Shufti has resolved. If you have specific needs, our identity architects are ready to work closely with you to meet your IDV requirements.

Shufti is where the hardest identities still get verified right

Our strength is forged in the toughest realities, where documents arrive with shadows or glare, IDs fade with time, and photos carry the natural marks of ageing. By thriving in these imperfect conditions, we turn the world’s hardest edge cases into seamless verification.

Faded ink or sun-damaged IDs

Reflections/glare on laminated
documents making data hard to read.

Partially torn or folded IDs
where data is obscured.

Overexposed/underexposed photos
from cameras or scanners.

Blurry images due to shaky hands or
low-end cameras.

Long names exceeding database field length
(South Asian / Middle Eastern edge cases).

Photoshopped holograms/seals
on document scans.

AI-generated synthetic IDs with
realistic fonts/seals.

Hyphenated or compound surnames
common in Hispanic/Portuguese IDs.

Multi-script names (e.g., passports or ID cards
with both local + English text).

Screenshots of IDs with altered metadata
(e.g., resolution, EXIF data).

Multiple date formats
(DD/MM/YYYY vs MM/DD/YYYY vs YYYY/MM/DD).

Non-Latin alphabets
(Arabic, Cyrillic, Chinese) in OCR.

Shufti's Doc360 verification

No matter how the document looks, scanned, printed, or digital, we make sure we verify documents from your global users.

Cropped documents

Broken documents

The Program aims to develop a diversified and effective financial sector to support the development of the Saudi Arabia's economy.

Colorcopy documents

For Shufti, digital copies produced with a scanner are also valid. These docs are scanned at a pixel level to check for fraud and deepfakes.

Scanned copies

Shufti recognizes the global shift towards digital records in many countries. Now, your users can send e-documents that can be saved and printed.

E-Documents

We accept documents sealed in protective plastic. This includes IDs commonly laminated for durability.

Laminated documents

Shufti supports screenshots of digital copies of document. This flexibility allows users to submit documents directly from devices.

Screenshots

Black and white printed versions of documents are valid. We process them while verifying essential details such as holograms, watermarks e.t.c.

Black & white copies

Many countries still have handwritten documents and Shufti accepts government issued ID's that are handwritten to deliver on its promise of true inclusivity.

Handwritten documents

A document does not need to have picture-poerfect edges. We work around minor framing issues so your legit customers get in without hassle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is document verification important for businesses?

Document verification ensures businesses know exactly who they are dealing with. It reduces fraud, keeps companies compliant with regulations, builds customer trust, and helps prevent identity theft or financial crimes.

What makes Shufti different from legacy verification providers?

Legacy systems were trained on clean, Latin-script documents and often fail in real-world scenarios. Shufti is built differently; it verifies from difficult regions, uses recursive OCR, advanced fraud detection, and fully in-house technology to protect sensitive customer data.

How does your document verification process work?

The process starts with capturing a document. Shufti checks for authenticity, tampering, or deepfakes, extracts the text using OCR, and then verifies the data with blocklists and trusted databases.

Does Shufti support global document verification, and which documents can be verified?

Yes. Shufti supports verification in more than 240 jurisdictions and handles over 10,000 document types with 99.5% accuracy, even in edge cases or non-Latin languages. We can verify passports, ID cards, driver’s licenses, residence permits, visas, utility bills, bank statements, tax slips, and many other government-issued documents globally.

What factors cause a customer’s verification to fail?

Shufti's advanced OCR technology helps extract data from even the most flawed documents. However, verification can still fail due to low-quality images, expired or incorrect documents, incomplete submissions, or mismatched customer data. To address these scenarios, Shufti offers complete flexibility and customization.

Can document verification be integrated into our existing platform or tech stack?

Yes. Shufti offers flexible APIs, SDKs, and plug-and-play integrations that can be embedded into websites, mobile apps, or enterprise back-end systems. Its technology is designed to fit into both modern and legacy stacks, ensuring businesses can deploy document verification seamlessly without costly overhauls or workflow disruptions.

Which industries use document verification?

Document verification is widely used in industries like banking, fintech, crypto, online gaming, healthcare, travel, and e-commerce, anywhere identity proofing and regulatory compliance are essential.

How will our customers’ data be stored and for how long?

Shufti has in-house technology stack that enhances data privacy. Data is stored in line with compliance regulations, in secure regional servers, and retained only for the required or agreed timeframe.
