Frequently Asked Questions
How many languages and document types does Shufti OCR support?
Nearly 20+ scripts and 100supported languages, including right-to-left and ideogram-based scripts. The engine reads any issued document types across passports, ID cards, driving licences, and address documents.
How is name transliteration handled across scripts?
Names in Arabic, Cyrillic, and Chinese Pinyin are converted into Latin-script equivalents while preserving phonetic accuracy. Diacritic normalisation standardises accented characters. First, middle, and last name slots are populated separately for downstream matching.
What semantic validations are built into the output?
Future birthdates, invalid ZIP codes, mismatched country and phone codes, and ICAO-incompatible passport numbers are flagged. Common OCR misreads such as O versus 0, l versus I, and S versus 5 are detected and corrected.
In what format is the extracted data delivered?
JSON or XML, with each field in its own slot. Dates normalise to YYYY-MM-DD ISO. Address strings decompose into street, city, state, postal code, and country.
Does the OCR engine handle handwritten text?
Yes. The Handwritten Text Recognition module extracts handwritten signatures, dates, and numerical values across printed and cursive styles. Stroke-based analysis improves accuracy in handwritten address fields.
How does geospatial anomaly detection work alongside OCR?
The user's IP location, mobile device GPS, and prior verification history are compared against the document address and the issuing country. Proxy and VPN masking, and frequent address changes across regions, are flagged for fraud review.
What happens when a language or document type is not directly supported?
An expert review team handles manual extraction and verification for unsupported languages. The structured output format is preserved so downstream integration is unaffected.
