Single API for document verification, biometrics, KYC, AML, and fraud detection. Built for developers. Priced by usage.
Trusted by teams building identity flows
One API. Document checks, biometric matching, liveness detection, KYC screening, and AML monitoring — all in a single integration.
Passport scan to verified result in under 5 seconds. Optimised for mobile-first onboarding flows.
Catch sophisticated forgeries before they reach your platform. Border-level security checks on every document.
Support for 254 countries with thousands of document templates. One API, every identity.
Clean REST API with OpenAPI 3.1 spec. Client SDKs for Rust, Python, JavaScript, and more.
Automated KYC workflows with PEP and sanctions screening. Stay compliant without the manual work.
Pay only for what you use. No monthly minimums, no hidden fees. Scale from prototype to production.
Integrate in minutes. Verify in seconds.
User captures a photo of their ID document. Our API handles classification, cropping, and quality checks automatically.
OCR extracts data, MRZ/barcode is cross-checked, security features are validated, and face matching confirms the holder.
Receive a structured JSON response with verification status, extracted data, risk score, and compliance flags — in real time.
Passports, ID cards, driver's licenses, visas, and more — covering 254 countries and territories.
RESTful API with comprehensive OpenAPI 3.1 specification. Client libraries for your favourite language.
// POST /v1/verify — verify a document let result = client.verify( "https://api.valydar.com/v1/verify", VerifyRequest { document_url: "s3://bucket/doc.jpg", checks: vec![ Check::DocumentIntegrity, Check::FaceMatch, Check::Liveness, ], }, ).await?; // Result // { // "status": "verified", // "confidence": 0.98, // "document_type": "passport", // "country": "NL", // "name": "Jane Doe", // "expiry": "2030-05-15" // }
Drop-in JavaScript SDK with capture widgets, liveness checks, and face matching. Works in any browser — no native code needed.
<!-- 1. Include the SDK --> <script src="/sdk/valydar.js"></script> <!-- 2. Initialise --> const sdk = new Valydar({ apiKey: 'your-api-key', apiUrl: 'https://api.dev.valydar.com' }); // 3. Create verification const v = await sdk.createVerification({ checks: ['document', 'liveness', 'face_match'] }); // 4. Upload document const doc = await sdk.uploadDocument( v.id, file, 'passport' ); // 5. Upload selfie (auto liveness) const sfl = await sdk.uploadSelfie( v.id, selfieFile ); // 6. Face match const match = await sdk.faceMatch( v.id, doc.id, sfl.selfie_id ); // 7. Document liveness const live = await sdk.documentLiveness( v.id, doc.id );
Camera or file upload. Auto-crop, quality check, and MRZ extraction on upload.
6-point anti-spoofing: texture, colour, edges, noise, compression, and brightness analysis — all in one call.
Biometric comparison between document photo and selfie. Hue histogram, LBP texture, and SSIM scoring.
Detects screen captures, printouts, and AI-generated forgeries with 6 authenticity checks.
Multi-layered verification combining OCR, biometrics, and hardware-level security checks.
Machine-readable zone parsing for passports, IDs, and visas worldwide.
Optical character recognition supporting 138+ languages and scripts.
Server-side validation of ePassport chips for tamper-proof authentication.
Biometric comparison between document photo and live selfie capture.
Active and passive liveness checks to prevent spoofing attacks.
Detects AI-generated images, screenshots, printouts, and screen captures.
1D and 2D barcode parsing for cross-validation against visual data.
UV, IR, and hologram detection for advanced forgery identification.
From document scan to verified identity — in under 5 seconds. Whether at an airport e-gate or on a mobile phone, the process follows the same six-step pipeline.
Camera or scanner captures the ID document with real-time quality checks.
AI reads all text, decodes the machine-readable zone, and cross-validates checksums.
UV/IR multispectral analysis and document liveness detect forgeries and screen captures.
Biometric comparison between document photo and live selfie — hue, texture, and structure.
Name and identity checked against global PEP, sanctions, and adverse media databases.
Structured JSON response with status, confidence score, extracted data, and full audit trail.
Meet KYC, AML, and data protection requirements out of the box.
