How DIVE API works
Our digital identity verification (DIVE) API uses ID scanning and selfies to securely verify user identity. Customers simply open your app or click on a link sent via SMS to begin the process.
Snap a photo of the front of the ID
The customer will use the camera on their mobile device to capture an image of the front of their ID. Using optical character recognition (OCR) our software ingests all of their identity data.
Snap a photo of the back of the ID
Next, the customer takes a photo of the back of the ID. Our software ingests and reads the data stored in the 2D (PDF417) barcode and compares it to the data on the front of the ID.
Selfie face match
The customer is guided through a series of liveness checks and anti-spoofing exercises while our software creates a 3D mesh template of their face and compares it to the photo on their ID.
As soon as the application detects a quality image it snaps a photo and confirms document type. Users can scan their IDs in less than 10 seconds with only 2 clicks.

Digital identity verification
Barcode security checks
Many tools can read and parse the data on the ID, but our remote ID validation takes it a step further by performing more than 100 algorithmic checks on the ID’s barcode. This allows us to catch low quality fakes and fake IDs with 2D barcode (PDF417 anomalies.
- Data format check
- State “tell” check
- Barcode position check
- Jurisdictional check
- Barcode size check
- Front / back crossmatch
Digital identity verification
Face matching via selfie
We harness the power of your customer’s mobile phone camera to perform identity verification using a live selfie video. Our face match technology easily confirms that the live user is the same individual as the person in the ID photo.
How long does your face matching take?
The face matching process takes <10 seconds from the time the user opens their mobile camera. The digital identity verification API efficiently creates a mesh template from the ID photo, and then rapidly applies it to the live user on camera, returning a result as soon as it determines whether the face is a match or not.
Does DIVE API face match include anti-spoofing?
Yes. The system performs multiple anti-spoofing checks, protecting against photo attacks, replay attacks, and 3D mask attacks.
Does DIVE API face match include liveness checks?
Yes. We offer multiple, randomized liveness checks embedded into the selfie workflow.

How to integrate DIVE API
What operating systems are compatible with DIVE API?
DIVE API is a web-based API, which can be integrated into any web-based tool. If you require full, native integration you can leverage similar tools using our SDKs.
What percentage of individuals is DIVE API able to successfully verify?
We strive to verify 97% of individuals in 12 seconds or less.
How do you calculate risk threshold inside DIVE?
Our customers have ultimate flexibility to place emphasis on each of the variables related to identity verification, ultimately creating their own blended risk score an determination of which transactions are a “pass” and which are escalated for manual review.
