Digital onboarding increasingly needs to accommodate people who lack or prefer not to use traditional government IDs, particularly in emerging markets, while countering risks from forged documents, AI-generated identities, and deepfakes. Alternative verification evidence can include driver’s licenses, student or employer IDs, proof-of-address documents, digital credentials, biometrics, and, with ethical safeguards, social or behavioral signals; the approach emphasizes combining multiple checks rather than relying on one document. Key challenges include inconsistent document formats and security features, varying KYC/AML rules, fraud exposure, and potential user friction. The piece presents flexible, automated identity-verification platforms as a way to address these issues through document analysis, liveness detection, facial matching, IP and fraud analysis, AML screening, and configurable workflows that adjust to risk and jurisdiction. It highlights Didit’s claimed support for more than 14,000 document types across 220+ countries, modular workflow tools, and compliance certifications as features intended to help businesses expand access, improve conversion, reduce manual-review costs, and maintain security.
