MCP for KYC: Run Identity Verification in Natural Language
Blog post from Didit
Didit's Model Context Protocol (MCP) server simplifies the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process by allowing AI agents to create sessions, generate verification links, and poll decisions using natural language prompts, eliminating the need for manual coding with webhooks or polling endpoints. The MCP server, an open standard published under the MIT license, supports over 130 tools across various categories such as identity checks, fraud detection, and transaction monitoring, accessible via Streamable HTTP. Authentication is managed through OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, ensuring user-scoped access without requiring API keys. A full KYC verification, including ID document checks, passive liveness, and face matching, costs $0.33 per session, with users receiving 500 free verifications per month. Didit, backed by Y Combinator and operational in over 220 countries, offers a scalable solution for both prototyping and production-level identity verification workflows, enabling seamless integration with AI agents through a streamlined setup process.
