What sets us apart
Four decisions we made differently
01
No-App Verification
Your clients verify using their phone browser — no app download, no account creation. They receive an email link, complete the verification in their browser, and you get the result in your portal. We remove the single biggest source of drop-off: asking someone to install something before they can prove who they are.
Browser not app store.
02
Multi-Source Document Validation
Every identity document is checked across three independent signals: barcode data (AAMVA/PDF417 for North American licences), machine-readable zone (MRZ for passports and ID cards), and OCR-extracted text. These signals are cross-checked for consistency — a match across all three dramatically reduces the chance of a fraudulent document passing.
One workflow, three independent signals.
03
Active Liveness Detection
Our liveness check captures three selfie angles — center, left, and right — guided by real-time head-turn prompts. MiniFASNet anti-spoofing analysis runs on every frame to detect printed photos, masks, and screen replay attacks. Passive selfies are easy to spoof. Active liveness detection is not.
Head-turn prompts + anti-spoofing on every verification.
04
Configurable Risk Scoring
The fraud scoring engine runs across 10+ signal categories — face match confidence, liveness result, document expiry, address consistency, barcode-OCR match, device proximity, and more. Each category weight is configurable per organization. Legal firms, mortgage lenders, and insurance brokers each have different risk tolerances — your thresholds, not a generic platform default.
Your rules, your thresholds.

How it works
From first contact to verified client
No training, no integration required on day one. Most teams are verifying their first client within 10 minutes of signing up.
Step 01
You send a verification link
From your Athenty portal, enter a client's email. They receive a secure, time-limited link — no account creation, no app download.
Step 02
Your client verifies on their phone
They scan their government ID, complete the 3-angle liveness selfie, and pass fraud scoring — all from their phone browser.
Step 03
You get a compliance-ready report
Your portal shows the fraud score, biometric match result, document authenticity across all three signals, and a downloadable compliance report.
