A proof of identity optical character recognition (OCR) data extractor scans and accurately captures information from identity documents, regardless of format or language. Upload POI documents in PDF, JPG or PNG formats. The OCR technology first converts the documents into a text layer, ensuring all text (even from scans, photos or handwriting) is captured. Affinda's AI models then identify and extract key fields such as name, document type, number, date and reference numbers, transforming them into structured, usable data.

This automation eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors and saves time. Once the identity data is captured and structured, our AI proof of identity processing pipeline can apply machine validation and post-processing to enable seamless integration with onboarding, compliance and CRM systems.

Organizations in financial services, banking, compliance and insurance rely on Affinda's AI for their identity verification, customer onboarding and KYC processes, streamlining workflows and improving overall efficiency.
