Kairos

Founded 2012

Verify identity documents and authenticate users with facial recognition and liveness checks

Pricing model

Free Tier, Paid

You can use Kairos to verify user identities, scan government-issued documents, and detect fraud using a single API call. It inspects over four thousand document types from across two hundred countries, reads text and machine-readable zones, and flags tampering. The system performs biometric face matching between selfies and photo identification while running passive liveness checks to stop deepfakes and spoofing. You can also estimate customer age directly from photos to maintain regulatory compliance across gaming, financial services, and retail onboarding workflows.
