Use Cases
KYC Identity Verification: Name match rejection is a common error that occurs during customer onboarding. Financial institutions can use the AI-powered Name Match API to ensure accurate verification even if the name is misspelled or abbreviated. It reduces manual review and enhances the onboarding process.
Database Deduplication: A large database often has multiple entities for the same person due to name variations or input errors. With fuzzy and phonetic name matches, the API helps identify and merge such duplicate records, improving data accuracy.
Fraud Detection: Detect fake IDs and documents with name manipulation. The AI-powered Name Match API detects subtle differences, such as swapped characters, missing letters, or phonetic tweaks.
