How it works


  • Step 1

    Pictures can be taken from any type of camera

    Users snap a photo of their document using any device that’s convenient. Our OCR technology recognizes images from any camera, easing paperwork for your staff and keeping pass rates high for clients

  • Step 2

    Data is captured and classified automatically

    Don't force your employees and clients to deal with manual data entry. Instead, automatically extract all needed data from a single photo snapped by the user

  • Step 3

    Images are checked for signs of fraud

    To keep fraudsters away, Sumsub automatically performs basic image checks to detect both physical and digital forgery in uploaded documents

  • Step 4

    Human quality control is performed where needed

    Our technologies automatically process 95% of all documents. To guarantee 100% quality, Sumsub reserves human quality control for a small number of complex cases
