ID-Detect:
Advanced AI Document Fraud Detection

What is ID-Detect?

ID-Detect is an additional layer of fraud prevention to futureproof your onboarding process. As generative-AI fraud attacks evolve, visual inspections and database checks can’t spot sophisticated deepfakes or synthetic IDs shown on a screen. Legacy digital tools also can’t keep pace with emerging fraud threats.

ID Detect FAQs

How does AI-powered document fraud detection actually work?

AI turns every ID image into a checklist and runs a series of instant checks:

Looks for the document itself. It confirms there’s a real, three-dimensional passport or licence in front of the camera—not a screenshot, print-out or deepfake.
Checks the face matches the person. A quick selfie-liveness test proves the applicant is physically present and the portrait on the ID hasn’t been swapped.
Verifies the data inside. Machine-read zones, barcodes, expiry dates and security patterns are cross-checked against trusted databases so single-digit edits or synthetic IDs get flagged.
Learns from every attempt. The model retrains on fresh fraud samples every week, so it keeps spotting brand-new tricks without you rewriting rules.

Fake documents are caught automatically and genuine customers are onboarded seamlessly, having proven they possess a genuine real ID and are the owner of that ID. All supported by a robust automated audit trail with insights on submissions flagged as suspicious.

What kinds of generative-AI fraud does document fraud detection technology catch?

Screen-replay & video-loop attacks – AI spots inconsistencies that give away on-screen playback in document fraud detection solutions like ID-Detect by ID-Pal.
Photocopy/print & photograph forgeries – 3D surface-depth and texture analysis reveal the flatness of a print-out or the colour-shift of a re-photograph, even when the copy is crystal-clear to the eye.
AI-generated or digitally manipulated attacks – deepfakes leave evidence behind and ID-Detect’s technology can surface this within milliseconds.
Portrait-swap or injection attacks – Feature-warping algorithms compare embedded portrait pixels against the live selfie, flagging swapped faces, overlays or pasted QR/MRZ segments.

How can businesses stop AI-driven document fraud?

Deploy a multi-layer AI document fraud detection tool like ID-Pal’s ID-Detect.
Its computer-vision engine proves a physical document is in front of the camera and flags deepfakes, photocopies, screen replays and portrait swops.
Add extra signals, not extra friction.
Pair AI-powered document analysis with biometric and database checks so fraudsters have to beat several defences at once, while genuine customers still onboard in minutes.
Let the model keep learning for you.
Choose a service that retrains on the latest fraud samples every week, so it spots new tricks without you hiring more analysts.
Tune risk rules to your business.
Tighten thresholds for high-value products or risky geos; send only borderline cases to manual review instead of blocking good users.
Insist on audit-ready evidence.
Every pass/fail should come with images, timestamps and a tamper-proof log so compliance teams and regulators can verify decisions in seconds.
