What’s your extraction layer under the hood? BlinkID? Regula? KBY? Another IDV provider? Self-hosted OCR model/extraction layer?

This is an interesting concept but the identity space is extremely crowded. It’s hard to find a specific niche and aggressively scale it unless you already have a strong end-user persona in mind, precisely because interacting with “the real world” is super nuanced and complicated at any appreciable scale.
