Microblink BlinkID
Microblink BlinkID extracts information from identity documents for workflows such as digital onboarding, age verification, check-in, visitor management, and KYC and AML compliance. It supports more than 2,500 document types from over 140 countries, and the maker says its machine-learning capture and extraction models support Latin, Cyrillic, and Arabic characters. Capture detects a document when image quality is sufficient; checks cover document data, liveness, manipulation, and integrity signals. Documentation says extraction happens on the device and document data does not leave it. Integration options include SDKs for TypeScript, Kotlin, Swift, React Native, and Flutter, a C SDK for desktop apps and custom hardware, and a self-hosted API that can run alongside a customer backend. The product supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows, as well as API and self-hosted deployments. Microblink offers a 30-day trial with unlimited scans. There is no free plan; pricing is available on request for a custom plan.
