About
Identity infrastructure you actually own
AvalKYC is a complete, self-hosted identity and AML platform. We give regulated businesses the verification stack they would otherwise rent from a patchwork of providers — under one roof, on infrastructure they control.
Our mission
Trust, without the toll booth
Verifying who someone is — and whether you can do business with them — has become a tax on building anything regulated. Every document scan, face match, and sanctions check is metered, marked up, and locked behind a vendor.
We took the opposite approach: assemble the entire pipeline from open models and public data, run it on commodity infrastructure, and hand the keys to the business. The result is identity verification that scales with your product instead of your invoice.
What we built
One platform, every check
Identity verification
Document OCR + authenticity, ArcFace face match, passive liveness, and ICAO-9303 NFC ePassport chip authentication.
AML & screening
Sanctions, PEP, and adverse-media screening from open government and public data, with daily ongoing monitoring.
Business & address
KYB against the global LEI register plus proof-of-address extraction — the same pipeline, applied to companies and documents.
What we believe
Principles we build on
Own your stack
Every check runs on infrastructure you control. No per-verification data broker sits between you and your customer's trust.
Developer-first
A clean REST API, signed webhooks, idempotency keys, and a hosted flow you can embed in minutes — with an OpenAPI spec for everything.
Open data sources
We build on free, open, and self-hostable data — government sanctions lists, GLEIF, Wikidata — instead of reselling someone else's feed.
Privacy by design
Data minimization, hashed identifiers, biometrics stored apart from the API, configurable retention, and one-click right-to-erasure.
