Trusted biometric onboarding infrastructure · Kazakhstan

Facex — biometric client verification for the Signex / Verex ecosystem

Verify that a live selfie belongs to the same person as a trusted document or profile photo. Face match, liveness, risk scoring, audit trail and partner API for banks, MFIs, pawnshops and e-signature flows.

1-to-1 verification only · no mass identification · no custom model training for MVP

Problem

Online onboarding breaks at the moment of trust

A partner may have an application photo and a user selfie, but without a unified process it is hard to prove match, check liveness, store consent and recover audit evidence for security teams.

Photos can be spoofed

Screenshots, printed photos and replay from another phone pass weak checks.

No unified history

Results live in CRM fields, messengers and manual notes instead of a proper audit trail.

Decisions are hard to explain

Compliance needs scores, reasons, threshold versions and manual review.

Integrations get expensive

Banks, MFIs and signing products need a simple API — not a new ML project.

Solution

Facex turns biometrics into a managed enterprise workflow

01

Create session

The partner creates a verification session via API and receives a capture URL.

02

Provide reference

A trusted photo is uploaded from a document, profile or Verex flow.

03

Check selfie

The service checks quality, liveness, extracts embeddings and compares faces.

04

Return decision

The partner receives decision, scores, failure reasons, callback and audit evidence.

Not a face-recognition demo — identity verification infrastructure

1-to-1 face verification

Compare a live selfie with a trusted reference. No 1-to-many person search.

Active liveness

Blink / smile / head turn for MVP, ready for passive liveness later.

Risk score

Combines face score, liveness, quality, retries and device/IP metadata.

Manual review

Borderline cases go to reviewers with evidence instead of silent rejection.

Partner callbacks

HMAC-signed callbacks with retry schedule for enterprise integrations.

Secure templates

Embeddings are never exposed by public API, encrypted and versioned.

Partners and API keys

Separate keys, rate limits, IP controls and audit logs per partner.

Verex ecosystem

Facex complements Verex ID data and Signex EDS signing instead of replacing them.

Where value appears fastest

Banks and fintech

Remote onboarding and client confirmation before sensitive operations.

MFIs and pawnshops

Applications, contracts and collateral tickets with less fraud and manual review.

EDS / Signex

Connect contract signing to live-client confirmation.

Branch networks

One client verification standard for service points and operators.

API for fast integration

The partner system creates a session, uploads reference and live selfie, runs verification and receives a structured result. The biometric service remains internal and is not exposed to the public internet.

Security and legal caution from day one

Biometric templates are treated as sensitive personal data and are not returned by public APIs.

User consent, purpose, retention policy and manual review are part of the product — not post-factum documentation.

Facex does not claim government status or certification. Government database integrations require legal authorization.

Before / after

Before

– selfies sent manually

– no liveness

– decisions not explainable

– audit assembled later

– branches work differently

After

✓ single verification session

✓ face score + liveness

✓ failure reasons and thresholds

✓ audit trail by design

✓ API + callbacks for every branch

Pilot pricing

Pilot

for first integrations

Business

for networks and products

Multiple partners/branches, callbacks, SLA, retention policy and CRM/1C integrations.

Enterprise

for regulated teams

Dedicated infrastructure, advanced security, legal package and custom liveness model.

FAQ

Is this government biometrics?

No. Facex is commercial identity-verification infrastructure for company workflows.

Do we need to train our own model?

Not for MVP. We use proven face embedding/liveness components and focus on workflow, API, audit and security.

Is this 1-to-many identification?

No. MVP performs 1-to-1 verification: is this live person the trusted reference person?

Can it integrate with Verex?

Yes. Verex can provide structured data and documents; Facex adds the biometric verification layer.

Where are embeddings stored?

Templates are not exposed through public APIs; they are encrypted and stored with model, version and retention rules.
