Identity Verification Platform
Video-based identity verification platform with B2B access, multi-role reviewer tools, and automated compliance workflows
Project Overview
A custom-built identity verification platform designed for internal compliance teams and enterprise B2B clients. Users upload video and image-based identity submissions, verified through a structured reviewer dashboard with role-based access. The platform features automated workflows, OTP authentication (SMS & Email), fraud detection triggers, audit logs, and secure data handling built for speed, accuracy, and compliance with EU standards.
What We Set Out to Achieve
Clear goals drove every technical and design decision throughout the project.
Create a secure video-based identity verification process
Support multi-role access for internal and B2B compliance teams
Automate fraud detection, reviewer assignment, and case escalation
Enable OTP-based identity confirmation via SMS and email
Ensure data protection, auditability, and compliance with EU standards
Challenges We Overcame
Every project has obstacles. Here's how we turned challenges into opportunities for innovation.
Secure Video & Image-Based Verification Flow
Users recorded videos and uploaded identity photos, which required privacy protection, controlled access, and secure handling without public exposure.
Solution
Files were never publicly accessible or downloadable. All media access was routed through authenticated API endpoints with role validation, token verification, and time-limited access, preventing unauthorized downloads, sharing, or scraping.
Multi-Role B2B Review Management
Enterprise clients required tiered access for Submitters, Reviewers, Compliance Officers, and Admins, each with different permissions and workflow actions.
Solution
Designed and implemented a full RBAC system with permission-based access, case grouping, reviewer assignment, comment threads, audit logs, and multi-stage verification workflows.
OTP Authentication and Submission Integrity
Identity submissions needed secure verification using both email and SMS-based OTP codes, preventing duplicate or fraudulent attempts.
Solution
Integrated a custom OTP service via Fastify, using time-limited tokens and device-linked verification to ensure submission integrity across email, SMS, and secure login attempts.
How We Built It
The technical architecture and decisions that made this project a success.
Fastify-Based API Architecture
Built an API-first backend using Fastify, optimized for file handling, role-based access, OTP validation, and secure session flows.
Authenticated & Protected File Access
Verification videos and identity photos were never publicly exposed. Access was only possible via authenticated API requests, using role validation and time-limited tokens preventing file access, sharing, or scraping.
Custom Reviewer Dashboard
Developed a dashboard for internal reviewers to manage cases, verify content, leave review notes, and store audit logs.
OTP Authentication Middleware
Added SMS and email OTP authentication, using a custom Fastify service with short-lived token generation and retry protection.
Results That Matter
Measurable outcomes that demonstrate the project's success.
Cut manual fraud detection effort by 70%
Reduced average verification time to just 2.1 minutes
80% of reviewer actions became automated or pre-assigned
Successfully handled 1k+ identity submissions securely
