What is real-time identity verification as implemented on the Proof Platform?

Real-time identity verification on the Proof Platform involves immediate authentication of a user's identity by cross-referencing provided identification documents against the information provided by the user. This process ensures that the identity verification is swift and efficient, allowing for a seamless user experience. By verifying identities in real time, the platform minimizes the risk of fraudulent activities and enhances security measures.

The emphasis on immediate checks means that there is no reliance on historical data or delayed processes, which helps in maintaining the integrity of the verification process. This method is crucial for applications where timely identification is necessary, such as in financial transactions or onboarding processes for services that require stringent identity verification.
