AU10TIX unveils AnyDoc AI tool to combat document fraud risk
AU10TIX has launched AnyDoc Authentication, extending its fraud detection and authentication services to cover a broader range of non-identity documents frequently used in various business operations. The new capability targets documents such as utility bills, bank statements, and tax filings, which have become common vectors for fraudsters who seek to bypass conventional identity checks. AnyDoc Authentication leverages artificial intelligence, forensic forgery detection, and metadata analysis to expose forged, tampered, or synthetic documents. According to AU10TIX, the system performs more than 150 AI-driven forgery tests and processes documents in 5–20 seconds, achieving up to 99.99% accuracy and reducing manual reviews by 90%. Detection features AnyDoc Authentication is designed to flag manipulated text, font inconsistencies, synthetically generated content, and anomalies in document structure. It also validates metadata by cross-checking elements such as timestamps, issuing bodies, and creation trails to ensure document integrity. The product supports the verification of both PDFs and image files without compromising accuracy. Document classification is performed within three seconds, enabling businesses to achieve near-instant authentication and decision-making capabilities. AU10TIX Chief Executive Officer Yair Tal said, "Effective fraud prevention demands more than identity verification; it is built on ensuring the authenticity of every supporting document. With AnyDoc Authentication, we are redefining the standard for non-ID document authentication, enabling organizations to detect fraud at its source, before it infiltrates their systems. This is more than just a security feature; it's a critical layer of defense that fosters trust, mitigates risk, and closes the gaps fraudsters aim to exploit." The system has been customised for use in regulatory compliance frameworks including Know Your Customer (KYC), Know Your Business (KYB), and Anti-Money Laundering (AML). It cross-references data extracted from the documents with trusted third-party sources. This process is designed to minimise the occurrence of false positives, facilitate compliance workflows, and mitigate the risk of synthetic and deepfake document attacks. Industry support AnyDoc Authentication is designed for sectors where both the volume and risk of document fraud are high. In education, it enables the validation of enrolment documents, scholarships, and institutional partnership records. The finance and banking sector can use the tool to identify fraudulent loan applications, tampered financial statements, and unauthorised tax filings. For corporate compliance teams, AnyDoc Authentication facilitates the authentication of supplier contracts, business registrations, and tax records required for Know Your Business (KYB) processes. In travel and hospitality, it can be used to verify address proofs, a variety of travel documents, and materials used for guest onboarding. The product is also available to organisations in the crypto and payments sectors for the detection of fraudulent merchant registrations and the authentication of cross-border KYC submissions. Healthcare providers may use it to confirm the authenticity of insurance documents, prescriptions, and provider credentials. Operational context AU10TIX stated that AnyDoc Authentication aims to provide real-time fraud detection and support organisations in implementing compliance frameworks. By automating the analysis and validation of non-ID documents, the company believes the solution can enable businesses to scale their onboarding and due diligence operations more efficiently while maintaining regulatory standards.
