Enhancing Trust in I-9s
OCR tools, or Optical Character Recognition tools, are a type of software designed to convert different types of documents, such as scanned paper documents or government issued ID documents.
This technology recognizes text within the digital images and converts it to a machine-readable form. ZipID uses OCR to facilitate the automated extraction of information from the face of documents, which is then used to autofill required fields on the Form I-9. The user manually checks to make sure the extracted information is completely accurate prior to auto-filling the I-9.
By cross-checking that fields are logically consistent and security features intact, and images have not been tampered with or are synthetic morphs or spoofs, and are live with associated metadata during image capture.
A high-resolution scan or photo of the ID or document is taken. OCR tools often use edge detection and contrast enhancement to prepare for accurate reading.
OCR algorithms convert visual text on the ID/document into machine-readable data. This includes names, document numbers, birth dates, issue dates, expiration dates, etc.
The extracted data is checked against known templates and data formats for the document type.
A 1:1 match refers to the process where a biometric security system compares a live facial image (typically a selfie) with a single stored image, such as the government-issued photo on an ID, to verify identity.
Our 1:1 biometric verification process is compliant with standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and is accurate at 99.998%.
The key to 1:1 identity matching lies in its precise verification of a specific individual, ensuring that the person claiming to be someone is truly who they say they are, thus also assuring against identity fraud. Unlike 1:N matching, which searches through large databases to identify unknown individuals, 1:1 matching provides accurate and reliable results of a presented image to a presented individual.
With ZipID’s cutting-edge biometric technology, you can confidently trust that your employees’ identities are verified accurately and efficiently, streamlining your I-9 compliance process. ZipID enhances I-9 verification by ensuring a smooth, secure, and hassle-free experience for your HR team.
We capture a real-time image of the individual's face using a camera or similar device, like a phone or computer.
This live image is then compared to the pre-stored image on the individual’s government-issued ID. View Image

All US employers! Anyone who hires employees to work in the United States must complete I-9s for their new hires or rehires, and failing to do so can result in high fines in the federal government decides to conduct an audit.
It is completely the employer's choice. Facial authentication can assure that a new hire is who they say they are, and the ID they present matches their live self.
This is especially important for remote workers, or industries subject to immigration fraud or economic espionage from foreign adversaries who may pose as Americans for access to proprietary information.
For 30 years the I-9 has been one of the biggest headaches in new hire onboarding. I have struggled with the 3 day time limit to get I-9s done, including the worry that the IDs presented are both the correct document, and legitimate. ZipID fixes both issues, and more, with a welcoming user interface. With its I-9 reminders, ID workflow that takes the guesswork out of employee ID presentation, to wet signatures no matter where an employee is located, ZipID is a major risk mitigation tool for any business, any size!
