Remote and hybrid hiring is now the norm across Canada. But verifying that a candidate is who they claim to be — without meeting in person — has historically been a friction point. Biometric identity verification changes that.
How Biometric Verification Works
Our biometric tool guides candidates through a simple three-step process on their phone or computer:
- The candidate photographs their government-issued ID
- They record a short liveness video (a selfie)
- Our system compares the two in real time using bank-grade AI
Results are returned in minutes, not days.
Why Speed Matters in Competitive Hiring
Top candidates have options. Every day a hire is delayed is a day your competitor might extend an offer. Biometric verification eliminates the need to schedule in-person ID appointments, mail documents, or wait for manual review — meaning your team can move faster at every stage.
Human Oversight Built In
While the AI handles the initial comparison, our human specialists review any flagged cases. This hybrid approach means fewer false positives and a better experience for your candidates.
