For Regulated Entities
Document verification for regulated entities.
Audrie enables banks, AML/CTF reporting entities, and compliance teams to verify counterparty documents, generate auditable due diligence records, and demonstrate to regulators that they relied on authenticated evidence.
The Document Fraud Problem
Major lenders report that the majority of discovered lending fraud involves tampered official documents which are modified to show inflated income figures before being submitted to lenders as evidence of financial position.
AI-generated identity documents and financial records are increasingly sophisticated and often indistinguishable from genuine documents by visual inspection. Detection tools are engaged in an arms race with generation tools, and detection cannot win.
Current defences – certified copies, manual document checks, and visual inspection – are inadequate. A certifier confirming a certified copy cannot verify that the underlying document is genuine. The certification itself is trivially forgeable.
Audrie as a Compliance Tool
A Verifiable Record of Reliance
Regulated entities are required to demonstrate why they relied on a document. Audrie provides a mechanism to do this that is auditable, traceable, and immutable.
When you verify a document through Audrie, you receive a Verification Certificate – a downloadable, system-authenticated record that proves:
- —Which document you checked
- —When you checked it
- —What result you received
- —Who authenticated the document and when
- —The current status of the authenticator at the time of verification
This certificate is your evidence to regulators (e.g. AUSTRAC, APRA), and others that you performed due diligence on the documents you relied upon.
A Higher Standard Than Certified Copies
Certified copies are the current industry standard for document verification. A certified copy confirms only that a named individual has seen the original and believes it to be genuine. It does not confirm:
- —That the document the certifier saw was genuine
- —That the certifier has the expertise to judge authenticity
- —That the document has not been modified after certification
- —That the certifier's authority to certify remains current
Audrie authentication provides all of these assurances. The authenticator is identity-verified. Their authority is confirmed against a government or professional register. The cryptographic binding makes post-authentication modification immediately detectable. Unlike legacy certification, there is a perpetual auditable record of the authentication and authenticator. Authenticators can also have their status revoked if necessary with revocation retroactive across all documents they have ever authenticated.
The Audit Trail
Every verification check made through Audrie is recorded: the verifier's email address, the document checked, the timestamp, and the result. This audit trail is available to your compliance team and provides a complete record of document verification activity across your organisation.
How Verification Works
For your team
- 1.Navigate to the Audrie verification endpoint
- 2.Enter your email address and complete a CAPTCHA (no account required)
- 3.Upload the document received from your counterparty
- 4.Receive an instant result: match status, authenticator identity, authentication date, authenticator status, onboarding tier
- 5.Download the Verification Certificate as evidence of your check
API Integration (Coming Soon)
The Audrie Verification API is available now. Pro subscribers have access to a throttled API for workflow integration. Enterprise clients can add the full-throughput API (no rate limits) as an add-on for $899/month – covering document processing pipelines, compliance systems, and onboarding workflows. API responses include verification certificate data for programmatic audit trail integration.
