Question 1

What is Didit?

Accepted Answer

Didit is **infrastructure for identity and fraud** — the platform we wished existed when we were building products ourselves: **open, flexible, and developer-friendly**, so it works as a real part of your stack instead of a black box you integrate around.

One API covers verifying people (**KYC**, *know your customer*), verifying businesses (**KYB**, *know your business*), screening crypto wallets (**KYT**, *know your transaction*), and monitoring transactions in real time — on a stack built to be:

- **Fast** — sub-2-second p99 on every session
- **Reliable** — in production with **1,500+ companies** across **220+ countries**
- **Secure** — SOC 2 Type 1, ISO 27001, GDPR-native, and formally attested by Spain's financial regulator as safer than verifying someone in person

The footprint underneath: **14,000+ document types** in **48+ languages**, **1,000+ data sources**, and **200+ fraud signals** on every session. The Didit infrastructure dynamically learns from every session and gets better every day.

Question 2

What does Didit ship?

Accepted Answer

Didit is the infrastructure layer for **identity and fraud**. One Application Programming Interface (API), 25+ composable modules across four product lines:

- **User Verification (KYC — know your customer)** — Identity Document Verification, liveness, face match, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening, Internet Protocol (IP) analysis. **$0.33** per full bundle.
- **Business Verification (KYB — know your business)** — registry, Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO), officers, entity AML, plus a linked KYC session per UBO.
- **Transaction Monitoring** — real-time rule engine, case management, Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) workflow.
- **Wallet Screening (KYT — know your transaction)** — on-chain wallet risk at **$0.15 per check**, or bring your own screening provider and run it inside Didit.

Compose any module into a workflow with the visual no-code builder, ship in **5 minutes**, **500 verifications free every month**, forever.

Question 3

How is Didit different from a single-product Know Your Customer (KYC) vendor?

Accepted Answer

**Most identity vendors sell one slice** — a KYC check, an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) list, a wallet screen. Didit ships the infrastructure underneath all of them, and the gap shows up on six axes:

- **Pricing.** Public price on every module — **$0.33** for a full KYC, **500 verifications free every month**, no minimums, no contracts. Single-product vendors hide six-figure minimums behind a sales call.
- **Access.** Sandbox in one click, self-serve from day one, production keys on signup. Single-product vendors gate the sandbox behind a contract — months to evaluate.
- **Developer experience.** Public docs, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Claude Code and Cursor, and native Software Development Kits (SDKs) for Web, iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter. **Integrate in 5 minutes** with an AI agent or in a working afternoon by hand.
- **User experience.** Highest pass rates in the market, **sub-2-second** end-to-end inference, country-specialised capture flows, **48+ languages** out of the box.
- **Flexibility.** One `/v3/` Application Programming Interface (API) composes 25+ modules across KYC, Know Your Business (KYB), Transaction Monitoring, and Wallet Screening (KYT — know your transaction). A KYB session spawns a linked KYC for every Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO); a flagged transaction spawns a step-up KYC remediation — same session, same webhook contract, same audit trail. Single-product vendors sell one shape of KYC and stop there.
- **AI-era fraud.** **200+ real-time fraud signals** scored on every session — deepfake, injection, synthetic-ID, document forgery, face-morph, device intelligence, replay. Single-product vendors treat deepfake and injection detection as roadmap items, not defaults.

Common in fintech and crypto — the same architecture fits marketplaces, iGaming, mobility, and any vertical where you need to know who someone is and what they are doing.

Question 4

Which regulators govern identity verification for digital onboarding in Guatemala?

Accepted Answer

Four authorities sit on top of every Guatemalan identity-verification flow:

- **Superintendencia de Bancos (SIB)** — sets KYC and AML onboarding requirements for banks, financieras, and cooperativas under **Decreto 67-2001 (Ley contra el Lavado de Dinero u Otros Activos)**.
- **Intendencia de Verificación Especial (IVE)** — the SIB's AML enforcement arm. Receives Reportes de Transacciones Sospechosas and oversees sujetos obligados compliance.
- **Banco de Guatemala (Banguat)** — central bank. Oversees the payment system and licensing of electronic-payment operators.
- **Registro Nacional de las Personas (RENAP)** — civil-registry authority that issues the DPI and underpins the `gtm_dpi` database validation.

Didit ships the hosted flow + audit log + watchlist coverage to satisfy all four at the same time — same `POST /v3/session/` workflow, same JSON report, same SOC 2 Type 1 + ISO/IEC 27001 evidence pack.

Question 5

Does Didit cross-check Guatemalan identities against the RENAP registry?

Accepted Answer

**Yes — via the `gtm_dpi` Database Validation service** (`POST /v3/database-validation/`):

- **`gtm_dpi`** — hits the **Registro Nacional de las Personas (RENAP)** directly. `$0.20 per successful query`, no end-user consent required. Input: `document_number` (exactly 13 digits, no hyphens). Returns `identification_number`, `first_name`, `last_name`, `full_name`.

Question 6

Is Didit ready for SIB-supervised KYC under Decreto 67-2001?

Accepted Answer

**Yes.** **Decreto 67-2001 (Ley contra el Lavado de Dinero u Otros Activos)** and its reglamento under **Acuerdo Gubernativo 118-2002** require every SIB-supervised entity — bank, financiera, cooperativa de ahorro — to verify customer identity against the civil registry and screen for AML risk before onboarding.

Didit covers the full stack on one workflow:

- **Identity Document Verification** + **Passive Liveness** + **Face Match 1:1** for the tier-1 onboarding check.
- **`gtm_dpi`** Database Validation against RENAP — the authoritative source SIB expects.
- **AML Screening** ($0.20 per check) against the global pool plus Guatemalan regulatory watchlists (SIB sanctions, IVE enforcement lists, MINFIN exclusions, Guatemala Presidency PEP registers).
- **Ongoing AML monitoring** ($0.07 per user / year) for the Decreto 67-2001 periodic-review obligation.

Question 7

How long does it take to integrate Didit for Guatemala?

Accepted Answer

**5 minutes to a working sandbox, a weekend to a production flow.**

- Sign up at `business.didit.me`, grab an API key, call `POST /v3/session/` with a `workflow_id` that wires ID Verification + Passive Liveness + Face Match + AML + RENAP database — done.
- AI-agent path: paste the integration prompt at `docs.didit.me/integration/integration-prompt` into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Devin, Aider, or Replit Agent. The agent provisions the application, builds the workflow, wires the webhook, and runs a smoke test.
- Five SDKs share the same session model: Web, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter.

The **first 500 verifications every month are free, forever** — pilot the full Guatemala stack at zero cost before flipping production traffic.

Question 8

Which language does the hosted verification flow use for Guatemalan users?

Accepted Answer

**Guatemalan Spanish — auto-detected from the user's browser or device locale.** The hosted UI ships in 48+ languages; Guatemalan users land on the Spanish flow by default. English is also live on the same flow for cross-border, expat, or US-diaspora users.

The document-recognition layer is decoupled from the UI layer — capture works in any language, and the admin console can be set independently to whichever language your compliance team prefers.

Question 9

What does the Guatemala verification cost end-to-end?

Accepted Answer

Per-module public pricing — pay only for what runs on the session:

- **ID Verification** — `$0.15` per document check.
- **Passive Liveness** — `$0.10`. Active Liveness — `$0.15`.
- **Face Match 1:1** — `$0.05`. Face Search 1:N — **free**.
- **AML Screening** — `$0.20` per check. Ongoing AML — `$0.07 per user / year`.
- **`gtm_dpi`** (RENAP civil registry) — `$0.20` per successful query.

The **full KYC bundle** (Identity + Passive Liveness + Face Match + IP Analysis) is **`$0.33`** — same anchor price worldwide. **500 verifications free every month**, no credit card. Volume discounts auto-apply above the free tier.
