Question 1

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 2

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 3

What does it cost? Is anything actually free?

Accepted Answer

**500 verifications free every month, forever**, on every account. No credit card. No sales call. No expiry.

Above the free tier, every module has a **public per-success price** on `didit.me/pricing` — `$0.33` per full KYC bundle, `$0.15` per Identity Document Verification, `$0.15` per Wallet Screening, `$0.20` per Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Screening, `$0.10` per liveness, `$0.05` per face match, `$0.03` per Internet Protocol (IP) analysis.

Pay-as-you-go, no minimums, no overage surprises. Volume discounts kick in automatically as you grow.

Question 4

Which Tanzanian regulator covers identity verification on a digital onboarding?

Accepted Answer

Four sit on top of every Tanzanian identity-verification flow:

- **Bank of Tanzania (BoT)** — sets remote-onboarding requirements for banks, payment service providers, and electronic-money issuers under the National Payment Systems Act and BoT KYC and CDD directives.
- **Capital Markets and Securities Authority (CMSA)** — capital-markets supervisor for licensed brokers, fund managers, and investment advisors.
- **Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU Tanzania)** — Tanzania's Financial Intelligence Unit. Administers the **Anti-Money Laundering Act 2006** and receives Suspicious Transaction Reports.
- **Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC)** — enforces the **Personal Data Protection Act 11/2022**. Governs how the verification data is captured, stored, and disclosed.

Didit ships the hosted flow + the audit log + the 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 Tanzanian identities against NIDA?

Accepted Answer

**Not as a Database Validation service today.** The NIDA National ID is read end-to-end on the hosted flow (full OCR of the 20-digit National Identification Number, name, date of birth, place of issue, expiry, and template authenticity check), and the AML stage screens the user against every named Tanzanian regulatory watchlist.

For higher-assurance Tanzanian flows, pair the ID + Biometric + AML stages with **Ongoing AML Monitoring** ($0.07 per user / year) and the visual workflow builder so the full session — including every signal and the tamper-evident audit log — lands in one JSON report.

A new Database Validation provider ships every month; the NIDA surface is on the upcoming list.

Question 6

Which Tanzanian watchlists does the AML stage screen against?

Accepted Answer

Every named Tanzanian regulatory body on top of the global pool of 1,300+ sanctions, Politically Exposed Persons (PEP), and adverse-media sources:

- **National Assembly of Tanzania** (PEP Level 1).
- **Bank of Tanzania** — Warnings.

The full list is documented at `docs.didit.me/core-technology/aml-screening/watchlist-database-aml-screening`. Turn on ongoing monitoring ($0.07 per user / year) for the periodic-review obligation FIU expects.

Question 7

How long does it take to integrate Didit in Tanzania?

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 + Active Liveness + Face Match + AML — 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 Tanzania stack at zero cost before flipping production traffic.

Question 8

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

Accepted Answer

**Swahili and English — auto-detected from the user's browser / device locale.** The hosted UI ships in 48+ languages; Tanzanian users land on the Swahili flow when their device locale signals it, and on English otherwise.

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 Tanzania 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`.

The **full KYC bundle** (Identity + Passive Liveness + Face Match + IP Analysis) is **`$0.33`** — same anchor price worldwide, no Tanzania surcharge. **500 verifications free every month**, no credit card. Volume discounts auto-apply above the free tier; Enterprise adds a custom Master Services Agreement (MSA) and data-residency choice.
