Key takeaways
Introduction
Digital transactions move at the speed of a tap, yet many onboarding systems still wait minutes for a driving-license match. That lag drives customer drop-off, encourages manual workarounds, and leaves fraud gaps.
Bureau’s Driving License Suite replaces that bottleneck with an API stack that clears every check in seconds while expanding coverage to licenses that legacy vendors miss.
The Future of DL Verification
Bureau is redefining DL verification with a suite of APIs designed to meet diverse needs. Let’s dive into the components that make this stack a leader in the industry.
The DL Search API offers a phone-based solution that processes verifications in under 2 seconds with a 60% coverage rate. It requires only a phone number and returns detailed outputs like full name, date of birth, and driving license number, making it ideal for quick checks.
The DL Premium API introduces an industry-first approach, verifying identities using just the DL number without needing a date of birth. It achieves 10-15% higher coverage than competitors and delivers results in under 3 seconds, providing comprehensive data including blood group, place of birth, and license validity.
For image-based verification, the DL OCR API stands out with state-specific models that ensure 0.4% higher extraction accuracy and a 1.5% better success rate in real-world scenarios. It processes DL images to extract details like gender, nationality, and expiry date with ease.
