Key Facts

  • The module estimates age from a live selfie within a stated three-year margin.
  • Configurable buffer zones let operators set where estimation alone is sufficient.
  • Borderline results automatically escalate to a document check.

Card Text

Unbundling reflects age assurance becoming a distinct compliance purchase rather than a feature of onboarding. The buffer-zone pattern, where estimation handles the clear cases and documents resolve the margin, is emerging as the standard way to reconcile accuracy limits with regulatory thresholds.
