OCR Studio Launches SDK v1.2 with AI-Powered Liveness Detection and Interactive Document Capture

OCR Studio a leader in optical character recognition and identity verification solutions, announced the launch of OCR Studio SDK v1.2, a significant update to its flagship software development kit. The new version introduces cutting-edge security features, expanded document support, and performance upgrades to address rising demand for fraud prevention and seamless authentication across industries.

The key feature of v1.2 is the new face liveness detection technology, which uses AI-driven analysis to verify whether a user is physically present during identity checks. By detecting spoofing attempts such as static photos, or pre-recorded videos, this feature adds a critical layer of security for digital onboarding, financial transactions, and secure access systems. Complementing this is the new instruction-based recognition technology, an interactive recognition process that guides users to actively capture documents and perform real-time face matching. This method ensures optimal angles, and positioning for both document, scans, and facial comparisons, significantly improving accuracy while reducing fraud risks.

OCR Studio SDK v1.2 expands its capabilities by supporting additional document types, including government-issued IDs, passports, and region-specific financial records. This enhancement allows developers to deploy the SDK in global markets with greater flexibility, ensuring compliance with diverse regulatory standards. Additional improvements include performance optimizations for faster processing of complex documents, stability upgrades to minimize integration challenges, and refined error handling for smoother cross-platform operation on mobile and web environments.  

OCR Studio SDK v1.2 is now available to all enterprise clients worldwide. Industries such as financial services, healthcare, government, and e-commerce will benefit from the SDK’s enhanced document recognition and authentication features. For example, financial institutions can streamline secure account openings, healthcare providers can automate patient verification, and e-commerce platforms can implement fraud-resistant age checks.
