ADVANCE.AI

ADVANCE.AI is the digital identity verification, KYC/KYB, AML, compliance and risk-management business unit of Advance Intelligence Group, headquartered in Singapore and founded in 2016. Its AdvanGuard product line covers identity verification, document verification, face authentication and Know Your Business checks for banking and financial services, fintech, crypto, payments, e-commerce and the sharing economy, with a strong footprint across Southeast Asia and other emerging markets. ADVANCE.AI publishes a public Open API at api.advance.ai documented at doc.advance.ai — token authentication, Global Document Verification with OCR field extraction and ID forgery detection, face comparison, and liveness detection with video evidence and PII data retention — plus first-party Android and iOS capture SDKs distributed from its own Maven and object-storage endpoints. Onboarding is sales-led: there is no self-service sign-up and no published pricing, and platform access keys are issued through the Websaas platform.

ADVANCE.AI publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Open API. Tagged areas include Company, Identity Verification, KYC, KYB, and AML.

ADVANCE.AI’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, support, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, and 24 more developer resources.

scored 2026-09-07 · rubric v0.20.0
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/advanceai: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
