Problem solved

    AML compliance without the friction theatre.

    Your clients hate biometric verification. So do we. WhyAML verifies identity without cameras, downloads, or "turn your head slowly to the left."

    A client holding their phone to capture a passport-style selfie, passport beside them - the biometric friction WhyAML removes
    Why clients abandon verification

    Every friction point is a drop-off point.

    These three barriers are the top reasons clients quit biometric KYC flows before finishing.

    Friction 1

    App downloads

    "I have to download an app just to get verified?"
    A client holding a phone at arm's length to take a verification selfie
    Friction 2

    Selfie requirements

    "I'm not taking a photo of myself for this."

    Liveness checks

    Every friction point is a drop-off point. App downloads lose 30% of users. Selfie failures lose another 20%. By the time you're asking someone to "slowly turn their head," you've lost the deal.

    The solution

    Identity through behaviour, not biometrics.

    WhyAML

    We verify identity through what they control - not what they look like.

    Your client connects their existing Tier 2 regulated exchange account and makes a verification transfer. This proves they control a verified account - the exchange already checked their identity. No cameras. No apps. No "turn your head."

    See how the Witness Model works

    No app to download

    Web-based. Works in any browser on any device.

    Your clients don't need to install anything, sign into an app store, or accept a permissions dialog. The whole verification runs in the page they're already on.

    No selfie required

    No camera access needed. No photo storage.

    We don't ask for a front-facing photo, we don't access the camera, and we never store a biometric image. There's nothing for a future breach to expose.

    No liveness check

    No "turn left, blink twice" nonsense.

    No facial movement challenges, no head-tilt instructions, no retries because the light wasn't right. Clients don't walk away halfway through because something is being demanded of them that feels absurd.

    No document upload

    No passport photo. No driving licence scan.

    Clients don't have to dig out a document, photograph it in good light, crop it, retry because of glare. The identity verification comes from their Tier 2 regulated exchange account - which they've already proven.

    The real point

    Biometrics are an arms race you can't win.

    Selfies can be deepfaked. Liveness checks can be spoofed. Every biometric system is locked in an escalating battle with AI-generated fraud. WhyAML sidesteps the entire problem.

    WhyAML's Witness Model verifies behaviour, not appearance. Proving someone controls a verified financial account is harder to fake than a photo. The transfer creates cryptographic proof - not a JPEG that can be generated by AI.

    Ready when you are

    Stop losing clients to verification friction.

    No selfie. No app. No drop-offs. Just a browser and a verified Tier 2 regulated exchange account.
