Introduction

The internet is flooded with synthetic content and identities. Very AI is restoring trust by building the first-ever Proof of Reality. Powered by two key technologies, Proof of Personhood and Proof of Authenticity, Very AI verifies both the person and the reality behind every online interaction.

Through advanced palm recognition and liveness detection, Very AI authenticates real users with unmatched precision. Its AI and deepfake detection technology protects against synthetic impersonation, and manipulated digital content. Together, these systems form a defense layer that restores trust online, protecting people, platforms, and markets.

Backed by over a decade of biometric research, more than 28 million scans, and continuous AI innovation, Very AI is privacy-first, frictionless, and designed for global scale. It powers Proof of Personhood and next-generation replacements for OTPs, CAPTCHAs, and identity checks, ensuring that authenticity remains the foundation of the internet.

Market Problems

All authentication methods available today face privacy, security, and usability challenges. AI-generated bots, deepfakes, and automated fraud are increasing, yet existing solutions fail to address these threats. Traditional bot prevention methods such as OTPs and CAPTCHAs become ineffective against bots with human level intelligence. Biometrics based proof of personhood can be effective. However conventional biometrics have certain limitations. Facial recognition, while convenient, raises surveillance concerns and is susceptible to deepfake spoofing. Fingerprint and iris scanning require specialized hardware, limiting accessibility and scalability.

Generative AI has made it simple to create highly realistic fake faces, voices, and even live video streams. Deepfakes are eroding trust in human presence online, enabling social engineering, identity theft, and financial scams at scale. The world now lacks a reliable way to verify who and what is real.

Solution

Very AI solves these problems by combining contactless palmprint recognition, liveness detection, plus AI-powered deepfake detection, eliminating the need for additional hardware while ensuring the highest levels of security and authenticity.

The system does not just verify identity, it verifies reality. By integrating AI models trained on multimodal data such as video, voice, and imagery, Very AI can distinguish between authentic made-by- human digital content and synthetic, AI-generated ones.

The product offering will be further strengthened with on-chain verification, making it applicable for wallet protection, Sybil and bot attack prevention, and fraud mitigation. Very AI provides a decentralized identity and authenticity framework that verifies users without compromising privacy.

What is Very AI?

Very AI’s breakthrough palm print recognition and liveness detection technology runs on any device with a camera, simultaneously delivering security, privacy and scalability. The system is SOC 2 certified for privacy and data protection, and iBeta certified for accuracy. The patented technology functions reliably across different types of devices, browsers, skin tones, and lighting conditions, making Very AI highly adaptable.

In addition to biometrics, Very AI’s deepfake detection uses proprietary models trained to detect deepfake artifacts, facial morphing, and voice synthesis patterns in real time. This ensures that every verification, whether through palm scan, face capture, or video input, is cross-checked for synthetic manipulation.

Why Very AI?

Palmprint recognition offers significant advantages over other biometric methods. Very AI is ten times more accurate than facial recognition, including Apple Face ID. Palm prints remain unchanged throughout a person’s lifetime and are highly distinct, even among identical twins. Unlike facial recognition, which can be compromised using publicly available images or deepfake overlays, Very AI’s multimodal detection layer ensures that synthetic or altered inputs are instantly flagged.

With over a decade of experience in machine learning and computer vision, Very AI has developed the world’s largest annotated palm database and now extends that expertise into deepfake and generative AI detection. The models are continuously retrained to ensure long-term resilience as synthetic content generation advances.

How Does It Work?

On a Very AI powered platform, when a user registers for the first time or performs a sensitive transaction later on, the platform prompts the user to scan their palm using the camera on their personal device. Very AI processes the video stream to:

1. Liveness Verification: by extracting gesture, depth, and photometric cues to confirm that the interaction is performed by a real human.

2. Identity Authentication:: by extracting and matching palmprint features to verify the user’s uniqueness and confirm their identity.

When users encounter digital content of uncertain authenticity, such as an image, video, or audio clip, they can upload it through the Very AI web portal or browser plugin. Very AI analyzes the content and provides an authenticity score, indicating the likelihood that it was generated by AI.

In the future, the Very AI SDK will also be embeddable in video conferencing and communication platforms, enabling real-time authenticity checks for both participants and shared content.

Very AI vs. Others

Very AI outperforms traditional biometric methods in accuracy, security, scalability, and privacy. Fingerprint recognition, while widely used, has limitations due to wear, duplication risks, and hardware dependencies. Facial recognition is vulnerable to spoofing, affected by environmental factors, and linked to surveillance concerns. Iris scanning, though accurate, requires costly specialized cameras, making it difficult to scale. DNA-based authentication, while secure, is impractical due to processing costs and privacy risks.

Unlike any competitor, Very AI now unites biometric verification and AI authenticity detection under one framework. It not only proves who you are, it proves you are real.

Use Cases

Very AI provides a unified biometric and authenticity solution that enhances security and simplifies verification across digital ecosystems.

Web3: Very AI fortifies token airdrops, DAO governance, and in-wallet transactions by ensuring that each participant is a unique, verified person, preventing Sybil attacks and bot-driven exploitation. Centralized exchanges, onramps, payment providers, and stablecoin issuers can use Very AI for frictionless, compliant onboarding, drastically reducing fraud risks while maintaining privacy-first user experiences. SDK integrations with wallets like MetaMask or Phantom transform Proof of Personhood into a seamless, instant verification experience for millions of users, offering scalability without centralization.

Web 2: Very AI addresses fraud-heavy sectors such as fintech, e-commerce, gig economy, and social media platforms. For payments and fintech companies such as Stripe and PayPal, Very AI provides biometric verification at critical transaction points, enabling instant high-risk transaction approvals without cumbersome OTPs or 2FA apps. E-commerce leaders like Amazon and Shopify can deploy Very AI to verify sellers and buyers, dramatically reducing account takeovers and fraudulent listings. Platforms like Uber, Airbnb, and Fiverr can integrate Very AI to verify gig workers and hosts during onboarding, adding trust and safety to peer-to-peer marketplaces.

Across all these sectors, Very AI’s deepfake and AI detection capabilities extend protection beyond login or onboarding. Enterprises can use it to verify live video sessions, user-submitted photos, or identity recordings, instantly detecting if an input is synthetic or AI-generated. This prevents impersonation, deepfake-based scams, and bot-driven fraud in customer support, onboarding, and remote verification workflows. By authenticating both the person and the content, Very AI creates a new standard for digital trust in the age of synthetic media.

As the internet fills with machine-generated identities, content, and interactions, the line between real and artificial is blurring fast. Very AI stands as the authenticity layer for the digital world, protecting people, platforms, and markets from the erosion of truth. By anchoring verification in what cannot be faked, the human signal itself, Very AI ensures that every interaction, transaction, and identity online can once again be trusted.
