About VerifyDocs

Our mission

Every day people are asked to trust documents they cannot easily check — an offer letter, a certificate, a scanned ID, an invoice. Most are genuine, but verifying them usually means specialist knowledge or slow manual review. VerifyDocs exists to make that first pass fast, accessible and free, so anyone can spot obvious problems and know when to look closer.

We combine several practical checks in one place: reading text from scans with OCR, validating the format of common identifiers, inspecting images for signs of editing, and scoring certificates on multiple signals. Individually each is useful; together they give you a well-rounded, preliminary sense of whether a document deserves more scrutiny.

The team

VerifyDocs is built and maintained by a small, independent team of engineers and writers with backgrounds in web security, document processing and product design. We work in the open where we can, publish practical guides on our blog, and iterate based on the feedback we receive from people who use the tools every day.

How we stay free

The core tools are free to use. To keep them that way, we display advertising in clearly marked areas of the site. Ads are placed away from buttons and interactive controls, and we never obscure a result behind an advertisement. You are always in control of optional cookies through our consent banner, and you can read exactly what we collect in our Privacy Policy.
