ParaScript launches the first embedded signature verification for checks.
Patented technology embeds encrypted signatures on checks at issuance.
Enables instant signature verification at ATMs, tellers, and RDC.
Uses AI to compare signatures, flagging discrepancies for review.
Reduces reliance on external databases, enhancing fraud protection.
Available as an add-on for SignatureXpert.AI® software.
ParaScript’s new embedded signature verification solution transforms how financial institutions combat check fraud. Unlike traditional methods that rely on archived signature cards or external databases, this technology embeds a customer’s verified signature directly onto each check in a secure, hidden format during checkbook issuance. This approach ensures a reliable reference is always available for instant verification, streamlining processes and bolstering security.
The solution leverages advanced AI models within ParaScript’s SignatureXpert.AI® platform. When a check is presented—whether at ATMs, teller lines, kiosks, remote deposit capture (RDC), or high-speed processing systems verification software automatically extracts and decodes the embedded signature. The system then compares it to the handwritten signature on the check, analyzing the probability of a match. Any discrepancies are flagged for further review, enabling rapid fraud detection. The encrypted, invisible nature of the embedded signature ensures it cannot be copied or tampered with, offering robust protection against fraud.
By eliminating the need for external database lookups, ParaScript’s solution reduces processing delays and improves fraud detection accuracy. “Fraud schemes are becoming more complex, and financial institutions need tools that provide both security and efficiency,” said Emiliano Giacchetti, CEO of ParaScript. “Our embedded signature verification solution gives financial institutions a secure, real-time method to confirm signatures, protecting clients while enabling smoother, more confident check processing.” This innovation strengthens customer trust by ensuring secure and efficient check processing across all banking channels.
The embedded signature verification capability is available as an add-on module for SignatureXpert.AI®, ParaScript’s signature forgery detection software. Financial institutions can implement this solution immediately to enhance their fraud prevention strategies and protect against evolving threats in check processing.
ParaScript’s breakthrough technology sets a new standard for check security, offering financial institutions a powerful tool to combat fraud while improving operational efficiency. By integrating advanced AI and secure encryption, the company continues to lead in document processing innovation.
