Equal's Identity Gateway is a digital onboarding platform and verification engine designed to automate the collection, parsing, and validation of candidate identity documents in real-time. It functions as a centralized gateway for capturing background information without requiring user logins or application installations, utilizing a mobile-first interface. The system supports automated format checks, government API cross-referencing, and comprehensive audit trail generation.
The platform enables deferred verification execution, allowing organizations to collect data pre-offer and run background checks on final candidates. It provides multiple deployment configurations, including zero-code hosted pages, native HR portal embedding, and REST API connectivity with webhook notifications for real-time status updates.
