How It Works
1
Get your API key
Sign in to the Youverify Cowork dashboard and generate a secret API key from your workspace settings. You’ll get separate keys for sandbox and production.
2
Create an entity
Add any individual or business to the platform. Start with as little as an email address — Youverify creates a risk-scored record immediately and lets you enrich it over time.
3
Run verifications
Trigger KYC identity checks, KYB business lookups, AML screenings, or transaction risk evaluations against the entity using the same credentials.
4
Monitor and act
Receive webhook notifications as verification results and risk signals arrive. Escalate to cases, review with AI summaries, and make informed decisions.
Environments
Youverify provides two isolated environments:Always use your sandbox credentials for development and testing. Never use a sandbox key against the production endpoint or vice versa.
