Identity facts

Does AgentProof use a selfie or ID check?

Yes, a live selfie, plus a confirmed email or LinkedIn. No government ID. To finish, AgentProof asks for a live selfie (camera; stored privately) and either a confirmed email (one-time code) or LinkedIn. There is no passport, driver's license, or other government ID upload, and no face-match against an ID document. The selfie never appears on the public verify page.

What you must complete to finish

Before results unlock, the product asks you to:

  • Add your selfie (live camera)
  • Confirm your email (one-time code) or connect LinkedIn

Finish-gate wording in the product: "Add your selfie and confirm your email first." Timing of the full assessment (about 15 minutes, including identity steps): How long does an AgentProof assessment take?.

What AgentProof does not do

  • Does not collect a passport, driver's license, or other government ID
  • Does not face-match your selfie against an ID document
  • Does not independently verify government ID

The live selfie plus email or LinkedIn ties the certificate to you. It is not a government identity check. Public copy on verify and certificate materials may say "Identity not independently verified."

What shows where

On your results (private to you): you may see "Selfie and email confirmed." or "Selfie and LinkedIn confirmed."

On the public verify page: anyone with the link can check the certificate. They never see your selfie, answers, or email. What shows: how verify works. Share how-to: How to share your AgentProof verify link.

On team reports: leads see totals only. Selfies and emails never appear on the private team report. Privacy: Can employers see my AgentProof answers?. Report definition: What is a private team AI report?.

Why a selfie at all

The selfie helps stop someone else from finishing under your name. Combined with confirmed email or LinkedIn, it supports a certificate you can share. It is still not an independent government ID verification. Credential overview: What is an AI skills certificate?. After you finish: What happens after you finish an AgentProof assessment.
