What this API enables

The Deepvue Aadhaar OCR API enables organizations to:

Capture an Aadhaar in one call

Turn a single upload into structured JSON, so onboarding never stalls on manual identity entry.

Stay off the full Aadhaar number

Onboard the holder while only the masked digits ever reach your systems, shrinking what you store and audit.

Prefill onboarding forms

Drop the extracted name, DOB, and address straight into KYC forms instead of asking the user to retype them.

Accept whatever the user uploads

Handle a phone photo or a scanned PDF on the same endpoint, so no upload path is turned away.

Route only the cards that need a human

Auto-clear clean uploads and send just the unreadable ones to a review queue, keeping operations lean at volume.

How the API works

From document upload to structured Aadhaar data in four steps.

Upload document

Submit a user-provided Aadhaar image or PDF document through a secure API request.

Process and identify

The OCR workflow processes the uploaded document and identifies Aadhaar-related text regions.

Extract and normalize

Structured fields are extracted and normalized.

Return fields

A response is returned with Aadhaar document data ready for downstream use.

The response can be integrated into onboarding, document review, prefill, or internal operations workflows.

Document input and usage context

The Aadhaar OCR API is designed to work on user-provided Aadhaar images or PDF documents.

Consent and permissible usage

Aadhaar OCR workflows are intended to be used within lawful and permissible document-processing workflows.
