TalkingID
the Multilevel Forensic Voice Verification
supported by Deep Learning Artifical Intelligence
Tired of remembering passwords, SMS codes or answering long and boring questions every time you make an identity verification?


You have found the solution!
Core Purpose

and

Focus
In times of increasing digitization unique assignment through biometric authentication is becoming more and more valuable.

The authentication method TalkingID we provide is the most reliable way to ensure maximum identification security for our customers across a wide range of industries. (Bernd Drösel, 2021)
The obvious best Solution
SmartBiometrics' TalkingID technology uniquely identifies the speaker based on his or her voiceprint and in business fields that require secure identification of the person, the focus is not on the spoken word or sentence, but on the secure identification of the person speaking!

TalkingID is considered the strongest authentication method because it links identity to an actual person
("what you are" instead of "what you know" or "what you have").

Extended Market Validation


The human voice is the most reliable and easy-to-use biometric marker.

German based company SmartBiometrics offers speaker verification TalkingID for every area of business and private life.

But TalkingID can also prevent Fraud with AI-generated votes. Please see also: Fraud with AI-generated votes on the rise
SmartBiometrics offers speaker verification TalkingID in the field of:

  • Online Payment/Online Banking with two-factor authentication (PSD 2 requirement)

  • Call Center / help desk support to avoid false identification
  • Login/Password Replacement in every business area like business software, information portals, computer logins, etc.

Additional Potential in Smart home access control instead of RSA tokens or plastic cards/badges, the voice as email signature, a Driver/User identification in the Automotive Industry, for quick and task-specific identification in the IoT-World.


SmartBiometrics offers speaker verification TalkingID also in the field of:

  • Recognition of synthetic voices: TalkingID can recognize deepfakes created with AI-based voice synthesis tools.
  • Identity theft protection: By identifying synthetic voices, TalkingID can protect organizations and individuals from identity theft.
  • Improve the security of biometric systems: TalkingID can enhance the security of biometric systems that use voice recognition.


Advantages


Unlike iris scanning or fingerprinting, identification by voice can also be done remotely, e.g. for verification by phone. This means that instead of searching for customer numbers, passwords or PINs, customers can quickly and easily authenticate themselves with their voice.

This would help the 70 percent of customers who currently find the authentication process frustrating.

  • Improving the customer experience with fast and frictionless authentication.
  • Improving security and minimize security breaches due to compromised passwords, phishing, etc.
  • Personalizing the interaction by instant identification of the user directly.
  • Extracting a variety of audio features that ensure that a speaker is a real person and not a recording or a synthetic voice.

Benefits
Biometric part of multi-factor authentication

Here, the voice represents who you are, and the spoken phrase is the factor for inherence.

This combination is considered the most secure of all even if someone recreates your voice the voice of the speaker cannot be completely imitated. If intonation, rhythm and accent are perfectly recreated, there are still enough physical features to be found that make each person individual.

In addition, TalkingID can be combined with other methods, such as behavioral biometrics, facial recognition and fingerprint scanning.
Under unusual circumstances

Everyone carries their voice with them as the key to their customer account, and its individual characteristics make it almost impossible to "overcome". Even fluctuations in the voice - such as a cold - do not usually lead to rejection by a voice biometric system. Finally, with more than 2000 features tested, there are certainly enough "applicable" test features.

This explains why TalkingID recognizes a user with a cold just as well as under normal conditions.
Better than a fingerprint

A voiceprint contains more than 2000 unique characteristics of a person. These are determined by physical factors such as the length of the vocal tract or the nasal passage. It gets its characteristics from behavioral features such as pitch, rhythm or the speaker's accent. Authentication is thus simple and secure: Using certain characteristics, the system identifies the voice within seconds - and in our circumstance even independently of the content of what is said.

Even identical twins who sounds identical to the listener each have their own voice identity. This is reliably recognized by TalkingID.
Worthless for cybercriminals

Once a hacker has cracked insecure PINs and passwords, practically all doors are open to him. TalkingID is quite different: If cybercriminals get hold of the individual voiceprint they still have no value for them. The stored data only represents a mathematical model of the speaker's characteristics. It is not possible to reconstruct the original voice from it. The physical characteristics of a voice are absolutely inimitable - even if, for example, the speech rhythm, intonation or accent can be imitated. TalkingID can even distinguish voice recordings from live voices.
Reduce costs
There is no need for time-consuming queries and cost-intensive hardware regarding identity verification.
TalkingID authentication saves you money by shortening company-customer processes and investments for iris scanner and face recognition.

ROI can be observed after the first year of deployment.
Better conversion

Authentication with a biometric identifier may be barely noticeable, but it is faster and easier than entering a PIN or password.

This benefits both consumers and businesses, as the path to conversion becomes much easier with the introduction of biometric payment authentication.
Multiple use cases

Integrate our software into any communication channel and allow your customers to authenticate themselves naturally without passwords.
Connect our API to your shop system, industry software, call center, website, mobile applications and start developing your business.
Our technology is applicable in payment and banking, ecommerce and military use.
Combat fraud

TalkingID proactively helps combat fraud. If a fraudster tries to use his own voice to gain access to sensitive data via a voice dialog system, call center or app, he leaves his individual voiceprint. Companies can use this to proactively keep the attacker away from their systems. At the same time the voiceprint is secure evidence to report the attempted fraud to the police.
Pay everywhere

As more retail stores move to a contactless payment model, the increasing number of consumers choosing to pay with Apple and Google Pay on their mobile devices, using voice authentication, means the customer can pay anywhere and anytime.
Future proof

Early proponents of biometric authentication in payments are feeling much more comfortable as new forms of biometric authentication are introduced and other authentication methods are slowly phased out.
