Amani was founded by Hamid Khan, a former Deloitte Partner in 2018 and was the first Regulation Technology Innovation and Technology License holder in the Dubai International Financial Centre (“DIFC”).

In 2018 we were finalists in the 2018 DIFC Fintech Hive & Accenture accelerator program and worked closely with six financial institutions in the United Arab Emirates in order to develop and perfect our platform. We also completed multiple successful pilots for some of the largest banks in our region.

Our vision is to create a flexible and fully modular identity verification platform specifically for the Middle East, Turkey and African markets. We aim to fundamentally transform the on-boarding processes, reduce fraud, eliminate non-compliance, materially reduce costs and improve the customer experience.

We understand that regulation is geo-specific and continually evolving. We believe specialized geo-specific solutions are more powerful than generic identity platforms.

Our mission is to extensively map all relevant documents for our target markets and not simply rely on MRZ extractions. We use the latest machine learning and artificial intelligence protocols and employ escalating risk based models coupled with proprietary algorithms.
