Verification that meets title insurer standards
Major title insurers require secured identity verification for virtual closings. Athenty gives real estate lawyers and agents a verification workflow that satisfies that requirement — in under 2 minutes.
The problem
Real estate verification is broken
Manual processes don't meet title insurer standards. Slow verification delays closings. Remote transactions demand a better solution.
Title insurers require secured IDV
Major title insurers across North America now mandate verified identity for virtual client meetings. Legacy manual processes no longer meet the standard.
Remote closings are the new normal
More than half of real estate transactions now involve virtual client meetings. Your verification process needs to work outside the boardroom.
Manual verification takes too long
Traditional identity verification averages 15–30 minutes per party. Athenty completes the same process in under 2 minutes — without compromising accuracy.
Fraud risk at every closing
Wire fraud, title fraud, and identity theft target real estate transactions. Biometric matching and AI fraud detection catch what manual review misses.
