AutoVerifAI

AI / Intelligent Systems

Project Overview

AutoVerifAI is an intelligent system designed to eliminate fraud and "asset traps" in the Kenyan car and heavy machinery financing market. It acts as a cognitive protective layer between borrowers, lenders, and brokers — combining machine learning with real-world financial guardrails to ensure every transaction is grounded in verified logic rather than handshake promises. The project was inspired by high-profile cases like Raphael Tuju's asset dispute and everyday citizens losing millions in lorry-financing schemes — systemic problems that demand a systemic solution.

The Challenge

Kenya's asset financing market is plagued by document forgery, inflated valuations, and predatory lending. Brokers and unscrupulous dealers exploit information asymmetry to trap borrowers in unfavourable deals. Lenders have no reliable way to verify whether an asset's stated value, condition, or ownership history is legitimate — leading to devastating financial losses on both sides.

The Solution

AutoVerifAI addresses this through a multi-layered verification pipeline: • ML-powered risk scoring using XGBoost trained on historical asset and transaction data • Document forgery detection via image analysis and metadata validation • Asset valuation cross-referencing against market benchmarks • Borrower and lender protection flags with explainable AI outputs • FastAPI backend exposing a clean REST API for integration • React dashboard for lenders and brokers to review verification results • PostgreSQL database for audit trails and transaction history • Dockerised deployment for portability across environments

Results & Impact

  • Identifies high-risk transactions with ML-powered scoring
  • Flags suspected document forgery before funds are disbursed
  • Provides explainable risk verdicts lenders can act on
  • Targets a market segment responsible for billions in annual losses
  • Built to scale across East Africa's asset financing ecosystem
