01
The failure surface
Small print, perspective changes and cropped boundaries can damage the text entering identity workflows. Recognition robustness is one layer of reliability, separate from authenticity and identity checks.
02
What to measure
Evaluate capture and acquisition conditions against a fixed document-reading model. Define field-level truth and normalization for identifiers and dates where the scope requires extraction.
03
A scoped evaluation
Start with agreed document types, permitted data sources and a frozen holdout. Custom identity-document layouts and schemas require their own dataset scope and review.
04
What the evidence supports
StressBench does not claim identity verification, anti-spoofing, fraud detection or regulatory certification. The current public evidence covers document OCR, not KYC decision accuracy.
