Multilingual KYC Proof-of-Address Verification Engine with Claude Agents SDK

Cross-border payment expansion across Africa and emerging markets requires verifying identity and proof-of-address documents issued in diverse formats, languages, and character scripts (e.g. Arabic, French, Swahili, Amharic). Standard static OCR templates fail on non-standard utility bills. In this challenge, you will implement a multilingual proof-of-address verification agent using the Claude Agents SDK. The agent will analyze unstructured visual document scans, perform translation and entity extraction, and verify address details against customer registration databases.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates address extraction accuracy and matching decisions across multilingual utility bill images.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

address_match_pass

Verifies match confidence is above 0.90 for valid documents

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

address_extraction_accuracy

Accuracy of extracted address string across global test samples • target: 95 • range: 0-100

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Initialize Claude Agents SDK with vision capabilities enabled

  • Parse unstructured multilingual utility bills (water, power, telecom)

  • Extract standardized street address, city, and date fields across French and Swahili inputs

  • Calculate fuzzy matching metrics against user-declared registration profiles
