What a great way to open your company up to a huge liability. When (and not if) this place gets hacked, expect to foot the bill for identity protection service for a few years for anyone you have scanned using this thing. The burden is usually on the person who originally handles the identity documents, even if a service they are using has been compromised. There's a reason why many nightclubs no longer scan ID's.
Also I don't see any data or information about any guarantees, no case studies, etc. A service like this is worthless unless they are willing to provide something for when fraud does occur, or provide a guarantee that the service actually works and the results can be trusted.
Reading through their terms of service, there is no warranty what so ever. Their technology could be completely bogus, or do nothing for all you know. It's a black box.
You're basically opening yourself up to liability for questionable benefit.

They say they used machine learning, so the reality is that usually means they don't even know what their technology does either. I'm sure they can tell you that statistically, it will probably not validate an image of a cat as an ID.
