Veryfi

Veryfi is a San Francisco-based software company founded in 2019 by Ernest Semerda and Janet Hernandez. The company builds document intelligence tools focused on extracting structured data from unstructured financial documents in real time, without relying on human review or template-based processing.

The company's core products include an OCR API for server-side document processing, a mobile SDK that enables document capture and data extraction within iOS and Android applications, and purpose-built toolkits for specific document types including receipts, invoices, purchase orders, bills, and checks. Veryfi targets developers, accounting software vendors, and enterprises seeking to automate accounts payable and expense management workflows.

Veryfi has operated without disclosed external venture funding and positions itself as a privacy-first alternative to larger document AI platforms, processing documents on-device or within isolated cloud environments. The company employs fewer than 50 people and distributes its products primarily through API subscriptions and SDK licensing.
