Security layer
Door ID scanning and venue watchlists
Know who is at the door — in seconds.
Door and security crews scan guest IDs on-device, match against bans and warnings, and share same-night alerts across partner venues — with structured cloud logs and ID photos that stay encrypted on the phone.

Capabilities
What ID delivers
Door scan & matching
Camera OCR on the phone — name, DOB, and document fields confirmed before a watchlist check.
- iPhone camera capture with on-device Vision OCR and MRZ support
- Confirm or edit fields before running the check
- CLEAR, WARNING, REVIEW, or DENY in seconds
- Manual search when a document cannot be scanned
Watchlist & bans
Shared bans and warnings that follow the organisation — not a sticky note at the door.
- Active bans and warnings with reason, severity, and scope
- Create records from a tonight’s scan without retyping identity
- Ops web console for unban, notes, and audit history
- Watch records persist until revoked — never purged with scan logs
Same-night network
Partner venues in a safety network see deny and eject signals while they still matter.
- Same-night alerts with venue source and expiry
- Configurable alert TTL for the night’s window
- Surface alerts on the door dashboard and Field ID tab
- Minimized PII based on network sharing settings
Privacy & retention
Structured scan data in the cloud; full ID photos encrypted on-device only.
- Cloud stores name, DOB, document hash, and result — never raw document numbers
- Encrypted local photo vault linked to the cloud scan id
- Club-friendly retention: keep scan logs forever when configured
- Server-side OCR upload disabled — images never leave the device by default

01
Decisions at the door
Scan a licence or passport, confirm the fields, and get a CLEAR / WARNING / REVIEW / DENY result before the guest clears the rope — the same matching rules as Ops NightGrid ID.
Active watchlist
Org-wide02
Watchlist that travels with the club
Bans and warnings are organisation-scoped. Door staff see active records on the phone; managers manage unban and notes from the ops console.
On-device vault
ID photos encrypted on the phone that scanned them.
Cloud scan logs
Name, DOB, hash, result — never raw document numbers.
Server OCR upload disabled by default
03
Photos stay on the device
Captured ID images are sealed in an on-device vault. Cloud APIs receive structured fields only — so scan history is searchable without uploading guest ID photos.
Part of the Event OS
Connected to the rest of the stack
ID shares the same event, data, and command layer as every other NightGrid division.
