How to Cut Driver Screening Time by 40x — Logistics Company Sholq

In logistics, time is money. Every delay when hiring a driver can mean a missed shipment, idle equipment and lost cargo. At the same time, the market faces systemic challenges: forged driver credentials, multi-step manual checks, difficulty confirming identity remotely, and high fraud rates during hiring.

For Sholq, a logistics platform handling thousands of shipments every month, these problems meant lost efficiency, rising costs and declining client trust.

Together with Sholq, we implemented a digital KYC process fully embedded in their system:

• Cut driver verification from 40 minutes to 1 minute — and reduced headcount by more than 65%.
• Eliminated fake identities with biometric checks and automated document matching.
• Moved hiring online — contracts can now be signed remotely, with no office visit.
• Secured shipments through a single database of verified drivers.

The result is a fast, transparent and secure digital hiring process that keeps shipments on schedule and minimizes risk.
