Is this new? (to the USA?)

Because I've used similar services inside apps dozens of times. Sometimes to verify a drivers license to ride a car, sometimes to verify my ID to register a bank account.

Every time is was done in a few seconds so I assumed the companies used an API rather than every car-share building it themselves.

there are existing startups that specialize in ID verification. E.g. in my current freelancing gig, my client uses Passbase.
