A passion for photography, especially anthropomorphic
photography that depicts a person, led Helena Murka and
Rado Stropnik to a new business idea.
Passion for photography, especially anthropomorphic photography that portrays humans, led Helena Murko and Rado Stropnik to a new busi-
ness idea. Through years of practice, they realized that people rarely like their photos for personal documents. That’s why they wanted to cre-
ate a solution that would help people be as satisfied as possible with their photos on personal documents.
While considering how people could have access to a greater number of
photos to choose from for their personal documents, Rado came to the realization that anyone could actually take a photo for a biometric ID document - anywhere and anytime. When he presented his idea to Helena, they were soon starting a new venture together.
They gathered a development team and created the Photko application,
which guides the user to take a likeable and high-quality photo for their bio-metric ID document. They soon discovered that their technology could be used for other purposes as well. The biggest potential was in the remote
biometric identification process for various services that require a high level
of trust and are currently done through personal identification at the service provider’s location.
This is the so-called KYC (know your customer) process, which Slovenian
users already know from various services such as opening a bank account
in foreign countries, trading accounts on exchanges, or electronic wallets for cryptocurrencies. Thus, the Verified by Photko service was created, which enables personal identification and recognition remotely, based on a biometric photo and biometric ID document.

Po končanem fotografiranju, oseba izvede plačilo in prejme na elektronski naslov PDF potrdilo, ki vsebuje unikatno referenčno številko. To potrdilo, vsebuje vse biometrične podatke fotografirane osebe in unikatno referenčno številko, kar je pogoj za izdelavo osebnega dokumenta.
Z unikatno referenčno številko, si administrator na Upravni enoti sname fotografijo iz »centralnega odložišča fotografij«. To pomeni, da ni potrebno skeniranje in preverjanje kvalitete natisnjene fotografije, saj je to že opravljeno.
