Many ICOs have to comply with KYC regulations, and end up rolling out custom solutions or integrating specific third party APIs and packages. This can be expensive, hard to customize, and time-consuming. We've seen this first hand working with ICO products at NoRestLabs and advising startups at MouseBelt so we created MouseKYC--an open-source solution to make it easier to hold an ICO. In most cases, the financial company interacting with a customer must know:
Who is the customer you are interacting with? Where are they from / What laws are they subject to? Are they a risk to interact with? What is MouseKYC?
To help validate identity and country of origin, we have created a registration application that can be hosted wherever users choose. It has 3 components:
mouse-kyc-fe -- This is the frontend of the package, handling user registration, document upload, field entry and submission. On repeat visits, it keeps the status of the KYC registration. It is implemented in react.
mouse-kyc-admin -- This is the admin panel of the package, handling approvals of registrations. Admins can approve, deny, and request more information from registrants to determine their identity and risk. It is implemented in react.
mouse-kyc-be -- This package handles the API and processing of packages. It is powered by Nodejs + MongoDB.
These products combine to provide a KYC flow for anyone to integrate into the dashboard. Users just need to:

With this flow complete, anyone with an ICO can launch a simple dashboard to handle KYC during registration and take steps to meet compliance laws.
