Pretrained text classifier

Identify identification number with one API call.

A pretrained identification number classifier that sorts text into one of 10 categories — what identification number it belongs to. Use the identification number API immediately, no training required, then adapt it to your own data when you need more.

Call the identification number API

Once you've added this classifier to your console, you get your own copy of it behind your own endpoint. Invoke it with any HTTP client:

curl

curl -X POST "https://www.nyckel.com/v1/functions/YOUR_FUNCTION_ID/invoke" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NYCKEL_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"data": "The text you want to classify"}'

Python

import requests

# Get an access token: https://www.nyckel.com/docs/api/overview/authentication/
token = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

response = requests.post(
    "https://www.nyckel.com/v1/functions/YOUR_FUNCTION_ID/invoke",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + token},
    json={"data": "The text you want to classify"},
)
print(response.json())

Example response

{
  "labelName": "Alphanumeric Format",
  "labelId": "label_...",
  "confidence": 0.92
}

Under the hood

Model type
Nyckel-trained

Trained on a Nyckel-curated dataset covering 10 identification number categories, served on Nyckel's own infrastructure — your text snippet stays on Nyckel.

Input
Text

Send raw text to the invoke endpoint; the response is a label with a confidence score.

Make it yours
Adaptable

Clone it, then correct predictions and add your own samples in the console — Nyckel retrains automatically, turning this into a custom model tuned to your data.

More than a demo: this page is one of thousands of pretrained functions on Nyckel, an ML classification platform. You can invoke classifiers by API, review predictions, correct labels, collect samples from production traffic, and promote any pretrained function to a private custom model — without changing your integration.

Where teams use identification number classification

Document Verification

This function can be employed to automatically identify and validate identification numbers within legal documents, ensuring that the documents meet required compliance standards. By efficiently flagging any discrepancies, organizations can streamline their verification process and minimize the risk of fraud.

Customer Onboarding

Financial institutions could integrate this function into their onboarding systems to quickly validate customer identification numbers during account opening. This would enhance the user experience by reducing waiting times and automatically alerting staff to any potential issues that need to be addressed.

Healthcare Registration

In medical settings, this identification number identifier can help confirm patient identities against their health records. By ensuring accurate matching of identification numbers, healthcare providers can improve the quality of care and reduce the potential for errors in patient data management.

E-Commerce Fraud Prevention

Online retailers can utilize this function to check user-submitted identification numbers during transactions. By identifying and flagging incorrect or suspicious identification numbers, businesses can significantly reduce the incidence of fraud and chargebacks.

Identity Theft Detection

Insurance companies could leverage this function to monitor claims and policies for any unusual patterns in identification numbers. Early detection of anomalies can help in preventing identity theft and protecting policyholders.

Government Services Streamlining

Public sector agencies could employ this function to verify identification numbers when processing applications for various services, such as permits or licenses. This process would improve efficiency by ensuring that only valid requests are processed, reducing backlog and enhancing service delivery.

Data Quality Assurance

Companies can integrate the identification number validation functionality into their data management systems to ensure the accuracy and integrity of customer databases. By routinely checking for incorrect identification numbers, organizations can maintain high-quality data, which is crucial for targeted marketing and analytics efforts.

Common questions

What's the difference between a zero-shot and a Nyckel-trained classifier?

A zero-shot classifier uses a large foundation model's general knowledge to pick between your labels — no task-specific training, so new or edited labels work immediately. A Nyckel-trained classifier has been trained on labeled examples and runs on Nyckel's own infrastructure, which typically makes it faster, cheaper per call, and more accurate on data that resembles its training set. The "Under the hood" section on this page shows which kind this classifier is, and any classifier can be adapted into a trained one by adding your own examples.

How do I know whether this will work for my application?

Honestly: we can't know in advance — it depends on your data stream and how closely it resembles what this classifier has seen. The reliable way to find out is to measure it on your own data: start invoking the classifier with real traffic, or upload and annotate a set of text samples in the console — make sure they look like your production data, not idealized examples. Nyckel's evaluation metrics then show you exactly how it performs on that data before you rely on it.

What happens when it makes a mistake?

No classifier is perfect, so Nyckel is built around the correction loop: invokes can be captured for review, you confirm or correct predictions in the console, and corrections become training data. Over time the model adapts to your data distribution — accuracy on your traffic improves with use rather than staying fixed.

Do I need training data to get started?

No. This identification number classifier works out of the box — clone it into your console and you'll have your own API endpoint in under a minute. Training data only enters the picture when you want to adapt it: your corrected predictions and uploaded samples improve the model, and you can also edit the label set to match your needs.

What does it cost to try?

Trying the classifier on this page is free with no signup. Cloning it requires a free account, and the free tier covers your first API calls each month — see nyckel.com/pricing for current limits and paid tiers.
