Core capabilities
Modular identity verification components including document checks, database verification, biometric checks, watchlist screening, and a case management system for reviewing flagged users, all configurable through a no-code workflow builder or API.
Strengths
- High configurability allows businesses to build verification flows specific to their risk model rather than a one-size-fits-all flow
- Strong developer experience with flexible APIs and a no-code builder for non-technical teams
- Used across a wide range of industries including HR and gig-economy platforms, not just financial services
Watch points
- Flexibility means more configuration work upfront compared to providers with pre-built standard flows
- Businesses without dedicated implementation resources may need longer onboarding to set up workflows correctly
- Pricing scales with usage and selected modules, so costs depend heavily on configuration choices
