What authID is
authID is a biometric identity platform for verifying users and protecting accounts and digital assets. Its Proof onboarding process checks a physical ID, captures a selfie, checks liveness, and compares the document image with the selfie. Verified uses a facial image and a pre-registered biometric hash to authenticate returning users without passwords. Listed uses include remote onboarding, account recovery, password resets, high-risk transactions, and account takeover prevention. The company says Proof does not require biometrics to be stored. It lists integrations including Auth0, Okta Workforce Identity Cloud, Microsoft O365 and Azure, BeyondTrust, Temenos, Ping, VMware, and Zendesk. Customers can test API calls, user experience, and the admin portal in cloud or on-premise environments. A free 30-day trial is offered, with applicants contacted within 24 hours to arrange a demo. Pricing is on request; the enterprise plan is billed monthly or annually, priced by transaction or active users per year, and charges only for completed verifications. The platform supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.
