{"id":65290,"title":"AiPrise: Identity Verification Made Simple","tagline":"Harness the power of all identity vendors through one platform","body":"tl;dr We let you ensure that your users are really who they claim to be. We do this by integrating with multiple vendors and exposing them all through one single platform.\n\nHey everyone, Rushabh \u0026 Chaitanya here. We’re a team of enthusiastic product builders. Chaitanya brings 4+ years of experience in the Trust and Safety space as a tech lead from Google, while Rushabh brings an in-depth experience in building developer focussed products through his role as a Staff Engineer at Meta. We are super excited to publicly announce the launch of AiPrise. **We officially went live with our first few customers in just under 45 days!**\n\n### **⚠️ Problem**\n\nDoes your platform require you to know who your customers are (aka - KYC / identity verification)?\n\nPeople who have hunted for KYC/KYB providers in the past are probably already thinking - “Oh ok - here goes one more KYX provider”.\n\n_Hint: We aren’t yet another KYX provider_\n\nTrue identity verification is super challenging. **No one** provider is usually sufficient to meet all your needs. Each country has different compliance requirements, each platform has a different risk appetite, and simply checking the KYC boxes is usually not enough to prevent real fraud on a platform.\n\nOn an average, a company ends up integrating with **10+ identity providers** over time. Layering multiple vendors is not just more fraud proof, but also cost effective in certain cases.\n\nInteresting stuff we heard from other companies:\n\n1. **Cost Optimization** Local providers tend to be cheaper for a given region, but have limited coverage. Use a local provider for requests from a certain country, if it fails - fall back to a more expensive global provider.\n2. **Device Attributes:** Regular KYC checks have become too easy for fraudsters. In one case, fraudulent users gained access to legitimate IDs, but the attack was thwarted as all the requests came in with a specific screen resolution set by a bot farm.\n\nWe can go on and on about the list here, But the gist is that on an average, a company ends up writing **100+ rules** using a varied combination of APIs just to prevent account opening scams.\n\nThink about the complexity of the decision engine over time and the resources it takes to maintain them!\\\n\\\n**💡 Solution**\n\nMeet AiPrise: AiPrise provides companies with a single platform with pre-integrated APIs to pick and choose from and easily manage their identity stack.\n\nYou can quickly drag and drop the vendors that best suit your needs into a workflow, add conditional logic on top of it and voila! You are done!\n\nNo more talking to 10 different vendors and negotiating contracts with them. No more reading through the docs of 10 different vendors and integrating them one by one. **You only need to integrate with us once, and get access to all the APIs you need on the go!**\n\nWe already have 15+ vendors integrated on our platform - enabling not just the usual documentary checks, but also KYB and fraud detection.\n\n![uploaded image](https://bookface.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=65290\u0026key=user_uploads/991872/05cd0a28-d59c-41ed-bda5-673ef156fd3c)\n\n_Glimpse of how you can manage your identity stack with AiPrise_\n\n**What’s more?**\n\n1.
