Onfido

Onfido became one of the best-known remote identity-verification vendors by combining document checks, selfie biometrics, liveness, and workflow orchestration into a developer-friendly platform. Its Real Identity Platform is designed for onboarding and account-protection use cases where organizations need to verify a person remotely while balancing conversion, fraud controls, and regulatory compliance.

The company has been especially influential in fintech, mobility, marketplaces, and digital services, where document and face verification must be embedded into mobile and web journeys. Since its acquisition by Entrust, Onfido also sits within a broader trust and credentialing portfolio, which increases its relevance for organizations thinking about identity proofing as one layer in a larger digital-trust stack.
