Onfido alternative

Onfido is the gold-standard KYC / identity-verification platform. Passport, driver's license, selfie — the full regulated stack. Every major fintech uses Onfido or one of its competitors.

THE WRONG TOOL FOR SIGNUP-TIME FRAUD FILTERING. KYC takes minutes per check and costs $1+. You don't want to make every signup fill out a passport form — you want to filter the obvious bots before they get to the KYC step.

THE RIGHT FUNNEL: SignupDoggy filters obvious bots at signup (sub-50ms, $0.01 per check). Then Onfido or Persona runs KYC on the users who actually need to be verified (paying customers, regulated industries).

If your product needs KYC, use Onfido. If your product needs to filter bot signups, use SignupDoggy. They're complementary, not competing.
