Cognito
Identity verification and KYC solutions for onboarding, screening and fraud prevention
Cognito is an identity verification and compliance platform that helps companies verify customers during onboarding and throughout the customer lifecycle. It addresses requirements for KYC, fraud prevention, trust and safety, and AML compliance, covering checks from initial verification through ongoing watchlist screening.
The platform offers three main products: Flow, an all-in-one ID verification solution with ID document checks, selfie and liveness verification, instant PII and address verification, SMS verification, phone ID linking, and integrated watchlist and PEP screening; Identity, which verifies users starting from a phone number linked to traditional ID data; and Screening, which provides global watchlist and PEP screening with multi-lingual name matching, daily re-scans, and a compliance CRM for manual reviews. Integration options include no-code hosted links, hybrid API and UI approaches, and full API integration with client SDKs.
Cognito is designed for companies managing customer onboarding, compliance, and fraud prevention at scale. A Sandbox environment is available for exploring the platform, and pricing details are available through the site's pricing page.
