Recognize users by their typing behavior with our low-code API and the free unlimited Developer version. Collect user typing patterns on any platform without friction, submit in one API call, and let us do the rest.
@shane_lowe1 Great question! The technology needs a bit more text than just a word. The "same text" version works well with anything around 20-40 chars (e.g. email address+password). In the particular case of 30 chars, in our tests we were able to reach absolute 0% FAR in approx. 10,000, but that comes with some FRR (false reject). It also depends on how many previous samples one submits, the technology works even with just one or two, but starts shining at minimum of 3.
In essence we can say the technology is comparable with face recognition based on regular camera (even better because regular camera based face recognition tech can be easily hacked). On mobile devices however, we're able to reach similar accuracy with about half the amount of text because we're also looking at telemetry data (device movement while the user is typing).
I've been a fan of @raulpopa and TypingDNA since meeting them at Techstars. Very excited to see them launching their new dev tool. Congrats on the launch!
@anant_garg Hey! We have recorders/SDK's for the web (JS), Java/Android/iOS/React Native as well as a Node client for server-side communication with our API's. They're all open source and up on our GitHub, let me know if you have any questions -- or have an additional platform in mind you think we should consider! It's important to us that we are present wherever people are typing, so be on the lookout for more platforms in the future.
Side note: Very impressive product you've built with cometchat. You clearly are familiar with the struggle of abstracting complexity to simplify things for the user :) And kudos on the API docs!

Seem like the next big thing in the security domain. 👍
Congratulations Raul!
The dashboard looks incredibly sleek! And the API key tracking/graphs etc. are super useful!
Would love to know behind-the-scenes details of what your experience was like building an API product. E.g. Did you implement API key generation/credits/monitoring/graphs etc. yourself or did you use some external API gateway solution?
@essaygirlsdaily Hey Laura -- we chose to implement the API management features you listed ourselves. That is not to say everything was written from scratch, of course -- libraries are leveraged where it makes sense (Chart.js for the dashboard visualizations). The decision to not rely on a core API management service/provider is simply that it wasn't needed -- our team had a specific set of well understood requirements, and a preference to spend our time developing the right solution rather than configuring an off-the-shelf product to fit our needs (inevitably changing our requirements to fit the constraints of the service along the way).
That said, we're always re-assessing the tech we use and aren't dogmatic about it -- if a feature on the API side were best addressed by a 3rd party service in the future, it would be considered. I hope that answers your question, it seems like a popular topic -- perhaps we should write a blog post in the future on our behind-the-scenes tech. Thanks
This is seriously awesome. Tried all the demos, purposefully manipulating my normal typing by various amounts and it matched my assumptions about how much it would tolerate before failing the auth.
@brian_fritton Always happy to see such feedback. Is there anything you don't like about it? Or something you'd change about the demos, functionality, etc?

Cool. Which tech stack are you using?

TypingDna is really a game changer in the World of Security and Biometrics. It helps to eliminate most hacking threats that affects most Web application online ranging from phishing, Brute Force Attack, Session Hijacking, Session Fixation Attack, Spambots Attacks etc. I have already used TypingDna to implement a plugin for Wordpress via Multi-Factor or 2 way factor authentications to protect over a billion of Web-hosted applications running on Wordpress
