wow this is very cool! I can see something like this becoming ubiquitous in the e-com space. For example, I am sure Amazon and Shopify could use something like this to verify new sellers opening up a business on their platform. There are so many scams these days.. it would help sanitize the industry. I will be keeping up with your progress. Congrats on the launch!

@toniena_ thank you!! we actually launched in ecommerce for that reason. We even opened an office in Mexico because of that - they have the highest online e-commerce fraud in the world so we thought if we can prove out our product there, it will work anywhere. The plan is to make verifying yourself online as simple as login with facebook. Then we can give it out to everyone, drop the price, and see if we can help help with fraud and help makers create digital services that build communities with built-in trust.

@filipvictor that makes sense! I think it would certainly improve people's experience online. We need more companies like yours with a big vision for what the internet can become :) Good luck!

Very excited to see these guys gaining recognition - I attended one of their launch events in Mexico City and left very impressed. The big name clientele they've already on-boarded in Mex is a testament to the need for secure identity verification here that combats the rampant fraud in e-commerce..interested (and hoping) to see how this will make waves in the online travel space. Wishing you guys luck in LatAm and beyond!

Very interesting. KYC/AML is definitely a big issue in many countries. Just curious though, has anyone from Indonesia/Malaysia inform you that Mati means Death in their languages?

Sadly, it's a tool that seems very convenient on the surface. But only if you don't require that some feature for integration like the webhooks, or "verified timetamps" be properly documented. Specifically don't count on certified timestamps (RFC3161 or NOM151 if you have this legal requirement for Mexico) because it's completely broken: 1st) they dump in a textarea the binary timestamp therefore corrupting it completely. In a document they claim to make it available in base64 but that is simply not true. And don't ask them to put some of it in the documentation because there is no answer nor compromise. The support chat is a terrible experience, because the agent seems not very well trained in tech issues like hashes, and only seems to repeat what other people are telling him to say. ?Why don't you want to document the RFC3161 feature properly and with transparency in order to make it a feature that a business with this legal requirement can depend on you?
