How it's ranked: Customers, businesses or organizations each vendor says it serves, as published on its own website (read November 2026). Counts are each company's own claims and are measured differently. AU10TIX, Incode, Jumio, Plaid, Stripe and Trulioo publish no customer count, so they are ranked after the vendors that do, in alphabetical order.

Mitek

Mitek Systems · Identity verification, liveness and digital fraud defense

7,000+ organizations

The most widely used, with 40 years in banking.

Mitek says more than 7,000 organizations rely on it, the highest customer count published by any vendor on this list. It was founded in 1986 with a focus on image analytics and OCR for financial institutions, and its about page puts its track record at 1.3B+ identities verified and 8.8B+ mobile checks analyzed. Its MiVIP identity verification platform checks documents, biometrics, liveness and device and behavioral signals, while IDLive Face and IDLive Doc handle liveness detection and MiPass adds biometric authentication for returning users. The fraud side is a big part of the pitch: Mitek says it detects deepfakes, biometric spoofing, injection attacks and synthetic identities, and it uses shared consortium intelligence to keep learning. It fits banks and big consumer brands that want onboarding, account access and fraud defense from one supplier with a long history in regulated finance.

The U.S. banking favorite.
