Yoti
Yoti is a digital identity company that makes it safer for people to prove who they are. We started by empowering people with a free, reusable Digital ID app that minimises the data they share with businesses. We now provide verification solutions across the globe, spanning identity verification, age verification, age estimation, eSigning, authentication and liveness detection
We’re committed to making the digital world safer for everyone. Our seven ethical principles guide us in everything we do and we’re held accountable by our Guardian Council. With an award-winning social purpose strategy, we’re always looking for new ways to explore what (digital) identity means globally. The journey isn’t one we’re making alone, but with the help of policy advisers, think tanks, researchers, humanitarian bodies and everyday people.
