Yoti

Overview

Yoti, founded in 2014, provides digital identity, age verification, and age estimation, including a reusable consumer identity app, alongside conventional verification. It is increasingly relevant as age-assurance regulation expands across markets. See all identity verification vendors for alternatives.

What it is good at

Age verification and privacy-preserving age estimation are the strengths, well-timed for new age-assurance laws, along with a reusable consumer ID app that lets users prove identity without re-sharing documents. For age-restricted services and platforms, this focus is differentiated from generic KYC vendors. Its age-estimation technology can confirm an age band from a selfie without collecting a document at all, which lowers friction and data collection for age-gated content and retail.

Where it falls short

Yoti's focus on age and reusable identity makes it more specialized than broad KYC vendors, so a team that only needs traditional document KYC, or a pure fraud-data provider, may not need its distinctive features. Reusable-ID adoption depends on consumer uptake, and pricing is quote-based. For buyers whose need is conventional document KYC or pure fraud data, the age and reusable-identity specialisation is less relevant than a general-purpose verification platform.

Pricing

Usage-based and quote-based. Model your real volume with the TCO calculator. Costs depend on whether you use age estimation, document verification, or the reusable ID app, so map your mix first.

Best for, and who should look elsewhere

Choose Yoti when you need age verification, age estimation, or reusable digital ID, especially for age-restricted services. For traditional document KYC consider Onfido or Veriff; for an all-in-one compliance platform consider Sumsub.

Bottom line

A strong choice for age verification and reusable digital identity.
