Incode Acquires AuthenticID

We’re thrilled to announce that Incode has acquired AuthenticID, bringing together two leaders in digital identity to form a global AI powerhouse built for the next era of secure, scalable IDV—a market projected to grow to $116 billion by 2027.

Incode founder and CEO Ricardo Amper welcomed the AuthenticID team at Incode’s office.

This deal unites Incode’s cutting-edge AI-driven solutions with AuthenticID’s deep enterprise expertise, delivering a powerful and unified approach to combating rapidly evolving, AI-powered fraud.

Together, we’re redefining how businesses and individuals connect safely, confidently, and seamlessly in a digital-first world. The acquisition is expected to accelerate our 80% year-on-year organic growth rate and further solidify Incode’s leadership position in the market.

Incode and AuthenticID met at Incode’s office to launch their exciting new partnership.

Complementary Strengths Elevate Customer Value

This acquisition marks a watershed moment for Incode to help more customers eliminate fraud while maximizing growth, at scale.

Incode’s proprietary AI innovations—including advanced neural networks and large visual language models trained to detect and prevent identity fraud in real time—lead the industry in accuracy, adaptability, and speed.

AuthenticID adds deep expertise in regulated, high-volume environments, ensuring enterprise customers get not only best-in-class technology but also flawless professional services and implementation.

Hardening the Front Line Against AI-Powered Fraud

The combined entity will deliver innovative, proven technology solutions to combat the most advanced AI threats. These threats include GenAI toolkits that synthesize deepfakes—photoreal faces and voices—in real time, leading to a 300% YoY jump in account-opening fraud.

They also include a rise in AI agents entering production. Gartner predicts that over 25 % of all consumer interactions will be handled end‑to‑end by fully autonomous agents. Without trusted identity rails, those agents become prime targets for impersonation.

AuthenticID CEO Reed Taussig addressed the team at the Incode office.

“In the age of synthetic fraud, AI impersonation, and Agentic AI, verifying human identity has become the foundation of digital trust. Together with AuthenticID, we’re hardening the front line against these threats, so every enterprise can trust every interaction,” said Ricardo Amper, Founder & CEO of Incode.

“As AI-driven fraud becomes more sophisticated, our clients need more than just point solutions – they need a holistic AI-first approach delivered by a true strategic partner,” said Reed Taussig, CEO of AuthenticID. “Incode’s vision and AI technology leadership, leveraging foundational vision models, enable us to deliver an identity orchestration platform that is fast, secure, and highly adaptive across our expanded customer base.”

A Global AI-First Identity Leader Built for What’s Next

This acquisition marks the creation of a new category-defining leader in AI-powered digital identity. Together, the combined company:

Processed 4.1B+ identity checks in 2024
Serves 8 of the largest 10 banks in the United States

Works with 4 of the top 5 banks in Latin America
Secures 3 of the top 3 global neobanks
Defends hundreds of leaders in social media, ecommerce, transportation, and retail against fraud

With this move, Incode further solidifies its leadership position as the AI identity infrastructure powering the next decade of secure, scalable enterprise growth.
