Berbix provides instant online ID verification by analyzing photo IDs to confirm a user’s age and identity in real time, enabling platforms to verify individuals, reduce chargebacks, and strengthen KYC. It offers hosted, industry-specific tools that can be customized to address fraud risks unique to different markets. Based in San Francisco, California, the company operates with a small team focused on identity and fraud prevention. Founded by former Trust & Safety leaders from Airbnb, Berbix sits at the intersection of identity verification and fraud management. In 2023, the company was acquired by Socure and its technology was integrated into Socure’s platform as part of a new document verification offering (DocV 3.0). This development reflects Berbix’s ongoing role in supporting platforms that require reliable identity checks to deter fraud.
