Reprompt
Reprompt builds AI agents for location data. Mapping companies like Foursquare, TomTom, and Radar use its agents to keep points-of-interest and business records current - verifying hours, status, ownership, and dozens of other attributes by cross-referencing web, social, government, and news sources. Founded in 2024 by ex-Mapbox and ex-Robinhood operators, the company turns work that once took weeks of manual research into runs that finish in under an hour.
Mesh
Mesh is an Austin-based, API-first B2B identity platform that verifies, onboards, and monitors small businesses and licensed professionals in real time. Founded in 2020 by ex-Amazon executives Diego Asenjo and Tony Bryan, Mesh combines professional license verification, business legitimacy checks, insurance and tax signals, and ongoing risk monitoring into a single multi-factor API - often described as 'Plaid for business identity.' It serves marketplaces, ecommerce platforms, fintechs, and construction/property-tech companies, with 100% coverage for state-licensed professionals in categories like contracting, home services, cosmetology, and architecture.
Trulioo
Trulioo is a Vancouver-based global identity platform that helps banks, fintechs, marketplaces and crypto firms verify both people and businesses in seconds. Through a single API it combines KYC, KYB, AML watchlist screening, document and biometric verification, and credit decisioning, drawing on data sources that reach billions of people and hundreds of millions of businesses worldwide. The pitch is simple: prove who - and what - you are dealing with, anywhere on earth, without stitching together a dozen regional vendors.
Middesk
Middesk is a San Francisco-based business identity platform that helps banks, fintechs, lenders, and marketplaces verify the businesses they transact with. Its KYB APIs turn the slow, paper-heavy process of vetting a company into a real-time decision, powering onboarding at firms like Brex, Plaid, Mercury, Gusto, Affirm, and Shopify.
