Incode is an AI-powered identity verification platform that lets businesses confirm who is really on the other side of a screen — in under two seconds. Founded in San Francisco in 2015, the company has built a modular biometric platform used by banks, hotels, hospitals, and gaming companies across more than 190 countries. Its flagship product, Incode Omni, handles everything from document verification and facial recognition to AML screening and liveness detection, processing more than 100 million user verifications per year. Backed by General Atlantic, SoftBank, J.P. Morgan, and Capital One Ventures at a $1.25 billion valuation, Incode has been named a Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for Identity Verification two consecutive years running.
Rick Song is the Co-Founder and CEO of Persona, the identity verification platform trusted by OpenAI, Instacart, LinkedIn, and 3,000+ others. A self-described reluctant founder, he left Square in 2018 after five years working on fraud and identity products, convinced there was a better way to build identity infrastructure. By 2025, Persona had completed 300+ million verifications, crossed $100M ARR, raised a $200M Series D at a $2B valuation, and was named a Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for Identity Verification for the second consecutive year.
Doug Aley is the CEO of Paravision, a San Francisco-based AI company building the world's most accurate facial recognition and identity AI technology. A Stanford and Harvard Business School alumnus, Aley co-founded his first company at 19, scaled Zulily from $100M to $700M in sales pre-IPO, and eventually landed at Paravision where he has guided the company to back-to-back #1 global rankings on NIST's Face Recognition Vendor Tests. Under his leadership, Paravision has raised $47M in funding, established itself as the only US company in the top 10 globally for facial recognition accuracy, and built a portfolio of AI tools spanning liveness detection, deepfake detection, and biometric authentication used in government, travel, border security, and enterprise applications worldwide.
