TransCrypts is a blockchain-based digital identity and credential verification company that lets people own and instantly share verified employment, income, education, and health records. Founded in 2020 by cousins Zain Zaidi and Ali Zaheer, it replaces the slow, costly background-check pipeline with permission-based, fraud-proof verification - including JustScreen, billed as the world's first free background check service. Backed by Pantera Capital, Mark Cuban, and others, it serves millions of users and hundreds of enterprises, including Fortune 100 and 500 companies.
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.
Argyle is a consumer-permissioned verification platform that pulls real-time income, employment, and asset data straight from the source - payroll systems and bank accounts - through an API and no-code console. Instead of faxed pay stubs and HR phone calls, lenders, background screeners, and tenant screeners get instant, direct-source verifications covering roughly 90% of the U.S. workforce. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in New York, the company has raised over $100M from Bain Capital Ventures, Rockefeller Asset Management, Mastercard, Checkr, and SignalFire.
