INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., Feb. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Socure, the leading AI-driven platform for digital identity verification, fraud prevention, and sanctions screening, achieved unparalleled growth and performance in 2024.

AI-Powered Performance Continues to Improve as Threats Evolve
While AI and automation have empowered fraudsters, Socure’s AI solutions have thrived on the offensive, delivering unprecedented accuracy and efficiency through the combined power of AI innovation and the Risk Insights Network Consortium.

- Document Verification: Socure’s DocV solution led the industry with 98.2% true accept rates and completed verifications in an unparalleled 1.5 seconds (p99 speed).
- First-Party Fraud Consortium: The industry’s first and largest cross-industry consortium now includes 190 million contributed identities, 325 million accounts, and 20 billion transactions, creating a unified approach to detecting and stopping first-party fraud.

New Innovations and Expanded Capabilities
Socure’s relentless innovation was underscored by the filing of 16 new patents in 2024, with two patents granted for advancements in fraud prevention and document verification technology. Socure also earned a Leader position in the inaugural 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Identity Verification.
Socure extended its leadership in identity verification by launching enhancements to its prefill solution, achieving first-time prefill rates of over 90%, outperforming any other competitor by over 40% in absolute terms.
Additionally, Socure addressed new identity and risk vectors for multi-factor authentication, Zelle enrollment, progressive on-boarding, sim swaps and profile changes utilizing Socure’s email and phone verification with both coverage and fraud capture besting the rest of the industry by 20% and 25% absolute respectively. Lastly, Socure has been able to use AI to reduce sanctions screening review time from 15 minutes down to less than one minute using its GenAI explainability agent, and much more. These capabilities allow businesses to onboard, verify, authenticate and risk rate customers faster and more accurately than ever before, securing trust at every interaction across any consumer use case.
CEO Perspective
“Identity is the foundation of trust in today’s digital economy,” said Johnny Ayers, Founder and CEO of Socure. “We’re not just combating increasingly sophisticated fraudsters using deepfakes, synthetic IDs, automated agents and complex injection attacks—we’re transforming how businesses verify good customers instantly, at near perfect accuracy. Our growth reflects the massive demand for certainty in identity verification across industries, and we’re proving deployment after deployment that no one delivers the performance or value like Socure.”
