Incode, a leading provider of identity verification and authentication solutions for global enterprises, today announced it has been recognized as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Identity Verification, which evaluated 12 vendors in the identity verification market. Incode was named a Leader in the first-ever Magic Quadrant for Identity Verification in 2024, in 2025, and again in 2026 .
As fraudsters increasingly leverage generative AI, deepfakes, and synthetic identities, organizations face growing challenges in establishing trust online. Autonomous agents now run entire identity-attack workflows end to end. They generate synthetic documents, produce deepfakes tuned to a specific detector, and adapt after every rejection, without a human in the loop. Incode believes this recognition reflects its continued investment in staying ahead of that shift .
"Anyone can have a good year. We feel three consecutive years as a Leader reflects consistency, and consistency is what enterprises buy," said Ricardo Amper, Founder and CEO of Incode. "As deepfakes and synthetic identities scale, we keep customers ahead by verifying identity at its source and training our defenses the same way agentic attackers operate" .
Incode's inclusion in the Magic Quadrant highlights its ongoing commitment to innovation. Key differentiators include:
Verification anchored to authoritative sources. Incode verifies people against the government's own records, not just the document: 0.01% false acceptance, 6x faster, with a 20% conversion uplift .
Security without friction. More precise verification needs less manual review, so fewer good users get stopped by extra checks .
Built for the agentic fraud era. Incode continuously runs an agentic attacker against its own defenses, powered by more than 35 proprietary models built in-house, with zero successful bypasses in independent penetration testing .
Continuous trust across every interaction. The trust network flags repeat fraud and recognizes trusted history across organizations, without pooling raw data, spanning 7.1 billion identity checks .
Configurable for every identity journey. One platform orchestrates multiple verification paths and conditional logic, from bank onboarding to government benefits .
In June 2026, Incode completed the acquisition of Identiq, a company specializing in privacy-enhancing cryptographic solutions for peer-to-peer anti-fraud collaboration, as part of a $100 million commitment to advancing its privacy-preserving identity infrastructure . The acquisition enables institutions to detect repeat fraud patterns across a network without exposing customer personal data, eliminating the need for central data lakes or data brokerage . Incode's privacy architecture rests on three foundational decisions: AI-first identity verification, on-device processing, and collaboration without exposure .
Incode's customer base includes eight of the top 10 U.S. banks, eight of the top nine U.S. telcos, three of the top three global neobanks, and four of the top five global marketplaces . The company employs more than 600 people across 25+ nationalities and is headquartered in San Francisco, California .
