Hey everyone 👋 Super excited to finally share Bolt Identity with you all! We built it after seeing how much money businesses quietly lose to fraudulent signups and synthetic users trying to slip past systems, chasing signup bonuses, abusing SaaS freemium plans, and more. The numbers are staggering. Each KYC verification costs around $1–$3, and roughly 20–25% of total signups are fake, fraudulent, or high-risk. That’s thousands of dollars burned every month verifying users who were never real in the first place. So we flipped the model. Instead of catching fraud during KYC, Bolt stops it before it happens. We built the world’s first Single Signup Fraud Detection API, a "soft KYC" layer that analyzes every signup in real time using identity intelligence like name, email, phone, IP, address, and more. It flags risky users instantly before KYC costs hit, helping businesses save up to 50–80% in declined verification expenses while keeping compliance smooth and global in a single API call. The best part? The API adapts to your needs. Signups, checkouts, fintech flows, marketplaces, you name it. And that’s just one use case. With Bolt, teams can also handle AML screening, business verification, synthetic identity detection, fake leads, checkout fraud, and address verification, including USPS validation, all powered by real-time identity intelligence. We’re not here to make compliance faster. We’re here to make it smarter. A future where identity verification isn’t a cost center but your first line of defense. Would love your thoughts and feedback! 🚀
