Didit

a third of the going rate, and it throws the face away when it's done

$0.33 / full kyc check#teams-who-want-the-lowes#the-shortest-data-retent

the cheapest published price here by a wide margin, with the best default retention posture of any vendor ranked — from the youngest company on the list.

at $0.33 for a full check Didit is less than half the next cheapest published price, and the free tier is not a trial: 500 full kyc verifications every month, resetting monthly, permanently. that is more free capacity than most startups will use in their first year, and unlike the fourteen-day trials elsewhere here it does not expire into a sales call.

the retention posture is the reason it ranks first rather than merely cheapest. by default face images, liveness video and embeddings are deleted with the session — the vendor keeps nothing. buyers who need duplicate detection can opt into storing a single image-free face template with a configurable window from one month to ten years, and there is a per-session delete endpoint. against Socure keeping biometrics up to three years with no buyer control, that is a categorical difference in exposure, and it is the difference that matters if you are ever the subject of a biometric privacy claim.

the description above is ours, condensed from the ranking. pricing moves — check it on the vendor's own page before you rely on it.

our verdict

the cheapest published price here by a wide margin, with the best default retention posture of any vendor ranked — from the youngest company on the list.

we researched this category against vendors' own pricing pages and licence files. that is where this line comes from — not from the vendor, and not from anything they paid for.
