Three friends who met at Oxford University move to London and start Onfido. Husayn, Eamon, and Ruhul start looking for investments to broaden access to services online by making identity verification more accessible.
The Saïd business school at Oxford grants initial seed funding of $30,000. The team builds an ID Record Verification solution and win their first client.
The trio moves into their first office in Paddington. They get to work building a team to widen the capabilities of their ID record solution and hire 15 Onfidoers to join their team.
By now 62 Onfidoers are working together in Covent Garden. Our Seed A funding raises $4.5 million. The first four company values are codified: Succeed Together, Take Pride, Learn Things and Share Them, and Find a Better Way.
We bring our document and biometric verification solution to market and open our first U.S. office in San Francisco. 118 Onfidoers are now working to create a more open world, where identity is the key to access.
We launch our SDK and it’s integrated by our first major fintech client. We now have five offices worldwide and have completed over 2.2 million verifications.
We introduce biometric video liveness technology, file our first patents, and publish our first technical papers. We’ve now caught over 500,000 fraud attempts for our clients, and partnered with more and more innovative companies.
There are now 277 Onfidoers across eight offices. 2.6 million Slack messages have been sent. An immeasurable amount of coffee has been drunk.
We have to go remote, but our spirit endures. We zoom our way to become a team of 400+. We continue to grow worldwide and achieve 237% sales growth in the U.S.
We continue to expand our product offerings, surpassing over $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) and reaching 600 Onfidoers worldwide.
We launch our Real Identity Platform with the objective of making identity verification simple for everyone. We also add Motion, the next generation in biometric liveness technology.
We acquire Airside to transform digital identity to be shareable and user-controlled. Users will verify once, store credentials on their device, then share to instantly access services.
We are acquired by Entrust, forming the most comprehensive portfolio of AI-powered, identity-centric security solutions on the market.
