KYCAID, a global provider of compliance solutions, has been recognized as a top-performing vendor in the 2026 Identity Verification Market Review released by Be Verified, an independent RegTech analytics platform. The report, which evaluates providers based on the proprietary Be Verified IV-Index, awarded KYCAID a high trust score, positioning it alongside industry heavyweights like Sumsub and Veriff.
The independent analysis highlights KYCAID as the market leader in the "High-Conversion Onboarding" category, specifically noting its ability to balance strict 2026 regulatory demands — such as Brazil’s Sigap and the EU AI Act — without sacrificing user acquisition speeds.
The Shift to Hybrid Verification
As the iGaming and Fintech sectors face a 300% rise in AI-generated fraud (deepfakes), the Be Verified report serves as a critical benchmark for decision-makers. The analysis suggests a market pivot away from "Black Box" AI solutions toward "Hybrid" models that retain human oversight.
"Being recognized by Be Verified validates our strategy," said Mykola Mashkovskyi, CEO of KYCAID. "While many providers rely solely on AI, which creates false positives in complex markets like LatAm, our approach combines advanced automation with expert review. This independent report confirms that the market prioritizes accuracy and revenue protection over theoretical automation."
