Didit Alternative: Hypersign vs Didit for KYC, KYB & Consent
Didit is a genuinely cheap, modular identity API with 25+ a-la-carte modules and a generous free tier. Hypersign covers the same document, biometric, KYB, and AML ground, then adds a standalone Consent API, an encrypted identity vault, and selective disclosure with zero-knowledge age proofs, as shipped product, not blog content. Here's how they actually compare.
To be fair to Didit: Didit's pricing is genuinely hard to beat on transparency, 500 full KYC checks free every month, no card required, then $0.33 per check with published per-module rates for everything from AML to KYB. Its document coverage (220+ countries, 14,000+ document types) and certification set (SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 27017/27018, iBeta Level 1) are broad too. If self-serve price transparency and fast integration are what you're optimizing for, that's a real Didit strength.
At a Glance
A Modular Identity API vs. a Bundled Compliance Platform
Didit sells 25+ verification modules a-la-carte at transparent per-check prices. Hypersign bundles the equivalent modules with consent management, an identity vault, and selective disclosure into one platform and one contract.
Didit pricing and features referenced from didit.me/pricing, didit.me/products/business-verification, and didit.me/security-compliance (Full KYC bundle $0.33/check with 500 free/month, KYB $2.00/business, AML $0.20/check; Enterprise custom-quoted). Accurate as of research date; confirm current rates directly with Didit before making a purchasing decision.
What Didit Actually Is
A cheap, modular identity API, with reuse as a feature name.
Didit's real strength is breadth and price: 25+ modules, document verification, liveness, face match, KYB, AML, transaction monitoring, wallet screening, priced individually and transparently, with 500 free checks every month and no card required to start.
What we could not confirm as shipped product on Didit's own pages: a standalone consent-management API (consent is captured inside workflow steps, not sold as discrete infrastructure), a dedicated credential vault or wallet ("Reusable KYC" appears as a named free-tier feature with no vault architecture documented), or a live W3C DID/Verifiable Credential issuance product, despite extensive blog content on selective disclosure and decentralized identity concepts.
What Hypersign Actually Is
Consent, a vault, and selective disclosure, as shipped product.
Hypersign pairs document, biometric, KYB, and AML verification with a dedicated Consent API and an encrypted, consent-linked identity vault, both live infrastructure, not workflow steps. On top of that, Hypersign issues W3C Verifiable Credentials with BBS+ selective disclosure and zero-knowledge age/threshold proofs, so a user can prove "over 18" or "EU resident" without exposing the document underneath.
Deployment is API, embeddable widget, or hosted magic link, whichever fits your integration.
Choosing Between Them
Neither Is Wrong. They Fit Different Teams.
Choose Didit if
- Per-check price transparency and a generous free tier are your top priority, especially pre-revenue or early-stage.
- You want to pick individual modules a-la-carte rather than a bundled plan.
- You don't yet need standalone consent infrastructure or a portable credential vault, and can add them later.
- Fast SDK or MCP-based AI-agent integration matters more than deep compliance tooling today.
Choose Hypersign if
- You need a dedicated Consent API and an encrypted, consent-linked identity vault as standing infrastructure, not workflow steps.
- You want selective disclosure and zero-knowledge age proofs on open W3C DID/VC standards, shipped, not just written about.
- You'd rather have one bundled plan than assemble and price 25+ modules yourself.
- You want API, widget, and magic link deployment from day one.
