About Fingerprint
Fingerprint provides a device intelligence platform that identifies web and mobile visitors. It sells to businesses of all sizes, with over 6000 customers. The platform helps stop fraud, detect bots and AI agents, and improve user experience. It identifies both good and bad visitors, even anonymous ones, using browser and device signals. The company offers Smart Signals, which are risk indicators such as VPN, proxy, incognito, tampering, and virtual machine detection. These signals feed into a Suspect Score to help fraud teams make decisions. Fingerprint also provides bot detection that distinguishes good bots like search engines from malicious automation tools. It integrates with major cloud providers and offers SDKs for web and mobile. Fingerprint began as an open-source project in 2012 and became a SaaS product in 2019. It has raised $77 million and holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications. The company is fully remote and serves customers across many industries.
