Proof Holdings vs Jumio
Jumio is the enterprise KYX incumbent — deep document-and-biometric identity for regulated onboarding at scale, priced by sales conversation. Proof Holdings is the self-serve layer underneath: filter bots and throwaways from €0.0079 a check before a Jumio verification ever runs.
Let Jumio carry the regulated cases. Proof carries everything before them — a no-identity-data filter, from €0.0079 a check, that keeps bots and throwaway accounts from ever reaching your per-check KYC bill, and stands alone when KYC was never required.

Alongside, not instead
Jumio is one of the enterprise incumbents of KYC — its KYX platform combines document verification, biometric liveness, AML screening, and ongoing monitoring for regulated onboarding. That's the right tool when a regulator requires it. Proof Holdings proves control of an asset with no identity data. Different jobs, and they compose.
The pattern is a pre-KYC filter: run Proof first — cheap, no identity data — to screen out bots and obvious fraud, then send the real applicants to Jumio for the full identity check. Proof runs *alongside* it, reducing how many enterprise verifications you pay for and how much PII you collect. One note: Jumio's pricing is sales-led (a TCO calculator, not a published rate), so treat quoted per-check figures as unofficial.
When you don't need KYC at all
For anti-abuse, account recovery, and marketplace trust, an enterprise KYC check is far more than you need. Proof proves a real, distinct person or business controls the assets behind an account — no ID, no identity data — and returns a portable proof token.
So: regulated identity at enterprise scale → Jumio; a cheap, no-identity-data signal → Proof, alongside or on its own. Jumio is priced through sales; Proof publishes prices from €0.0079 per proof with 300 free monthly and no identity data collected.

- You need deepfake-resistant liveness and continuous post-onboarding monitoring

- You're comfortable with sales-led procurement and contract minimums
When to use Proof Holdings

- You want to establish trust without collecting a government ID
- Your use case never needed full regulatory KYC
- You want published, self-serve, per-proof pricing without an enterprise contract
- You want a portable proof of asset control, not an identity dossier
- You want to collect PII from fewer people
