A simple introduction to Valyd

Your identity, verified once. Trusted everywhere.

Valyd is a verified-identity platform. Prove who you are a single time, then sign in and share exactly what's needed across every app that uses Valyd — privately, and without repeating yourself.

What you can do with Valyd

A Valyd ID is your verified identity — your face, your verified details, and every proof you've earned. Here's what it unlocks.

Verify once, reuse everywhere

Pass a check — ID, liveness, a license lookup — and the result is saved to your Valyd ID as a proof. The next app just reads it. No re-uploading documents.

Sign in with your face

“Sign in with Valyd” logs you into apps with your face instead of a password — like Sign in with Google, but tied to your verified identity.

Share answers, not documents

Apps never see your ID. They get the answer they need — verified, over 18, license valid — and nothing more. You approve exactly what each one can read.

Prove it's really you, on demand

A quick face match can confirm it's you before a sensitive action — a payout, a settings change, a shift clock-in — so an account alone is never enough.

Licenses & credentials, kept current

Professional licenses are checked against the real registry and can be re-verified, so an expired or revoked one is caught — not trusted from last year.

One account per real person

Liveness and face uniqueness stop a photo standing in for you and catch the same face opening a second account — so identities stay genuine.

How Valyd works

One simple loop: verify once, sign in anywhere, and only re-prove what a service actually needs.

  1. 01

    Verify once

    Scan your ID, pass a liveness check, match your face. Valyd runs the check for real and saves the passed result to your Valyd ID as a reusable proof.

  2. 02

    Connect to an app

    Tap “Sign in with Valyd” and authenticate with your face — no password. You approve exactly what that app is allowed to read.

  3. 03

    Prove what's needed

    The app reads the proofs you already hold. If something's missing or needs to be fresh, it runs a quick check — and that saves back to your ID too.

Privacy by design

Your face never leaves your control

Valyd is built so that proving who you are doesn't mean handing your identity around. Here's exactly what that means for your data.

Biometric PolicyPrivacy Policy

  • An irreversible, encrypted vector — not a photo

    Your face is turned into a one-way mathematical template. We don't keep the image it came from.

  • Never sold, never used to train models

    Your biometric data is used only to verify you and prevent fraud — never sold, never fed to AI training.

  • Organizations get a result, not your face

    Apps receive a pass/fail — “verified”, “over 18”, “license valid” — and never your face vector or documents.

  • You stay in control

    Delete your Valyd ID whenever you want; it's also removed automatically after two years of inactivity.
