I've never seen a company release incredible products with as high velocity as Stripe has over the last few years. Truly incredible. $1.50/user may sound outrageously expensive at first, but having seen all the engineering power it takes to build something like this at Uber...it's a totally fair price.

Amazing how Stripe consistently executes fantastic solutions for all the very real and difficult pain points of building commercial products on the web. Fantastic work!

Absolute game changer, other actors in this market have big bulky sales processes with difficult pricing models and high commitment. If Stripe is competitive on pricing they will definitely win this market.

Having experienced the end-user flow for Identity when doing bot verification on Discord, this was an incredibly seamless product back then, when it was presumably in beta. Can only imagine its even cleaner and faster now its officially released.

The Stripe Identity product is fantastic. Some of the most impressive things:

1. If you are at a desktop, there is an easy transition to using your phone to take a picture of your ID (or a selfie if that's the use case - it will match selfies with ID photos), and then complete verification on the desktop.

2. It does all the image analysis (i.e. is the ID in focus, etc.) in browser without the need for a native app.
