Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Fingerprint operates a device intelligence platform that identifies returning web and mobile visitors, including anonymous ones, and returns signals used for fraud prevention and user experience decisions. The product assigns a persistent visitor identifier and accompanying signals such as a suspect score, geolocation, VPN use, browser or device tampering, and incognito mode detection. Identification is offered across browsers as well as iOS and Android applications.

Stated use cases include account takeover prevention (blocking logins that use stolen credentials while recognizing legitimate users), payment fraud reduction, SMS fraud including SMS pumping and SIM swapping, and detection of malicious bots, automation tools and AI agents. The company also positions the technology for reducing friction for trusted users, for example by personalizing experiences and lowering the frequency of 2FA and one-time-password challenges for logged-out users.

Fingerprint maintains an open-source browser fingerprinting library alongside its commercial service, and reports GDPR alignment plus ISO 27001, SOC 2 and AICPA-related compliance.

Business model

Fingerprint sells device identification and fraud-detection capability as an API-based service, with self-service sign-up ("Get Started", API key requests) alongside a sales-led enterprise track.

Traction

The site reports more than 6,000 customer companies, over $1 billion in fraud losses prevented in the trailing 12 months, more than 7 billion unique browsers and mobile devices identified annually, and over 80 million real-time device intelligence API events processed per day. Its open-source library reports 28,000+ GitHub stars and 6.5 million monthly downloads.
