identity for the AI era
Fraud-stack ROI calculator

What is your identity stack really costing you?

Pick your industry and the vendors you run today. See what one Helix check replaces, the cost you'd save — and, where a mandatory check isn't required, the signups you'd recover.

Your setup

New users / signups verified per month.
Logins, withdrawals, high-risk actions re-verified after signup.

Your current vendors

Untick a layer you don't use. Prices auto-fill from each vendor's published rate — edit any figure to match your contract.

How to read this
Helix sorts every layer of your stack into three buckets:
Replace — Helix does the job of this tool, so its cost goes to zero (SMS OTP, phone & device checks used purely for identity, facial-age estimation).
Keep — stays in place. Either legally required (KYC / AML in regulated industries) or a fraud-scoring layer Helix doesn't do (device/transaction risk in payments). These costs remain in the "With Helix" column.
Recover — where the removed check is high-friction and not legally required, dropping it recovers signups that bounce today. That conversion upside is shown separately, and only where it's legitimate (never in fintech or betting, where KYC is mandatory).

Cost math: per verification, current = sum of ticked layers; Helix = $0.02 + $0.10 age (only when not already covered by a kept KYC) + kept layers. Re-checks: your step-up method vs Helix $0.01. Everything is editable.
