T Stamp, which operates as Trust Stamp, helps businesses and governments verify people’s identities when they open accounts or regain access, and detect identity fraud. Its IT2 technology converts biometric and other identifying data into tokens that can be compared without reconstructing the original data. Customers pay for development and implementation work, then pay license fees periodically or according to usage. Professional services, rather than software subscriptions, currently provide most revenue.
The business depends heavily on an unnamed S&P 500 bank, which supplies most revenue. Its agreement provides minimum payments for services and hosting, but the bank can cancel with notice. Another substantial customer, QID Technologies, pays for development and operations services; additional work depends on QID bringing its own customers into use, a process that has been delayed.
Trust Stamp is working toward more recurring software revenue through its Orchestration Layer, which lets customers connect identity-checking services with little or no coding and charges per use. FIS, its only channel partner, integrates the platform into Global KYC for financial institutions. Many enrolled institutions have been slow to start full production, so enrollment does not immediately translate into usage revenue. Privacy laws constrain how Trust Stamp handles identity and biometric data, and it relies on customers to obtain valid consent from the people whose data it processes.
The risk section is the longest, dullest part of the filing. This keeps only what can really hurt you: where it hits, how hard, when it plays out.
Every company claims an edge. Each one is checked against hard numbers like margins and returns: which hold, and which line gives way first.
Trust Stamp’s results depend more on its unnamed S&P 500 bank customer and QID Technologies, which together accounted for approximately 83% of 2025 revenue, than on the listed competitors.
authID competes with Trust Stamp for enterprise spending on privacy-preserving biometric identity checks, authentication and account recovery. Watch adoption of its Proof onboarding product and Verified login and recovery product for signs of demand in those overlapping uses.
Mitek Systems, Inc. competes with Trust Stamp for enterprise and financial-institution budgets for digital identity checks and fraud prevention, rather than directly matching Trust Stamp’s core IT2 technology. Its recurring revenue from identity verification and fraud-prevention software is the relevant line to watch, not mobile check deposits.
Aware Inc competes with Trust Stamp for government and commercial customers buying software to enroll people and authenticate their identities using biometrics. Its remote enrollment and access-control business offers a closer view of that overlap than its law-enforcement and forensic uses.
Rank One Computing Corporation competes with Trust Stamp for government and commercial spending on biometric identity verification, though Trust Stamp says its core IT2 technology has no direct competitors. Watch ROC’s expansion into commercial identity verification and financial-company customers for evidence of competition beyond its government base.
Intellicheck, Inc. competes for the same enterprise identity-fraud budgets as Trust Stamp by checking identity documents, while Trust Stamp provides identity verification and customer due-diligence workflows. Watch Intellicheck’s per-transaction and fixed-price software licensing business for demand for document checks, rather than biometric authentication.
BIO-key International, Inc. competes with Trust Stamp for enterprise and government spending on biometric authentication, multiple login checks and account recovery. Its PortalGuard offering for users at shared workstations or moving between locations is a concrete area to watch: it can verify people without requiring a phone or token.
Okta competes with Trust Stamp in enterprise user authentication and secure customer account access, but its identity platform covers much more. Watch customers adding users and products to Okta and Auth0 subscriptions for demand in identity management, rather than treating all of Okta’s growth as demand for Trust Stamp’s biometric solutions.
Aware Inc earningsAWRE
Aware’s report will show how customers are buying remote biometric enrollment and access control, two uses that overlap closely with Trust Stamp’s business.
Look for customer adoption or revenue from Aware’s remote enrollment and access-control business, if reported. Rising adoption would show that buyers are still paying for these biometric identity workflows, supporting demand in an area shared with Trust Stamp but not proving that Trust Stamp is winning those customers. Flat or weaker adoption would suggest less room in those budgets. The takeaway is whether demand in the overlapping market is growing or tightening.
T Stamp Inc. earningsThis company
Trust Stamp’s report will show whether work delivered for its large bank customer and QID can support revenue and narrow the company’s losses.
Read revenue from the large bank customer alongside QID revenue and the operating loss. If bank revenue holds and QID adds more as implementation progresses, Trust Stamp is retaining its largest customer while turning work for another major customer into delivered services. If bank revenue weakens and QID remains delayed while the operating loss stays heavy, revenue is still concentrated and the business is not yet covering its costs.
