Salary benchmarks
Our take
FCA-regulated Thirdfort is a web and mobile app that combines document scanning, facial recognition technology and Open Banking, to streamline identity and source of funds checks carried out by lawyers, conveyancers, estate agents and financial services organizations.
Thirdfort's technology replaces the inefficient manual methods currently used by these firms, improving identity verification, and reducing the risk of fraud and cybercrime, whilst improving customer experience. It also allows users to onboard their clients quickly, securely and entirely remotely.
As businesses look to accelerate the adoption of secure, remote, user-friendly technology, Thirdfort has found itself able to scale its customer base to over 1000 businesses. Backed by the likes of law firm Mishcon de Reya and HM Land Registry, it is clear the company has earned the trust of the legal and property industries, and has the potential to become a new standard in the sector.
