Today is an exciting day for the Incognia engineering team as Incognia announces the release of its free Developer Edition.

We invite you to check out our Developer Portal, documentation, reference implementations, and most importantly we encourage you to integrate and test the SDK and APIs (you just need to signup here).

Since launching Incognia’s location identity solution for mobile 10 months ago our SDK has been installed in millions of devices enabling fintech and m-commerce companies to fight back against fraud without adding friction to the user experience. Now with the Developer Edition, Incognia is making its SDK and APIs available free for any size company to leverage location behavior and device intelligence to detect fraudulent logins and transactions on their mobile apps.

The Developer Edition includes not only free use of the SDK and APIs but also a step-by-step integration wizard to make the installation super simple and also reference implementations.

Why are we excited about this new Developer Edition?

With the new Developer Edition of Incognia we are excited to be removing barriers for mobile app developers to get started. We have included thousands of free API requests with the free Developer Edition to enable any size company to launch and grow their mobile app with security built-in from day one.

We are looking forward to your feedback and thoughts on how to use location identity to build a frictionless authentication experience. (you just need to signup here and then you’re ready to go).

What to expect next from Incognia?

Over the next few weeks and months, we will be publishing details of the underlying technology used in the development of our solution. For many app developers, the use of location behavior and device intelligence is new. While our goal with the Developer Edition is to make your development job easier we also want to give you the background knowledge to understand the underlying design. We are planning to cover topics such as:

  • Challenges running a large scale service
  • Machine learning on production
  • Software engineering best-practices
  • How to fight mobile fraud
  • Location identity on practice
  • Privacy by design techniques

Please reach out with any and all feedback, and topics you would be interested in reading more about. Happy coding!
