## Which one, for what

### Didit (BB)

Good for: A team that wants document, liveness, screening and business registry checks from one API with public prices and no sales step, and an agent that has to set itself up.

Ahead on:
- Reliability, 80 against 62
- Schema & documentation, 88 against 82
- Agent ergonomics, 69 against 43
- Security & auth, 76 against 63
- Payments & pricing, 60 against 40
- Maintenance & community, 82 against 74

Also in its favour:
- Agent-ready, a grade of BB or better
- A hosted endpoint, with nothing to install
- Runs on your own machine
- Free to start without a card

Watch for: Three incidents marked major on status.didit.me from 22 July to 4 September 2026, each a partial outage of the core APIs traced to the primary database

### Veriff (C)

Good for: A team that needs document and selfie verification with public per-verification prices and a trial, and that can run a webhook receiver and HMAC signing.

Watch for: No server-side SDK and no MCP server. Official packages cover only browser and mobile capture

## Verdicts

**Didit.** A self-serve verification API with public per-check prices, key registration by API, scoped keys and a 365-day audit log. The status page shows three incidents marked major between 22 July and 4 September 2026, each a partial outage of the core APIs, and the sub-processor list isn't public.

**Veriff.** Per-verification prices are public from $0.80, with a 15-day trial of 50 sessions and no card. Each endpoint page is Markdown with an OpenAPI 3.0 fragment. There is no server SDK, MCP server or idempotency key, most calls need an HMAC signature, and the status page shows nine incidents between 20 July and 7 October 2026.

## Before you call either

### Didit

1. Register with `POST https://apx.didit.me/auth/v2/programmatic/register/`, then `verify-email` with the emailed 6-character code. Use a real inbox, because reserved test domains return 500.
2. Send the key as `x-api-key` to `https://verification.didit.me/v3/`. The JWT from registration works only on `apx.didit.me`.
3. Create a workflow before `POST /v3/session/`. `workflow_id` is the only required field, and an unfinished session with the same `vendor_data` is returned again.
4. Read results from webhooks and use `GET /v3/session/{sessionId}/decision/` for back-fill. Every per-feature result is a plural array.
5. The MCP server at `https://mcp.didit.me/mcp` takes OAuth sign-in only, never an API key. Approve `didit:verification` alone when the task doesn't change workflows or keys.

### Veriff

1. Take the base URL from the integration's API keys page. Send X-AUTH-CLIENT on every call and store verification.id from POST /v1/sessions
2. Sign POST and PATCH bodies, and the session ID on GET and DELETE, with HMAC-SHA256 in X-HMAC-SIGNATURE. POST /v1/sessions needs no signature
3. Stay under 30 session creations a minute on Self-Serve, 600 on Enterprise. A 429 carries code 1004
4. Don't blindly retry POST /v1/sessions. Each call makes a new session, which is billed on a live integration
5. Poll GET /v1/sessions/{id}/decision until `verification` is not null, or accept webhooks within 5 seconds and treat duplicates as normal
