## 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 50
- Schema & documentation, 88 against 81
- Security & auth, 76 against 40
- Payments & pricing, 60 against 30
- Maintenance & community, 82 against 60

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

### Vouched (C)

Good for: US businesses in healthcare, finance, automotive and gig work that want document and selfie checks with published prices.

Ahead on:
- Transparency & trust, 74 against 63

Watch for: Rate limits are stated without a number

## 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.

**Vouched.** Vouched publishes per-transaction prices from $0.75 with a $300 monthly minimum and a 14-day trial, and its docs carry llms.txt, OpenAPI fragments and filterable job search. Rate limits have no number, there is no idempotency key, server SDK or security.txt, and the API status page shows a 70-minute rise in rejections on 1 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.

### Vouched

1. Use the private key in `X-API-Key` against verify.vouched.id or verify.eu.vouched.id, matching the account's region
2. Check Find Jobs before resubmitting. There is no idempotency key and each job is billed
3. Pass `withPhotos=false` and select `fields` on Find Jobs to keep responses small
4. In a test account, use the name test pass for a clean result and any other name for a failure
5. Back off on 429. All endpoints share one limit and no figure is published
