We're on a Mission
k-ID is building the infrastructure layer for an age-adaptive internet.
k-ID is the compliance infrastructure for the age-adaptive internet. The company provides age assurance, regulatory intelligence, and compliance technology to gaming, social media, consumer AI, and other platforms with user-generated content, helping operators maintain compliance across more than 200 jurisdictions worldwide.
Our products include AgeKit and AgeKit+ for age classification and verification, CDK for market-specific compliance logic, and neimo for regulatory intelligence. We also orchestrate third-party age assurance methods, including AgeKey reusable credentials from the OpenAge Initiative.
We exist to help companies answer one foundational question: how old are my users? We answer it against local laws, risk profiles, and regulatory requirements, in a way that is privacy-preserving and globally compliant. That age signal then powers age-appropriate experiences, letting platforms adapt features, permissions, and safeguards for kids, teens, and families in every market they operate in.
Making age-adaptiveness core to digital systems is what safety by design looks like in practice.
