Etsy deployed Incode's identity verification platform across its remote hiring process to authenticate candidates from initial application through day-one onboarding.
How Etsy verifies candidates across 100K+ applications with Incode ↗
What happened
- The verification workflow integrates directly into Etsy's Workday deployment and incorporates phone, email, and network risk signals at application, followed by document capture and selfie biometrics before interviews.
- Incode's Deepsight engine screens candidate submissions for deepfakes, AI-generated documents, and synthetic faces, escalating flagged sessions to Incode's fraud team.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Incode is expanding customer-facing IDV into enterprise HR and workforce onboarding workflows integrated with Workday, demonstrating practical adoption of deepfake defense in corporate hiring.
- Etsy operates hubs in Ireland, placing Incode's candidate verification deployment within Signicat's European operating footprint.
