TypingDNA

TypingDNA provides AI-based typing biometrics authentication, recognizing people by how they type on desktop and mobile keyboards. Its RESTful Authentication API enrolls and verifies typing patterns for fraud prevention, account-sharing detection and passwordless second factors, while Verify 2FA replaces SMS/email one-time codes with typing verification — standalone or as an OIDC authentication method for Okta, Ping Identity and Microsoft Entra ID. TypingDNA is certified for ISO 27001, ISO 27017 and ISO 27018.

TypingDNA publishes 3 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network: Advanced API, Optional API, and Standard API. Tagged areas include Company, Authentication, Biometrics, Typing Biometrics, and Two-Factor Authentication.

TypingDNA’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, and 30 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the AI & Biometrics regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/typingdna: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
