Is There a Trade-Off Between Apples and Mobile Driver's Licenses?

In this episode, I talk to Alain Meier, the Head of Identity at Plaid. While I imagine most readers/listeners are pretty familiar with Plaid’s core capabilities, the company moved into the identity verification space through its acquisition of Meier’s startup Cognito about a year ago.

We had a chance to talk about:

* Alain’s experiencing starting and selling Cognito

* Use cases for identity verification outside of financial services

* Emerging identity tech, like mobile driver’s licenses

* The potential and challenge of “self-sovereign” and decentralized identity

* and more!
