“We needed a vendor with a proven track record of supporting enterprise clients. We found that in Persona.”

Giovanna de Luca
Head of CX innovation & products at Vestiaire Collective

“The number of verified experts has been growing over time as we’ve rolled verification out across more clients and automated the process. Conversions are higher, and the entire process is smoother, and it's due to a collaboration between our two teams.”

Emmanuelle Kozma
Project manager at Dialectica

“You're either compliant or you're not. And it's really difficult to predict what types of new use cases we'll get asked for. Persona’s customizability doesn’t just help us meet the needs we have now, but also helps us future-proof for other use cases we know will eventually come down the line as we expand to other markets.”

Anissa Chen
Senior product manager at Lime

“We use Persona to screen new signups for OpenAI against international sanctions watchlists, with the option to prompt other verifications and manual reviews as needed. Persona is really effective at optimizing the good user experience and creating friction for bad users to prevent them from getting through.”
