Silicon Valley Access Startup Proxy Raises $13.6 Million

Published Mar 28, 2019 17:15 PM

This mobile-credential based access startup just raised $13.6 million in funding. 

Further, they claim that their technology can free businesses from the physical credential and do it with an atypical blend of security and convenience, delivering the "frictionless workplace." They say they want to "digitize your identity and make it universally accessible, secure and private," as seen in the screenshot from their LinkedIn page [link no longer available] below:

  • What funding have they raised
  • What is the company background
  • How they are looking to grow
  • How their technology works
  • Pricing
  • How they compare/compete
