“Can Middesk own the entire business-identity layer — verification, registration, and monitoring — for every regulated financial platform in the US?”
Founded in 2018 as a KYB (Know Your Business) verification platform, Middesk built direct integrations with the IRS and Secretary of State databases across all 50 US states.
