"1-CLICK” ZERO TRUST IDENTITY iVALT allows for “1-Click” proof of IDENTITY. A registered user of iVALT can verify their IDENTITY to any other iVALT user (using either their mobile app or a webpage request). This real time verification eliminates DEEPFAKE voice frauds on incoming calls (“prove your IDENTITY”) and enables callers to proactively identify themselves (“please let me identify myself before we talk”). If callers do not have iVALT, they can quickly register with their mobile number and valid email address to prove their IDENTITY to their intended call recipient. iVALT is integrated with leading Identity and Access Management technology providers as an alternative to the inconvenience of 2FA digits that must be manually typed to complete existing logins. It can also be used to verify identity for WordPress websites via the iVALT WordPress plugin. Both of these applications enable a simple user experience that provides much higher security and safety. Geofencing and time windowing are features that iVALT can provide to users that opt-in for this paid capability. By using these features, users can control any authentications to specific locations and time intervals. This makes IDENTITY much stronger and difficult to hack, especially when combined with verifying device ID and biometrics at the same time. This app can also be used with iVALT’s partners for IDENTITY verification for access to IOT devices and for physical access (locks and with keypads and keycards).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: iVALT at 100% against Phantom's 33%. iVALT also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). Phantom's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (8.1 vs 15.6). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
