Socure is the AI-powered identity verification and fraud prevention platform behind 19 of the top 20 US banks, alongside government agencies and major fintech, gaming, and e-commerce brands. Its RiskOS platform is built to make identity and risk decisions across the entire customer journey.
Holding that position in a market moving at AI speed comes down to one thing: seeing where fraud is heading, and deciding what to do about it, before everyone else. That is where Liminal comes in, as the market intelligence layer supporting Socure's product and go-to-market decisions.

“We have the fastest growing business in the market, in large part thanks to the work we've done with Liminal to structure our go-to-market and prioritize the right solutions and the right customers. All the intelligence that powered our go-to-market for two years has been driven by the partnership with Liminal.”

The Challenge

Fraud no longer waits for anyone to catch up. AI has lowered the barrier to entry, so unsophisticated actors can run sophisticated attacks and iterate quickly. For a platform serving thousands of customers across financial services, government, gaming, and more, staying ahead is not only a detection problem but also a decision problem: what to build next, which problems to solve, and where to point go-to-market efforts, every quarter, with incomplete information.

The hard part is not effort, it is visibility:

01
Fraud and the competitive field move faster than any team can track by hand
02
A broad platform means constant, high-stakes prioritization across industries and products
03
Building what other providers already offer burns scarce engineering and go-to-market capacity
04
Growth stalls if go-to-market points at the wrong problems or the wrong customers

The Solution

Socure uses Liminal as its market intelligence layer, and not in one corner of the company. It runs across executive strategy, the product, and all of commercial go-to-market.

Where Liminal sits: market signals in, decisions out, across all three orgs.
On the product side, the team uses Liminal to see what peers are building, how capability stacks benchmark, and where real differentiation exists. As Thompson puts it, it is not helpful to the market if 15 providers build the exact same thing, so the team uses that intelligence to find the white space rather than duplicate it. On the commercial side, the focus is buyer demand and customer research, the inputs that show where the biggest problems are and who has them. For two years, that intelligence has shaped how Socure goes to market: the plans, the resource prioritization, and the calls on which problems and customers to focus on. Day to day, teams use the platform to prepare for customer conversations and stay current on market shifts, so commercial shows up informed.
What makes it work is how closely the two teams operate. Socure does not just receive research, it shares its own market view, pressure-tests Liminal's recommendations, and gets an early look at what is coming. Matthew Thompson describes Liminal as "an extension of our team," and that closeness is what turns market intelligence into decisions Socure can act on quickly.

Intelligence as the advantage

For Socure, staying ahead is not only about reacting faster than fraud. It is about deciding better and earlier, where to build, which problems to solve, and which customers to serve. That conviction extends to what comes next: on agentic identity, where the whole market is still in the early innings, the team is already working with Liminal on its strategy.
Thompson's take, executive to executive, is simple:
For anyone trying to move faster in this space, working with Liminal is “an unlock.”
