HYPR Affirm review
Configurable ID, selfie, and liveness checks for enterprise workforce assurance.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
HYPR Affirm is a workforce identity verification component of the HYPR platform for security and IT teams. It supports configurable checks for employee onboarding, account recovery, help-desk requests, and other elevated-risk actions. Administrators define verification steps, policies, and outcomes, while requesters complete flows through a URL. The workflow can combine government-issued ID authentication, selfie facial comparison, liveness detection, directory-data validation, location checks, and human or manager attestations.
According to the vendor’s pricing page, HYPR Identity Assurance bundles are billed monthly per user. Identity Assurance Access is $3 per user per month and includes platform identity-verification features. Identity Assurance Plus is $6 per user per month and also includes platform identity-verification features. Identity Assurance Advanced is $9 per user per month and includes identity verification for advanced use cases. The published pricing applies to platform bundles, so buyers should align the required Affirm workflow with the appropriate bundle and scope.
HYPR Affirm connects through hosted URL-based flows, an API, and identity-provider integrations with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Ping Identity, and custom endpoints. Optional checks include AML, OFAC, document-issuer identity records, dual-document verification, motion-based liveness, and directory or HR data. HYPR lists SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and PCI DSS compliance for the platform. It suits mid-market and enterprise teams needing identity assurance after initial onboarding; organizations seeking broad general-purpose KYC coverage or non-cloud deployment should consider a different approach.
