Beyond simple lookups. Inject real-time, high-precision phone identity signals directly into your fraud and compliance workflows—without rebuilding your stack. Built for Alloy, Sardine, and Unit21 environments.
Legacy providers often rely on outdated datasets. Espy gives you live carrier and porting signals so your workflows act on what’s true right now.
Go beyond a basic owner match. Bring in carrier detail, line-type intelligence, social presence indicators, and reputation context the bigger providers often miss.
Higher match accuracy means fewer legitimate users blocked, fewer unnecessary reviews, and better conversion across onboarding flows.
Designed for product teams, risk engines, and orchestration workflows.

ESPY is designed to support partners serving compliance-sensitive clients that need reliable signals without adding friction to onboarding and review workflows.
When platforms rely on stale or shallow phone data, fraud can slip through and legitimate users can get blocked. ESPY is built to give orchestration teams fresher, more actionable signals at the point of decision.
