TypingDNA

TypingDNA is a cybersecurity company that provides authentication solutions based on typing biometrics — the way a person types on a keyboard. The company analyzes keystroke dynamics (typing patterns) to verify user identity, offering two primary use cases: two-factor authentication (2FA) without requiring a phone, and continuous authentication during active sessions.

Their core products include:

• A 2FA solution that replaces traditional phone-based second factors (such as SMS OTPs or authenticator apps) by having users type a phrase to verify identity
• A continuous authentication product that passively monitors typing patterns during a session to detect unauthorized access or account takeover in real time

TypingDNA targets organizations looking to reduce friction in authentication workflows while maintaining security. Their technology is delivered as an API and platform that can be integrated into web applications and enterprise systems. The company offers a developer-friendly API, an authenticator product, and a verify product accessible via dedicated subdomains (authenticator.typingdna.com, verify.typingdna.com).

The solution is relevant to use cases such as employee authentication, customer identity verification, and insider threat detection. By using behavioral biometrics tied to typing patterns, the approach does not require additional hardware tokens or mobile devices, positioning it as a frictionless MFA alternative.
