[Music] v2 verify is a company that provides a technology to positively identify and authenticate a person i always start out with a question have you ever had felt the frustration of a forgotten pin and answered a password or answer to challenge question what we do is we actually resolve that using technology and using your voice as a way to identify you so you do not have to remember pins passwords and answers challenge questions to access data through portals mobile apps you know in a face-to-face environment or

00:00:34,000 --> 00:01:23,000
over the phone we'd say for your bank or your airline every every person's voice is very unique um as you can imagine i mean in your real life if you pick up the phone even without a caller id you generally know who's at the other end of the phone and that's because there are some very unique characteristics about your voice so the hum the human ear can pick up we've actually taken that take that idea that concept and digitizer made into so we actually look at the vocal characteristics of your voice

3
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:53,000
and the uniqueness in that and we use that to be able to identify you now what's unique about v2 verify is that we can do that with a very short sample of random speech and what that means is that we can do that with two seconds of speech with better than 99 accuracy so two seconds of speech to to equate that would be like saying a u.s phone number a 10 digit phone number gives us two seconds of speech saying that many words that that little number of words we can actually be able to confirm your

4
00:01:25,000 --> 00:02:15,000
identity and that's what we do that's an interesting question i come from a banking background in a banking and a payments background and as i looked at the authentication landscape within a bank you know i asked myself this question why when you walk into a branch you've got to actually have a driver's license some formal id you log into their portal or their mobile app you actually got to remember a password when you call them you got to remember answers to some random challenge

5
00:01:53,000 --> 00:02:44,000
questions and when you go to the atm you gotta remember a pin i mean that's a horrible customer experience when you are the customer and you made to actually do all this just to be able to identify you when you already know who you are so the idea behind v2 verify is to find a technology that can actually be able to simplify that authentication process so i didn't need a driving license i didn't need to remember a password i didn't need to remember a pin but the bank can still have a way to be able to identify

6
00:02:18,000 --> 00:03:06,000
me and then transact with me so that's really at the core and you know as a company we always got to start with a why and our why is simplify life and that's basically it is really about simplifying life because you don't have to remember all these ways of being able to get access to data or your data my vision is a v2 verifiable with a global standard for authentication so whether you're actually calling a bank you're going to airline you're transacting with anyone where you're

7
00:02:43,000 --> 00:03:34,000
actually working with any protected data that we become the standard for authentication so you will never have to have that notepad or with passwords written or a spreadsheet with passwords or having to remember random passwords and have to change passwords every 30 days the idea is to simplify life by getting rid of all that and using who you are your voice and we carry that with us all the time we don't have to remember it it's with us and if we can use that as a way to be able to authenticate across all these

8
00:03:08,000 --> 00:04:06,000
channels across all these touch points with different organizations we transact with that will be the perfect world and that's our vision our vision is to actually become that company that provides that service maverick venture fund was came in as a crucial time we were looking for angel investors and working with the fund two ways one is from the investment perspective but the second way also it helped us prepare going through the due diligence and and working on the diligence process helped

9
00:03:37,000 --> 00:04:35,000
us prepare for due diligence we're doing right now with the vc firm so it's really it it it was really twofold the funding money was one thing but also help us prepare some of the documentation to actually get through it due to this process was important i think it's a great idea um coming from an entrepreneurial background i think that students being able to look at other entrepreneurs look at other companies looking at startups specifically and understand the vision understand uh you know how to build a company

10
00:04:08,000 --> 00:05:03,000
because part of that due diligence process is really understanding all that i think it will really set us up for a great future especially in places like omaha where you know we're the city and the state is trying to encourage startups having students coming out with a background or seeing other companies seeing how other people are doing it and hopefully that will encourage some of these students to actually do their own startups and and really make omaha and nebraska really a a kind of a hub for

11
00:04:35,000 --> 00:05:30,000
startups and tech startups because that's where a lot of the values that will then drive up our whole economic situation where you know up you know from everything from the pay rates um it just helps our city and helps our state yeah so you can connect with me on linkedin is probably the best place at damien d rosaro if you search for damian de razaro on linkedin you'll find me or you can connect uh to us through our website it is a v2verify.com that's the letter v the number two verify.com and
