Verify Passkeys Overview

Passkeys, also known as FIDO/WebAuthn, is an industry-standard authentication method that is more seamless and secure than passwords. Many consumer apps are adding support for Passkeys, including Google making Passkeys its default sign-in option.

Verify enables developers to easily add Passkeys into their existing authentication flows, similar to Verify TOTP and Push. The Verify API supports passkey registration, public key storage, and auth flows. On the client-side, developers can optionally embed an open-source library (SDK) that handles interactions with operating systems and customizable UI widgets that maximize conversion.

Twilio is a member of the FIDO alliance that created the Passkeys standard.
