Dajie will lead Keyo’s next phase of growth as the company expands deployments of its fraud-resilient, privacy-first biometric platform across healthcare, retail, hospitality, and the workplace.
“Generative AI has changed the threat landscape; surface-feature biometrics alone are no longer enough,” said Rudy Dajie, CEO of Keyo. “Keyo’s multi-modal palm approach measures what can’t be faked on a screen—subdermal vein patterns paired with surface prints and real-time liveness—to deliver identity that is private, contactless, and dependable at scale.”
Built for real-world use, Keyo’s platform blends high-resolution palm prints with subdermal vein mapping and on-device liveness checks to stop spoofing and reduce fraud, while delivering sub-second matching in high-traffic settings. Businesses use Keyo to unify payments + loyalty, create quick and contactless check-ins, and simplify time & attendance with a privacy-by-design architecture.
