Global crowdfunding platform Indiegogo announced today that it has selected SpecTrust to play a central part in its Trust & Safety efforts to proactively identify fraud and abuse and de-risk the crowdfunding experience for its users. SpecTrust’s unique ability to seamlessly orchestrate third-party risk signals will help Indiegogo scale operations and ultimately reduce fraud on its platform.

“We have a vision for what a robust, extensive anti-fraud system looks like, and orchestration is central to that. As fraud rapidly changes, orchestration helps the Trust & Safety team keep up,” notes Will Haines, vice president of product and customer trust at Indiegogo. “There aren’t many vendors doing trust orchestration, and the ones that do usually focus on a narrow piece of it like identity or payments only. We’re glad SpecTrust is here to help us pull the data and use it without a bunch of additional engineering effort: the ROI was clear.”

SpecTrust’s no-code, intelligent platform deploys at the network layer to instantly protect websites and APIs with the ability to pull data from or push data to third-party vendors. As a full-stack orchestrator, SpecTrust can connect to any third-party vendor with a REST API, including fraud signal providers, ticketing management systems, data visualization tools, and more.

“Our goal is to help our customers by protecting their users,” says SpecTrust COO and co-founder Patrick Chen. “It’s as simple as that.”
