Problem

With California's age verification law taking effect, OS and app developers must adopt age verification SDKs, but each SDK differs in verification success rate, response speed, and personal data handling practices. Pre-adoption comparison testing costs an average of 2-3 weeks and approximately 5 million KRW (~$3,750) in developer labor per person. When Korean app developers prepare for global launch, they must select SDKs that simultaneously comply with both US and Korean regulations, but the lack of standardized benchmarks leads to repeated trial and error.

Solution

The service evaluates major age verification SDKs (ID.me, Yoti, Korean identity verification APIs, etc.) through automated test scenarios, providing reports on verification success rates, response speeds, and GDPR/privacy law compliance. Developers can compare SDK scores on a dashboard and select the optimal SDK for their app.

Target: CTOs and backend development leads at Korean mobile app development companies with 5-30 employees preparing for global launch
Revenue Model: SaaS monthly subscription at 49,000 KRW/project (~$37/month); 20% discount for annual billing; Premium (custom test scenarios) at 99,000 KRW/project (~$75/month)
Ecosystem Role: Supplier
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
