Executive Summary

Sensity sells deepfake detection to buyers who must prove to a third party, often a court, that a piece of media is fake. It layers analysis of pixels, file structures, and voice patterns, then packages the result for court with chain-of-custody controls, multilingual reports, and offline delivery to a USB dongle. It also markets fraud and identity checks to banks and insurers. Press relayed self-reported profitability and tripled revenue on 3.2 million dollars, and in July 2026 the EIC selected it for 4.9 million euros in accelerator funding. The reviewed sources verify no named customer beyond homepage logo labels, and the 98 percent accuracy figure is its own public-dataset benchmark. A buyer can inspect the forensic package but not the commercial claims.
