The short version

  • Each has a real cost: GNAT Pro no pricing published on website; requires contacting AdaCore directly for quotes; Socure coverage and accuracy depend on US consumer data density, so international expansion means adding a second, document-based vendor rather than scaling the same contract.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

GNAT Pro

  • No pricing published on website; requires contacting AdaCore directly for quotes
  • Vendor indicates per-user, per-year subscription model but does not disclose specific costs

Socure

  • Coverage and accuracy depend on US consumer data density, so international expansion means adding a second, document-based vendor rather than scaling the same contract.
  • Data-only verification performs worst on thin-file populations, and young, recently arrived or credit-invisible applicants are declined at higher rates, which creates a fair lending exposure a bank must monitor.
  • Pricing is per decision with an annual commitment and is not published, so the cost of a traffic spike or a bot attack on your signup flow lands on your bill.
  • Modules for verification, fraud and compliance are licensed separately, so the shortlist price rarely matches the final contract once screening and document fallback are added.
  • A probabilistic score is harder to defend to an examiner than a documented identification procedure, so US institutions still have to map the score to explicit Customer Identification Programme controls themselves.

GNAT Pro pricing is not published on the website. Customers must request a pricing quote by contacting AdaCore directly or speaking with a GNAT Pro expert.

GNAT Pro is sold on a per-user, per-year basis with no license locks. Customers can request pricing for their specific needs.

Socure: Is pricing published?

No. It is quoted per decision against an annual volume commitment.
