Document-based identity verification for regulated onboarding
- From
- On request
- Free plan
- No
The short version
- Only Vite has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Jumio no pricing is published at any tier, so a buyer cannot size the cost without entering a sales process, and benchmarking requires a competitive bid from a vendor that does publish.; Vite does not support Node.js built-in polyfills, requiring manual configuration for CommonJS libraries

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Jumio
- No pricing is published at any tier, so a buyer cannot size the cost without entering a sales process, and benchmarking requires a competitive bid from a vendor that does publish.
- Contracts are structured on annual committed volume, meaning a business whose growth stalls pays for verifications it never consumed and there is usually no rollover.
- AML screening is licensed separately from identity verification, so the quote that wins on document price can be materially more expensive once screening and monitoring are added.
- Pass rates degrade for lower quality documents and older smartphones, and the resulting manual review queue is a staffing cost that does not appear in the vendor quote.
- As an established vendor with a large enterprise base, product changes move at enterprise pace, and buyers wanting rapid iteration on new fraud vectors often find newer entrants ship faster.
Vite
- Does not support Node.js built-in polyfills, requiring manual configuration for CommonJS libraries
- File watching fails on Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 in certain conditions
- Smaller ecosystem and community compared to webpack
- Ampersands in Windows project paths cause module resolution failures

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Jumio: Does Jumio publish prices?
No. Everything is quoted, normally as a per-verification rate against an annual committed volume with overage pricing above it.
Vite: Does Vite support CommonJS dependencies?
Vite automatically converts CommonJS dependencies to ES modules during pre-bundling using esbuild, but it does not support Node.js built-in polyfills. For projects requiring Node builtins, additional configuration may be needed.
SourceJumio: Is biometric data processed in the EU?
Regional processing including EU data residency is offered. Confirm the specific region and retention period in the contract rather than assuming it.
Vite: Can Vite work offline?
Vite requires internet for initial dependency pre-bundling with esbuild. Once dependencies are pre-bundled and cached, development can continue with local file serving, but full offline development is not supported.
SourceJumio: Is AML screening included?
Not by default. Screening and ongoing monitoring are priced separately from document verification.
Vite: What are Vite's system requirements on Windows?
Vite can run on Windows, but WSL2 users may experience file watching issues where Vite cannot detect file changes in certain conditions. Windows users with project paths containing ampersands may encounter module resolution failures with npm.
SourceVite: Does Vite support TypeScript, JSX, and CSS out of the box?
Yes. Vite natively supports TypeScript, JSX, CSS, and WebAssembly without additional configuration needed for basic use.
