NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 25, 2025--
In an era of eroding trust fueled by AI-generated impersonations, Outtake – the leader in AI-driven digital trust enablement – is redefining email security with the launch of Outtake Verify for Email, a first-of-its-kind browser extension that deterministically authenticates enterprise communications via World ID or passkeys. With business email compromise costing organizations at least $2.8 billion in 2024 ( FBI ) and phishing incidents averaging $4.9 million per breach ( IBM ), the new solution offers companies a powerful defense against rising financial and reputational risk.

"Email was built in the 1970s for messaging, not security," said Alex Arjun Dhillon, CEO of Outtake. "Unlike probabilistic solutions that guess whether an email is legitimate with models that require frequent re-training, Verify utilizes advances in authentication and proof of human technologies to provide sender identity with cryptographic certainty – proving who pressed send on what device."
“In the age of AI, proof of human technology – which verifies someone is a unique person – is becoming increasingly important not only online, but especiallyin the workplace to help businesses maintain trustin security while accelerating business operations,” said Ajay Patel, Head of World ID at Tools for Humanity, a contributor to World. “We are happy to collaborate with Outtake to enhance existing security infrastructures, in this case for email, by adding the critical capability to distinguish humans from AI.”
Fortifying Email with Verify
Outtake Verify’s proprietary security technology builds on the World ID protocol and FIDO passkey authentication to cryptographically confirm who pressed send on an email, enhancing existing machine-learning-based security solutions and email protocols like DMARC. By providing human and device-level authentication, Outtake Verify for Email enables faster and higher trust decisions on critical communications like vendor payments, contract approvals, and executive directives – areas where uncertainty causes costly delays and social engineering risk.
As AI agents increasingly join enterprise workflows, distinguishing human-created vs. AI-generated emails is essential. Equally, authenticating communications from trusted AI agents will be paramount.
How It Works
Verify deploys via the Chrome management console, integrates with existing enterprise Single-Sign-On (SSO), requires no MX changes, and works with Gmail and Superhuman; Outlook support is slated for Q4 2025. Starting today, early enterprise adopters can unlock complimentary access to Outtake Verify for Email. Read about initial results here.
Looking ahead, Outtake Verify plans to bring cryptographic identity verification to employee onboarding, additional workplace communications, and AI agent authentication across enterprise workflows.
