Vonage Q4 2025 Recap: Highlights and Insights
Last quarter doubled down on the fundamentals you count on every day. From stronger identity signals and AI-ready workflows to unified reporting and Video API improvements, the team shipped updates that make building easier and more reliable. Revisit how the updates help you build with confidence on Vonage.
Identity Insights API Now Generally Available
Your feedback was invaluable to refine real-time, production-ready phone number intelligence for identity verification, fraud prevention, and data enrichment. And now it’s all backed by enterprise-grade support.
Introducing Silent Authentication Advanced in the Verify API
The next evolution of authentication brings seamless, device-based verification beyond cellular networks to Wi-Fi and VPN. U.S. developers can be among the first to test this next-gen authentication flow.
TUTORIALS and INSPIRATION
