# Fingerprint > Fingerprint is a device intelligence and fraud prevention platform that identifies web and mobile visitors with industry-leading accuracy — even anonymous ones. It assigns a persistent visitor ID to browsers and devices using 100+ signals, and provides real-time risk signals (Smart Signals) to help fraud teams stop bad actors without friction for good users. Fingerprint was founded by Dan Pinto and Valentin Vasilyev. It evolved from the open-source FingerprintJS project (2012) and is now a commercial SaaS platform headquartered in Chicago, IL with a remote-first global team. It is trusted by 6,000+ companies and has identified over 7 billion unique browsers and devices annually. Fingerprint does NOT collect personal data (names, emails, passwords), does NOT identify individual people, does NOT sell or share user data with third parties, and does NOT replace authentication, KYC, or payment systems. It complements them. ## Key pages - [Homepage](https://fingerprint.com/): Platform overview, accuracy demo, customer stats - [AI Info Page](https://fingerprint.com/blog/ai-info-page/): Official structured information about Fingerprint for AI assistants and LLMs -
