- World ID for Zoom is now listed in the Zoom Marketplace and available to Zoom enterprise customers worldwide as of October 18, 2026
- The integration matches three images, an Orb-verified photo, a liveness selfie from the World ID app, and a live Zoom video frame, before displaying a Human Badge on a participant’s tile
- Tools for Humanity, World’s main development company, has joined Zoom’s ISV Exchange Program, letting business customers host physical Orbs in their own offices
World announced on October 18, 2026 that its “Proof of Human” verification technology is now generally available through the Zoom Marketplace, following an earlier preview offered to a smaller group of customers earlier in 2026. The integration lets Zoom enterprise customers confirm that the people appearing on their video calls are real, verified humans rather than AI-generated likenesses or deepfaked impersonators.
The underlying mechanism relies on matching three separate images against each other before a call participant can display a Human Badge on their video tile: a cryptographically signed photo captured during a one-time Orb verification, a liveness selfie taken through the World ID mobile app, and a live frame pulled from the actual Zoom video call in progress. World says all three images must match for the badge to appear, and that the system analyzes video frames only, with no access to call audio or meeting transcripts, pulling the live frame through Zoom’s Realtime Media Streams feature.
As part of the rollout, Tools for Humanity, the main development company behind World, has joined Zoom’s ISV Exchange Program, a status that lets business customers host their own physical Orb devices on-site at their offices rather than relying solely on public Orb locations. That arrangement is aimed at making it easier for large organizations to get employees or partners verified without having to travel to a separate verification location first.
World pointed to a 2025 Gartner survey finding that 62 percent of cybersecurity leaders said their organization had faced a deepfake attack within the prior year, framing that figure as evidence of how quickly video-based impersonation has become a mainstream corporate security concern rather than a rare edge case. The company named banking and financial services, technology, professional services, healthcare, government and academia as the sectors it expects to adopt the Zoom integration first.
The launch sits alongside a separate announcement World made the same day introducing a parallel identity suite aimed specifically at banks and fintech companies, both unveiled around Money20/20 in Las Vegas, underscoring that the company is pushing its identity-verification infrastructure into enterprise communication and financial services simultaneously rather than treating them as separate product lines. The announcement, published on World’s own blog, did not disclose pricing for the Zoom integration or specify how many organizations had already signed up ahead of the public listing.
