The Verified Network
The internet is full of fake profiles, AI-generated content, and people who aren't who they claim to be. Is Real is different. Every person is verified with a government-issued ID. No bots. No fakes. No exceptions.
Real Identity
Verify once with your government-issued ID. Your legal name and photo become your anchor — the foundation every interaction on Is Real is built on. No anonymity. No deception.
Two Profiles, One You
A personal profile for your community and a professional profile for your career. Both anchored to your verified identity. Be yourself in both worlds, without mixing them.
SpeakID Verified Calls
Prove who you are before making a call. Send a verification link, they see your verified identity, and a spoken challenge confirms it's really you.
What is SpeakID?
The phone is the least trusted communication channel in America. Unknown numbers, spoofed area codes, AI voice clones — the scammers ruined it for everyone.
SpeakID by Is Real gives everyone their phone back. Making a sensitive phone call? Prove who you are with your legal name, photo, and a government-issued ID. Received a suspicious text? Ask for SpeakID. Verified in seconds — or not — and you have your answer.
You start a verification
Enter the number you're calling and send them a text with your verified profile link.
They see who's calling
The recipient sees a preview of your verified profile — name, photo, and the number you're calling from. They tap the link to confirm it's real.
They generate a challenge
Once on the call, the recipient generates a unique challenge that appears on both screens. You read it aloud.
Identity confirmed
The recipient confirms it matches. They know your call is real.
Anyone can verify a caller — no app, no account needed. But when both parties are on Is Real, both sides know exactly who's on the other end.
SpeakID is patent pending.
A Network Built on Truth
Is Real is more than call verification. We're building the first platform where every person, every business, and every opinion is real. Verified employment. Verified companies. Authentic community. A place where you can trust what you read, who you're talking to, and what businesses are telling you.
We're starting with identity and calls. Everything else follows.

Why Is Real Exists
I took a job I found through someone I trusted on LinkedIn, but skipped my usual research. If he vouched for it, I figured that was enough. Well, it wasn't. What I discovered after accepting the position cost me my livelihood, and what happened after cost me even more. Blocks, shadow-banning, networking platforms treating me like a bot.
The deeper I looked, the worse it got. Fake profiles. Fake job listings harvesting resumes. Messages from “Kevin O'Leary” that looked completely legitimate, pushing crypto. Elderly Americans like my own parents losing their savings to AI voice scams. Complex algorithms deciding what you see and don't see. Foreign influence shaping conversations Americans think are organic. Platforms censoring real people for saying what they believe. Ordinary people trying to connect, work, and build a life, only to be deceived at every turn by bad actors who don't share their values and don't have their best interests at heart.
I love this country and the good people who call America home. That's what drove me to speak up when I saw something wrong, and it's what drove me to build this platform for us when I realized the tools to fix it didn't exist. Trust used to be our default in America. Is Real is how we get it back. May God Bless you and our Republic. 🇺🇸
