Mobile logins are hard
Difficult to register/buy services

So a subscriber’s mobile/digital life might look like this, filled with digital app experiences.
We watch videos and listen to music, we talk, we shop, we work…
Apps are mostly single-purpose, designed to give a first-class experience for that one thing, rather than multi-functional websites.
The common thing across all of these apps is the user, but experience-wise there is a lot of friction…
I spent the last year working in Europe. I had finished some meetings early in Pairs and wanted to catch an early train home, so I pulled down the Eurostar app and was confronted with this.
This is very typical onboarding experience…
Here’s a taxi app I used…
the Average user uses nearly 30 apps. Everyone here is above average.
it is a very fragmented experience…
…You see, the digital world has no sense of identity. We need to fill out forms to buy things, we need to register and login to do anything. An average adult has 26 usernames. We need to remember dozens of passwords and answer questions about streets we’ve lived on, our first pet, our favorite food, etc. Nearly everyone gets denied account access because they ‘forgot’. And despite all of this friction and complexity, we are less secure. The top passwords are ‘password’, 12345, qwerty, abc123, etc.
But if we are to solve this for consumers, we need to address the needs of the Enterprises who are providing these Services.
Enterprise customers are worried about finding new users, reducing User Acquisition costs, and generating revenues.
So helping enterprise customers with their concerns will be crucial to getting adoption of any identity solution
As we think about potential sources of Digital Identity, we need to solve for Reach.
Providing a consistent ID source that Enterprise developers can rely on will be crucial.
This is why Apigee has invested in the API Exchange
Exchange solves the fragmentation problem of Identity providers, presenting a unified market to Enterprise Developers, giving them one development effort and one set of business terms to deal with.
