FOR GOVERNMENT
Increasing access to public benefits while reducing fraud and relieving administrative cost and burden.
FOR LENDERS
Expanding addressable markets for credit products and boosting approval percentages, while allowing lenders to serve underserved clients and communities.
“This is a win-win for the state and for workers. I know for sure that the national and state job market will continue to change in the future. Equipped with solutions like the Income Passport, state can stay ahead of worker’s needs and better manage government resources, both in times of growth and in times of crisis.”
Secretary Fitzgerald Washington
Secretary of the Alabama Department of Labor, Board of Directors, National Association of State Workforce Agencies
"This is about harnessing the potential of technology to expand economic opportunity for a segment of the population that is exploding but often struggles to access credit. It reflects the fact that the way financial institutions verify income history is out of step with the way that a growing number of

Derrick Bailey
President of Telhio Credit Union
“Claimants that would normally wait weeks or months, are getting paid in days or even hours… Steady’s Income Verification is a great gatekeeper and great validator. Steady allows rapid decisioning for people who deserve it, and they are a deterrent to fraud. The old way was a sieve for fraud.”
Richard Pierce
Louisiana Workforce Commission, State Level Employee
“The best way to build tools that support workers is to include those workers in the development process. By listening to the insights, perspectives, and recommendations of workers, Steady has created a tool that will help millions of people take control of their own data and access critical benefits to support themselves and their families.”
Angela Vogel
Union Leader, Philadelphia’s Drivers Union
“The past year has revealed the profound misalignment between the realities of the labor market, and outdated infrastructure that the government uses to verify benefits eligibility. By putting data in the hands of workers, we can modernize the process to boost payment accuracy and better serve a growing and critical segment of the economy.”
