> Specifically for Stripe, I trust them. So if I see that a new start-up is using them rather than rolling their own solution, that increases my trust

Note that Stripe allows their customers access to the "captured images of the ID document, selfies, extracted data from the ID document, keyed-in information"[1]. So you still have to trust any company using Stripe not to download, store, and later leak your personal information, and you also have to trust them not to let their Stripe API token be compromised and exploited by identity thieves.
