Awards & Recognition

The RegTech100 is an annual list from RegTech Analyst of 100 of the most innovative companies in regulatory technology. For a compliance buyer it is a useful third-party signal that a vendor is investing in new approaches, but it is not a test of data quality or screening accuracy.

The Inc. 5000 is Inc. magazine’s annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States, based on revenue growth over a multi-year period. It shows commercial momentum, which can indicate that customers are adopting a product, but it says nothing directly about how well a screening product performs.

No. Awards and certifications show that a company has been recognized by third parties, but they do not replace testing. The most reliable check is a proof of concept: run the same sample of your own names through each provider and compare match quality, false positives, source traceability and update speed.

Look at where the data comes from and whether each result is traceable to its original source, how quickly critical lists are updated, how the provider handles false positives, and what independent security assurance it holds, such as a SOC 2 report. Ask for references from customers in your sector and test the data yourself.

Vital4 has been named to the Inc. 5000 (2021, 2024 and 2025), the RegTech100 (2021, 2022, 2025 and 2026) and the FinCrimeTech50 (2024 and 2025). It has also been recognized by the Technology Association of Georgia, the Georgia Department of Economic Development’s GLOBE Awards and the Atlanta Business Chronicle’s Pacesetter Awards. Its adverse media technology received a first-action allowance from the USPTO.
