Our take
AuditBoard provides risk and compliance software for large businesses. The company's founders spent years working at the Big Four and other global enterprises, and realised that many audit activities were still taking place in Excel sheets, or using legacy software like IBM's OpenPages, which haven't kept up to date with the latest reporting requirements.
The result was an end-to-end platform for managing risk, which helps enterprises to streamline internal audit, SOX compliance, controls management, risk management, and security compliance. The top-rated cloud-based platform has won numerous awards, with the company being consistently named the market leader in Audit Management.
The company's current client list of 2000+ includes Boeing, Activision, and Priceline, and includes almost half of the Fortune 500 companies. It continues to experience rapid customer growth, with revenues in excess of $100 million with a 60% annual growth rate. The company has been ranked as one of the fastest-growing tech companies in North America for the last three years in a row, and was acquired by private equity firm Hg in 2024 for a reported $3 billion.
