KlariVis Earns Third Consecutive Spot on the 2026 Inc. 5000

KlariVis, the leading data intelligence platform built for financial institutions, today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000, the annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America, for the third consecutive year.

The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy.   

“Three consecutive years on this list says as much about the financial institutions we serve as it does about us,” said Kim Snyder, KlariVis CEO& Founder. “Every point of our growth traces back to a financial institution that decided its data should drive decisions, not just fill reports. They trusted a platform built by bankers to know the difference. Our job is to keep earning that trust, because data and AI are shifting from advantage to expectation.” 

KlariVis has also been recognized by Inc. as a Power Partner in consecutive years, on the Inc. Regionals: Mid-Atlantic list, and through Snyder’s inclusion on the Inc. Female Founders 500.
