Clearspeed Growth Accelerates as Organizations Turn to Voice to Build Trust Faster

Clearspeed, the global leader in voice-based risk assessment, today announced it was named on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America, now in its 31st year.

Clearspeed’s recognition on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ comes during a phase of rapid expansion across commercial organizations and the public sector. The company’s voice-based risk assessment technology enables organizations to make fast, bias-free decisions that support trust at scale—from fraud detection in insurance to security vetting in defense and government applications. While this is Clearspeed’s first year on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, the company is building on its broader relationship with Deloitte, where the two organizations collaborate through Deloitte’s U.S. Government and Public Services (GPS) practice.

“Earning a place on this year’s Fast 500 is a milestone for the Clearspeed team and our mission,” said Alex Martin, CEO of Clearspeed. “Trust is the foundation of every meaningful interaction—whether between insurers and policyholders, government agencies and personnel, or enterprises and their own teams. We built Clearspeed to fast-track trust in moments that matter most, and this recognition reflects the growing demand for technology that can drive faster, fairer decisions at scale.” Martin recently joined leaders on stage at the Deloitte AI Forum to discuss disruption and innovation in risk assessment—further underscoring shared commitment to advancing human-centered modernization initiatives.

“This year’s rankings highlight both enduring leadership and breakthrough momentum,” said Wolfe Tone, US Deloitte Private & Emerging Client Portfolio leader and partner, Deloitte Tax LLP. “More than half of the winners are prior honorees, yet the majority of the top ten are first-time entrants — demonstrating the staying power of established leaders alongside the accelerating growth of new innovators across key sectors. As in previous years, private companies continue to dominate, underscoring the agility that private enterprises bring to competitive markets, enabling the exceptional triple and quadruple digit growth reflected in these rankings.”

Clearspeed’s breakthrough technology analyzes voice for risk, delivering an efficient, seamless user experience while significantly reducing costs, minimizing fraud, and enhancing security. On average, clients in insurance have used Clearspeed to accelerate decision-making in claims and applications processes, resulting in a 40% rise in immediate settlements and accelerated policy approvals for trustworthy customers, reducing transaction handling time by more than 50%, and lowering overall investigation spend by 65%. Public sector clients see similar results, with agencies reducing vetting cycle times by up to 95%, significantly lowering investigative workload and enabling teams to focus on the highest-priority cases.
