<a href="https://www.vetty.co" style="color: #C0392B; text-decoration: underline;">Vetty</a> (Austin, Texas; the one-stop shop hiring acceleration platform; CEO Jason Putnam), has been named the winner of a <strong style="color: #96281B;">Bronze Stevie® Award</strong> in the <strong style="color: #96281B;">Best Use of Technology in Human Resources</strong> category at <strong style="color: #96281B;">The 24th Annual American Business Awards®</strong>. The Stevie Awards are among the world's premier business awards programmes — receiving more than 12,000 entries each year from organisations in more than 70 nations. The judges recognised Vetty for its continued growth, the introduction of several new product features and updates, and the company's ongoing commitment to customer service — specifically calling out Vetty as more of a <strong style="color: #96281B;">strategic partner</strong> to its clients than a traditional vendor. The recognition comes alongside strong commercial momentum: Vetty has delivered an <strong style="color: #96281B;">18.3% year-over-year increase in revenue</strong> under the leadership of Jason Putnam, who joined the company in February 2025.

"I'm incredibly proud of everything we've accomplished this past year, and winning this Stevie is further validation of our efforts. It reflects our relentless focus and the difference we make for our customers and tells me we're on the right path."

Vetty describes itself as the <strong style="color: #96281B;">one-stop shop hiring acceleration platform</strong> — built to consolidate the fragmented tools, workflows, and data sources that slow down the hiring and onboarding process for organisations managing high volumes of new hires. By bringing background checks, licensing verifications, onboarding paperwork, and compliance workflows into a single integrated platform, Vetty eliminates the coordination overhead that forces HR teams to toggle between multiple vendors, manually chase candidates, and reconcile data across disconnected systems. The Stevie judges' recognition of Vetty as a strategic partner rather than a traditional vendor reflects a key differentiator in how Vetty approaches client relationships: proactive customer success, hands-on implementation support, and continuous product iteration in response to client feedback — behaviours more commonly associated with consulting partners than with HR technology vendors. The 18.3% revenue growth under Jason Putnam's leadership reflects market demand for consolidated, accelerated hiring infrastructure as organisations face continued pressure to reduce time-to-hire, improve candidate experience, and maintain compliance across an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.

Vetty (Austin, Texas; CEO Jason Putnam — joined February 2025; one-stop shop hiring acceleration platform) has won a Bronze Stevie® Award in the Best Use of Technology in Human Resources category — announced 27 April 2026. Awarded at The 24th Annual American Business Awards®. The Stevie Awards: world's premier business awards; 12,000+ entries/year from 70+ nations; nine programmes. Winners to be celebrated in New York City on 9 June 2026.

</li>

Why Vetty won — three judge criteria: (1) Continued growth — Vetty has delivered 18.3% year-over-year revenue growth under Jason Putnam (February 2025 to present). (2) New product features and updates — the platform introduced several new capabilities over the past year, reflecting a continuous innovation cadence. (3) Commitment to customer service — judges specifically identified Vetty as more of a strategic partner to clients than a traditional vendor — a distinction that signals depth of client relationship, proactive support, and outcome-orientation beyond standard SaaS customer success.

</li>

Vetty platform: the one-stop shop hiring acceleration platform — consolidates background checks, licensing verifications, onboarding paperwork, and compliance workflows into a single integrated platform. Eliminates coordination overhead from toggling between multiple vendors, manually chasing candidates, and reconciling data across disconnected systems. Purpose-built for organisations managing high-volume hiring where speed, compliance accuracy, and candidate experience are simultaneously critical.

</li>

The "strategic partner, not vendor" distinction: the Stevie judges' framing captures what differentiates Vetty in a competitive HR tech market — where many platforms offer equivalent feature sets but differ significantly in how they support clients through implementation, adoption, and ongoing optimisation. In HR technology, where configuration complexity and change management are often the primary barriers to ROI realisation, the quality of the vendor relationship frequently determines outcomes more than the features themselves. Vetty's 18.3% revenue growth alongside this recognition suggests both product and service are resonating.

</li>

Market context: the hiring acceleration market is expanding as organisations face continued pressure on three simultaneous dimensions — speed (time-to-hire as a competitive differentiator for talent acquisition), compliance (background check, licensing, and onboarding regulatory requirements growing across US states and sectors), and experience (candidate drop-off during lengthy onboarding processes directly affecting offer acceptance rates). Platforms that consolidate these workflows into a single, accelerated experience — as Vetty does — are positioned to capture demand from organisations that have historically managed these requirements through a patchwork of point solutions. The Stevie recognition validates Vetty's execution in a crowded field that includes Checkr, Sterling, HireRight, Checkmate, and other background verification and onboarding technology providers.
