Numeracle has received a $28 million growth investment led by Edison Partners to accelerate the development of its identity management platform. The McLean-based firm plans to use the capital to expand its verification services into new industries and geographic regions.

Why it matters

As 69% of U.S. consumers report missing or declining calls due to caller ID trust issues, the company seeks to scale its technology that prevents mislabeling. This funding will support the extension of these verification tools into messaging and rich communications channels.

Numeracle currently verifies the identities of more than 4,000 enterprise brands to ensure their calls are properly labeled. The firm has seen its annualized revenue run rate climb 70% over the past 16 months.
