AUSTIN, Texas: #businessidentity--Mesh, the modern trust layer companies use to vet SMBs and licensed professionals, has been recognized by Inc. for the second year in a row as one of America’s leading B2B powerhouses. The prestigious list honors B2B organizations that help businesses thrive, have a proven track record of helping business clients, and consistently receive top client ratings.

Mesh joins an elite group of solution providers, including Anthropic, Ramp, and Vanta. Past honorees include companies such as Intuit QuickBooks, HubSpot, and Slack.

“My dad owned a small business, and I watched him unfairly miss out on opportunities because bureaus couldn’t verify his business. Mesh was born to fix that,” said Diego Asenjo, founder and CEO of Mesh. “When companies can instantly verify any legitimate business and professional with confidence, they win and grow faster, while unlocking opportunities for millions of SMBs at the heart of the American economy.”

The Trust Layer for Vetting SMBs and Professionals

Verifying the legitimacy, licensing, and compliance of SMBs, sole proprietorships, and professionals is essential for regulatory, risk management, and business reasons. However, these verifications are often riddled with incomplete, stale data from legacy solution providers and data resellers, as well as manual reviews. This creates knowledge gaps and friction for companies and SMBs alike – all while SMB fraud grows and bad actors slip through the cracks.

Mesh solves this problem and serves some of the world’s most sophisticated companies with automated, near-real-time authoritative data, continuous monitoring, and a radically accurate, proprietary knowledge graph on SMBs and licensed professionals. Clients use Mesh to onboard SMBs and professionals faster, mitigate risk at scale, and boost revenue – particularly in regulated, high-trust industries such as construction, contracting, and skilled trades.

"Implementing continuous license monitoring has provided us with valuable insights into our contractor network,” said Paul Borghi, VP of Point-of-Sale at LendKey Technologies. “This has significantly reduced the risk of engaging with unlicensed contractors, thereby further protecting both our customers and lenders."

“The response to verifications by Mesh from our community has been positive,” said John Mannelly, Senior Product Manager at Houzz. “Homeowners see the verification badge, which increases their trust and the likelihood of a connection. Our Verified Pros see higher quality leads and get more business. We’ve created a healthier ecosystem for our customers. Everyone wins here.”

Introducing Mesh for Healthcare License Verification

Mesh’s solution automatically verifies practitioner and facility licenses, checks for adverse and disciplinary actions, confirms eligibility, and continuously monitors for changes that could impact compliance or risk.

By connecting authoritative licensing data with lender and platform workflows, Mesh helps:

• Financial services providers powering POS lending – to reduce and monitor the risk of engaging with unlicensed or non-compliant merchants for regulated services.
• Healthcare practices across hundreds of categories nationwide – including dental, medical, veterinary, and cosmetic – prove that they are properly licensed and eligible to offer financed treatments to their clients.
