After resigning from his post as Chief Executive Officer of Infospace, former Microsoft executive Naveen Jain and several associates established Intelius Inc at the start of 2003. Naveen Jain is also Intelius’ current CEO.
Initially, Intelius’ array of services focused solely on information commerce, offering individuals and businesses access to information for purposes such as background checks, identity verification, and medical and health history.
Intelius Inc aims to give small and big companies access to relevant details that allow them to make intelligent business decisions and map out effective business strategies. The company does this by merging accessible information found in public records, telephone directories, and other sources of information.
However, Intelius’ services are not limited to business. They also give their clients access to the company’s database so they can scan for information about individuals. This way, Intelius helps their clients find out who among these people are dangerous and who are not.
Aside from giving their clients access to information relevant to their companies’ success, Intelius expanded its range of services by providing anti-identity theft services.
As a company committed to corporate social responsibility, Intelius is active in helping the community in every way possible. During the identity theft threat where the identities of millions of American military veterans were in danger, Intelius offered a huge discount on their anti-identity theft products and services. According to Intelius, it was the company’s means of saluting men and women who served the United States of America.
Last 2007, Intelius reached a notable milestone as the company celebrated its fourth anniversary by serving its four millionth unique customer. This achievement is a testament of the company’s contribution and significance to the business and corporate industries.
Today, Intelius continues to provide small businesses and mega corporations the information and details they need to propel forward. It also gives individuals a great sense of security.
