About TrustRadius
In 2012, Vinay Bhagat and Scott Miller founded TrustRadius in Austin, Texas, with a clear mission: to transform how businesses make purchasing decisions through authentic and in-depth user reviews. Recognizing the gap in the market for reliable business software reviews, they set out to create a platform that prioritized transparency and trust.

TrustRadius secured multiple funding rounds, which fueled its expansion and enhanced its platform capabilities.
