FRISCO, Texas, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Informativ, a provider of fraud prevention, compliance, and credit technology for the automotive and consumer finance industries, has been named the Bronze winner of the 2025 Stevie® Award for Technology Company of the Year. Informativ is backed by Capstreet, a Houston-based lower middle market private equity firm.

A standout achievement fueling this honor was the launch of Total Solution, an all-in-one platform that enables dealers to simultaneously verify identity, control credit processes, and comply with the FTC Safeguards Rule in a single, seamless workflow. This innovation addresses real dealer pain points by replacing manual, fragmented systems with scalable, proactive technology.

“In just a short time, our team has taken Informativ from a collection of great tools to an integrated powerhouse that’s transforming how dealers think about compliance, fraud prevention, and profitability,” said David Carner, CEO of Informativ. “This award is a testament to the work we’re doing to help reduce risk, increase operational efficiency, and help our clients thrive in a heavily regulated market.”

This recognition celebrates Informativ’s innovation and growth since its strategic rebrand in early 2023. By unifying Credit Bureau Connection, Dealer Safeguard Solutions, and CreditDriver under one brand, Informativ streamlined the consumer finance process for thousands of U.S. automotive dealers.

“We’re proud to honor the 2025 Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence winners for their remarkable achievements,” said Maggie Miller, President of the Stevie Awards. “We look forward to celebrating their innovation and impact at the awards ceremony on September 16.”

Informativ provides compliance and fraud prevention by building partnerships with dealers, lenders, credit bureaus, and technology providers. The company's trajectory is defined by its ability to evolve with and ahead of market needs.
