2025: Review of Parakeet's Journey in the World of Industrial Risk 🦜

As we close the final chapter of 2025, we’re taking a moment to reflect on an incredible year of growth, sharper strategic focus, and hard-earned learning—while staying committed to building the future of Third Party Risk Management for industrial teams.

This year, Parakeet Risk moved faster by going deeper: turning “compliance chaos” into a single system of action that helps teams verify contractor requirements, automate back-office follow-ups, and monitor credentials in real time. None of it would have been possible without the customers, partners, and teammates who chose courage over comfort, depth over breadth, and people over everything else.

We doubled down on eliminating regulatory complexity with automation and continuous verification, so industrial operators can focus on risk management—not paperwork.​

2025 by the Numbers: Measuring What Matters 🎉

In the world of industrial risk, numbers are usually warnings—emissions limits, audit scores, potential fines. But looking back at 2025, our numbers tell a different, much warmer story. They represent a rapidly growing safety community — expert choosing safer, simpler, more intuitive ways to navigate the compliance jungle.

This year brought extraordinary growth and focus across every dimension of Parakeet Risk. Here are a few moments worth celebrating:

🌟  Partnership Focus: 300% Growth in Customers

We tripled our customer base this year. But to us, this isn't only a sales metric—it’s also the trust indicator. It means three times as many:

• Manufacturers, energy producers, and logistics leaders chose clarity over chaos.

• Compliance professionals woke up feeling a little less overwhelmed.

• Organizations found a partner who actually understands that managing third-party risk can become their strategic imperative.

🌟  20 New Platform Upgrades, One Goal: Eliminating the Complexity of Industrial Risk

This year, we released 20 major new features. We shipped consistently, listening to our customers and building solutions that solve their most pressing challenges in risk management. Each release represents a clear commitment to making risk and compliance easier in highly regulated operations. Behind every upgrade is a real story: hours of brainstorming, customer calls that started with “I wish this could…,” and focused engineering sprints that turned those wishes into working product. Most importantly, every platform improvement was a direct answer to what our Partners asked for—so they can navigate third-party risk with more clarity, speed, and confidence.

🌟 400% Growth: Teamwork has Become our Secret Weapon

We welcomed exceptional new talent this year—quintupling our team and building a world-class organization focused on transforming how companies manage third-party risk. Engineers, designers,, content & social specialists brought fresh perspective and energy.

Strategic Evolution: The Pivot That Defined Us 🎯

Here's the thing about 2025: we made a decision that looked like we were narrowing our focus, but it actually expanded our impact.

We doubled down on Third Party Risk Management and stepped away from broader compliance features. And no, this wasn't a retreat. This was us choosing to become the absolute best at solving the hardest problem instead of being mediocre at many things.

Why It Mattered?

In a world that constantly pushes you to do more, be more, and chase more, we chose to go deeper. Parakeet Risk is the team that truly understands the nuances, the edge cases, the midnight panic when a critical vendor fails an audit.

Risk Management is our superpower.

And our customers felt the difference. They trusted us with their toughest challenges because we proved we are becoming their partners in navigating the compliance jungle.

Risk Management Is Still Finding Its Way 🌱

Here's the humbling truth: we're all still learning. And instead of pretending we have all the answers, we chose to embrace the learning journey with our customers.

This humility became our strength. It made us better listeners. It made us more curious. It made us partners instead of vendors.
