“Can a healthcare-specific credentialing platform become the compliance system of record for every clinical hiring decision across the NHS and US health systems?”
Founded 2016 as Dr Focused, rebranded to Credentially (legal entity Appraise Me Limited) targeting healthcare onboarding automation. Originally UK/NHS-focused (DBS, NMC, GMC, HCPC checks); pivoted upmarket into US healthcare in recent years, adding SAM/OIG exclusion checks, state licensure and HIPAA-aligned data residency. Not an embedded-finance company — a vertical SaaS compliance platform with a very light payments footprint (Stripe + GoCardless for its own subscription billing only).
Credentially processes payments through Stripe and GoCardless.
Credentially is founded in 2016 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom.
