Trust-ready outreach
A clear trust signal for business development in crowded inboxes
The Verified Professional badge and credential profile help recipients quickly see that they've heard from a real professional—not AI, bots, or low-quality outreach.
The problem
Email is still one of the most important forms of outreach for business development and other professionals. Unfortunately, AI, bots, scammers, and low-quality BDRs are making it increasingly hard for recipients to identify a true professional.
The Verified Professional badge and profile is designed to set you apart with a clear trust signal in ever more crowded inboxes.
Sign up today and we'll build you a high quality professional profile complete with an executive summary, career milestones, press, public appearances, publications, as well as awards and recognitions. We'll notify you when your profile is complete and then you can add The Verified Professional badge to your email signature.
Why Verified Professional works
Research shows that the number one way email recipients assess the trust and quality of a communication is through trust anchors—familiar logos and other visual assets that quickly tell the recipient they've received a genuine message. Recipients are more than two times more likely to perceive an email as legitimate when they see a trust anchor. When an email lacks an immediate, observable anchor, it is instantly categorized as low-value and ignored.

Trust and scope
What verification means—and what it does not
Verification reflects our review of your professional credentials at a point in time. The badge is meant for good-faith, person-to-person business email—not AI-generated outreach, bots, or automated campaigns. It is not a guarantee of future behavior, legal compliance, or deliverability.
What we commit to
Transparent handling of status, credentials, and badge behavior.
Badge content is generated server-side. Applicants can see current status and reviewer notes in the dashboard. Public profiles are read-only for recipients.
FAQ
- What goes into my professional profile?
- We build a credential page with an executive summary, career milestones, press, public appearances, publications, and awards—based on publicly available professional information.
- How do I add the badge to my email signature?
- Most teams use insert image by URL for the badge and a normal hyperlink for your profile. We provide copy-ready URLs in your dashboard.
- When will my profile be ready?
- After you sign up, we build and review your profile. You'll be notified when it's complete and ready to add to your signature.
- What happens if my status changes?
- The same badge URL can show updated artwork when the server renders it; caching in email clients still applies, which we explain in-product.
