At ThruHQ, we don’t just list companies—we curate the real data. Here you will not see any low rating or ranking company, because it’s only for top-tier providers, and for industry leaders.

Our mission is to provide businesses with a trusted, data-driven platform that helps you find the right partners with confidence. To achieve this, we’ve developed a detailed validation process that ensures every listed company meets high standards of credibility, expertise, and reliability.

This document outlines the validation standards we use to evaluate and approve companies before they are added to ThruHQ.



1. Core Validation Principles

ThruHQ’s validation framework is built on three key principles:

  • Authenticity – Every listed company must be a legally registered business with verifiable operations.
  • Reputation – Companies must demonstrate a track record of delivering high-quality services to clients.
  • Transparency – The information provided must be accurate, up-to-date, and publicly verifiable.

These principles guide our validation process to ensure that businesses using ThruHQ can trust the accuracy and reliability of our listings.


2. Company Eligibility Criteria

To be considered for listing on ThruHQ, a company must meet the following eligibility criteria:

2.1 Legal & Business Registration

  • The company must be legally registered in its country of operation.
  • Sole proprietorships, partnerships, and corporations are eligible, but freelancers and unregistered businesses are not.

2.2 Industry Relevance

  • The company must operate within one of ThruHQ’s defined business categories, such as tech services, consulting, or business solutions.
  • If a company offers multiple services, it must have a proven track record in at least one core category.

2.3 Professional Online Presence

  • The company must have an official website with clear details about its services, team, and contact information.
  • A professional LinkedIn page or business profile must be available for verification.
  • The company’s domain and email addresses should be business-grade (not personal emails like Gmail or Yahoo).

2.4 Operational History

  • The company must have been operational for at least two years to demonstrate stability.
  • Newly established businesses may qualify if they have high-profile clients or industry recognition.


3. Service & Performance Standards

We evaluate companies based on their service quality, track record, and client relationships.

3.1 Proven Client Work

  • Work history should be publicly documented (on the company’s website, LinkedIn, or other online and public sources).

3.2 Industry Recognition & Certifications

  • If applicable, the company should hold industry certifications (e.g., ISO, Google Partner, AWS Certified, etc.).
  • Membership in professional organizations or trade associations is a plus.
  • Awards, press mentions, or industry rankings add further credibility.

3.3 Transparent Pricing & Contracts

  • Companies should provide clear, structured service offerings with defined pricing models.
  • Custom pricing is acceptable, but the company must outline service scopes and engagement.
  • No misleading pricing, hidden fees, or vague service descriptions.


4. Reputation & Client Feedback

To ensure businesses listed on ThruHQ are trusted and reliable, we assess their reputation based on:

4.1 Verified Client Testimonials & Case Studies

  • We verify testimonials to ensure they are from real clients, not fabricated reviews.
  • Case studies should provide specific details about the problem solved, services delivered, and impact achieved.

4.2 Online Presence & Public Reviews

  • We analyze third-party review platforms (e.g., Google Reviews, Clutch, G2) to gauge client feedback.
  • A mix of positive and constructive feedback is expected—companies with only fake-positive reviews will be flagged.
  • Negative reviews that indicate serious concerns (e.g., fraud, unethical practices) will disqualify the company.

4.3 Social Media & Professional Reputation

  • We assess the company’s presence on LinkedIn, X, and other platforms for thought leadership, engagement, and credibility.
  • Companies with spammy, misleading, or inactive online presence may not qualify.


5. Data Accuracy & Integrity

5.1 Regular Data Audits

  • We perform routine checks to ensure company details remain accurate.
  • Listings are updated or removed if major discrepancies arise.

5.2 Reporting False Information

  • Users can report inaccurate or misleading information for review.
  • Companies providing false credentials, fake clients, or misleading claims will be delisted permanently.


6. ThruHQ Verification Levels

Companies listed on ThruHQ are categorized based on verification levels:

  1. Top-Tier Provider – Companies that have been thoroughly analyzed by our team with additional insights added.
  2. Industry Leader – Companies that stand out based on client portfolio, industry reputation, and performance metrics.


7. Continuous Monitoring & Updates

Validation doesn’t stop at approval. We ensure ongoing credibility by:

  • Updating company profiles with new client wins, awards, or service expansions.
  • Reassessing companies annually to confirm continued performance.
  • Removing inactive or underperforming listings to maintain directory quality.
