Waterford-based AI company Klearcom finished third in Deloitte’s list of Ireland’s fastest-growing technology companies.
Klearcom was founded in 2020 and is currently based in Carriganore. The company uses AI to stress-test and improve the quality of businesses’ Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems. Their clients include Pfizer, Google and Mastercard.
Deloitte’s ‘Fast 50’ list is ranked based on revenue growth over a four-year period. The annual ceremony was held at the Mansion House in Dublin on Wednesday, November 27.
Stormharvester, a Belfast-based group that uses AI to prevent sewer overflows, won top prize.
“Our ranking of third on the Technology Fast 50 list is a standout highlight to what has been an exceptional year for Klearcom,” said Klearcom CEO and co-founder Liam Dunne.
“We want to take a moment to thank Deloitte for this honour and our entire team for being instrumental to our success.
“Fuelled by this year’s achievements, we look forward to reinforcing our position as a market leader in this space and achieve even greater heights in 2026 and the years ahead.”
Klearcom recently received an investment injection from London-based private equity firm Synova to support the company’s rapid expansion, with Klearcom now operating in the USA and India.
Synova manages over €2 billion of funds and invests in companies valued between €25 million and €250 million across Europe.
“The team has scaled the Company rapidly over recent years providing exceptional software solutions and a critical value proposition, and we share their ambition to become a category leader in AI-led CX assurance,” said Synova partner Zac Tsai following the investment.
