Clearspeed began with a Marine who refused to accept that vetting failures were inevitable
In Iraq, Marine officer Alex Martin's close friend was killed on a joint patrol. The shooter was an infiltrator, embedded in their own formation, vetted and cleared to operate alongside coalition forces with the best tools and systems available at the time. The process said yes. And none of it was enough.
Martin came home obsessed with one question: how did the process clear someone who never should have been there? The traditional playbook looked backward at records, patterns, and history. Where data was missing, blind spots formed. There was no way to fill them in time.
So he set out to build a better way to assess risk and build trust at the moment of decision.

Most people are trustworthy. We started there.
Risk tools have long been built on the same idea: treat everyone as a potential threat and search for a reason to reject them. They find what they are built to find. Meanwhile, the people who did everything right wait anyway.
Clearspeed starts from a different belief: that most people are genuine. So it fast-tracks them, and gives the few who warrant a closer look a path through the regular process. The result is faster, fairer, and objective by design.
