Intelius’ iSearch Named Finalist in 24th Annual CODiE Awards

Intelius recognized for innovation in People Search

Bellevue, WA, March 21, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Intelius Inc., a company that empowers consumers and businesses with online information for intelligent decisions, has been named a finalist in the Software & Information Industry Association’s (SIIA) 24th Annual CODiE Awards.

Intelius’ newly launched people look-up service, iSearch.com, is competing in the Best Online Directory & Business Leads Service Category. iSearch.com allows users to search using information from a past or present context. Using proprietary semantic technology to link billions of online and offline records from public and professional databases as well as social networking profiles, iSearch categorizes data to create panoramic profiles of individuals.

“Today, our society is continually on the move, the frequency in which we change addresses is greater, the amount of time we spend at a job is shorter, therefore our contact information is constantly changing and people are left with nothing but dated information about us,” said Naveen Jain, CEO and founder of Intelius “iSearch transforms the people search process by allowing people to link old and new information with online and offline data to instantly provide the most relevant results. We’re honored that the CODiE judges recognize the niche this product fills in the directory and people search space.”

For 24 years, the CODiE Awards have celebrated outstanding achievement and vision in the software, digital information and education technology industries. This year the CODiE Awards will recognize outstanding products and services in over 60 categories.

According to SIIA President Ken Wasch, “The competition is particularly steep this year during the 24th Annual SIIA CODiE Awards, making selection as a CODiE Finalist a real achievement.” Wasch further added that “All the companies on this year's list of CODiE Finalists should feel justifiably proud of their accomplishment in making it to this stage.”
