Topline Holdings, Inc.

Topline is developing what it describes as the world's largest public search engine of professionals, with a stated goal of indexing over 700 million global professionals to connect them with work opportunities. The company provides professional intelligence services, offering a searchable database for referrals in fields like public relations and policy, and helps businesses procure credentialed experts. Their primary customers are independent professionals, growing firms, and companies seeking to hire talent or generate business leads. The platform exposes professional information which can include work history, educational background, and contact details. While this data is business-oriented, its large-scale aggregation in a searchable format creates risks, as it can be exploited by bad actors for targeted phishing scams, fraud, or unwanted solicitation. To protect their information, professionals should be cautious about the details they share publicly and can exercise their data rights by submitting an opt-out request, as outlined on the company's website.
