Overview
Appriss was founded in 1994 with a very simple belief: Technology can do a lot
of good in society. Appriss developed VINE (Victim Information Notification
Everyday), a system used in all 50 states that allows victims to anonymously
check an offender’s custody status. The solution is the nation’s most
comprehensive source of incarceration, justice and risk intelligence data.
Appriss also solves complex problems for the healthcare industry, such as
tracking purchases of highly-abused drugs like pseudoephedrine, and for the
retail industry by preventing theft loss and improving profits.
Approximately 55 Appriss agents handle around 33,000 calls monthly,
24x7x365. They assist callers with a wide variety of requests that include
registering victims so they can receive status updates for an offender,
providing doctors updates on a patient’s status before they write a
prescription and more.
