FICO

FICO (Fair Isaac Corporation) is the analytics-software company behind the FICO Score, the credit-risk measure used in roughly 90% of top U.S. lending decisions. Founded in 1956 by engineer Bill Fair and mathematician Earl Isaac, the company applies predictive analytics and AI to help banks, lenders, insurers and other enterprises make faster, data-driven decisions. Beyond the score, FICO sells the cloud-based FICO Platform and applications such as Falcon Fraud Manager and Blaze Advisor. Headquartered in Bozeman, Montana and traded on the NYSE as FICO, the lean, ~3,800-person firm reported record fiscal 2025 revenue of about $2.0 billion.
