Built by a small team
from central Switzerland,
for whom fake reviews had gone too far.
According to our research (as of July 2026), Verix is the first Swiss review platform with a mandatory purchase receipt — built in Switzerland.
As of July 2026
The idea
Verix came from a simple observation: a 5-star review and a 1-star review look equally credible online — regardless of whether they're genuine. The figures behind this (SRF Data, BrightLocal, FH Worms, and more) are collected on why Verix is needed. We wanted to change that. Not for everyone. Just for Switzerland.
That observation first became a question: how do you prove a review is genuine without stripping the person behind it of their voice? The answer wasn't yet another algorithm you're supposed to trust, but proof anyone can verify themselves — a receipt instead of a claim, a public formula instead of a black box. The question became a prototype, and the prototype became Verix.
We're a small team from central Switzerland:
- Cindy Mühlethaler — President
- Shathusan Thurairajah — Board member
Verix is currently in beta — but the principles are fixed: transparency, data protection, no paid placements.
Core values
- 100% SwissAll data on Swiss servers. No US cloud service. revFADP-compliant.
- Radical transparencyThe scoring formula is public. No black box.
- Zero tolerance for fakesMandatory purchase receipt, OCR verification (automatically reads merchant, date, and amount from your receipt — more credible than a plain self-declaration), real-time anti-manipulation.
- No conflict of interestProviders pay for verification and transparency tools — not for better reviews or a higher ranking.
