Q4 Inc. is a capital-markets communications company founded by Darrell Heaps, who remains chairman and chief strategy officer, and led by chief executive Lewis Black^[2]. It says more than 2,600 public companies use its platform, with market capitalisations from about US$50 million to more than US$50 billion, and that half of the S&P 500 are clients^[1]^[2].

The platform covers the IR website, earnings and investor events, an investor CRM, surveillance and shareholder identification, consensus management, and Capital Markets AI, which Q4 describes as finance-trained^[1]. Q4 reports more than 16 million investors using its platform each month, more than 50 million quarterly website visits and more than 4,400 virtual events a year^[2]. A Forrester Total Economic Impact study cited by the company reported a 212% return on investment and a six-month payback^[1]. Q4’s breadth lets an IR team run websites, earnings calls and investor tracking from one vendor, which is its main advantage over point solutions. Prices are not published, several metrics on its site were displayed as placeholders during research, and the company’s ownership and headquarters are not stated on the pages reviewed.
