PowerDMARC's answer

The idea for PowerDMARC came from noticing how businesses, both small and large, fall victim to very basic cyber attacks and fail to protect themselves from impersonation, email spoofing, and phishing, and are not able to afford basic cybersecurity protection due to the high cost and complexity of setup. The vulnerability we protect from is not allowing hackers to send emails from your exact domain name itself. Imagine if someone sends an email from your company’s domain name - how would anyone understand that this email is not real?

Many organizations across the globe lose billions of dollars every day due to hackers spoofing their own exact domains due to existing vulnerabilities in email protocols. The solutions that existed in the market were very expensive, inaccessible for many businesses, and very hard to set up and configure. The idea was to make domain and email protection very simple and provide it at a super affordable price for all organizations, with no technical knowledge requirement.

Split Fee's answer:

Abbie, our founder, knew that although split fee arrangements have existed in recruitment for decades, the process has always been manual: find a partner agency, negotiate terms, trust them with your candidate data, chase invoices. Most agencies avoid it because the overhead and risk outweigh the reward. Abbie built Split Fee to remove that friction entirely, with automated matching, progressive identity disclosure, built-in legal agreements, and automated billing, making split placements as straightforward as direct ones.

PowerDMARC's answer

PowerDMARC's primary audience includes organizations of all sizes, government agencies, MSPs, and MSSPs.

Split Fee's answer:

UK recruitment agencies; from boutique firms with a handful of consultants to mid-sized agencies with specialist sector coverage. Any agency that has either strong candidates without the right vacancies, or client vacancies they can't fill from their own candidate pool. Split Fee turns those dormant assets into placements.

PowerDMARC's answer

The primary technologies used for building PowerDMARC are email authentication protocols (DMARC, SPF, DKIM, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, and BIMI), Threat Intelligence, and Analytics.

Split Fee's answer:

A next-generation serverless platform, built for AWS.

PowerDMARC's answer

MSP/MSSP-First Approach

• A multi-tenant, white-label platform designed for MSPs and MSSPs.
• Partners can fully rebrand the platform, manage multiple clients under one console, and scale domain security as a service.
• Most competitors focus directly on end-users, while PowerDMARC empowers partners to build a business model around DMARC.

Complete Email Authentication Suite (Beyond DMARC)

• Instead of just offering DMARC monitoring, PowerDMARC integrates all key email security protocols in one platform:
• DMARC, SPF, DKIM
• MTA-STS & TLS-RPT (to enforce encrypted mail transfer)
• BIMI (visual trust with brand logos)
• Hosted DKIM, Hosted BIMI, Hosted SPF, Hosted DMARC, and Hosted MTA-STS services

This makes it a one-stop solution instead of piecing together multiple tools.

Advanced Reporting & Threat Intelligence

• User-friendly dashboards that convert raw DMARC XML reports into clear visuals.
• Forensic report redaction & encryption for GDPR compliance.
• Spoofing & phishing source tracing with real-time intelligence.
• AI-powered insights (e.g., spoofing patterns, misconfiguration alerts).

Automated Policy Enforcement

• Guided path from monitoring → quarantine → reject to make DMARC adoption stress-free.
• Click-to-publish DNS records.
• Automated recommendations that simplify what’s usually a complex manual process.

Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance

• SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance built into the platform.
• Role-based access controls, SSO, and MFA for organizations.
• Privacy-conscious forensic report handling.

Human-Backed Managed Services

• Unlike some self-service platforms, PowerDMARC provides expert support and managed DMARC services.
• Dedicated teams help enterprises and partners through onboarding, DNS record publishing, and policy enforcement.
• This hand-holding drastically reduces the risk of email outages during rollout.

Continuous Innovation & Niche Focus

• Regularly introduces new features (analytics, reporting, integrations) ahead of competitors.
• Strong focus on education, awareness, and training (DMARC training courses, MSP enablement campaigns).

Split Fee's answer:

Split Fee is the first purpose-built platform for split fee recruitment in the UK. Instead of relying on LinkedIn groups, WhatsApp messages, and manual agreements, agencies upload their candidates and vacancies and the platform automatically matches them across agencies.

Candidate identities are revealed gradually; anonymised at first, then progressively disclosed as both sides accept, so agencies can collaborate without the risk of circumvention.

PowerDMARC's answer

PowerDMARC offers more than just basic DMARC protections and analytics. Its host of unique and advanced features makes it stand out among competitors:

• A complete email authentication hosted service suite, including DMARC, SPF, DKIM, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT and BIMI
• Zero-touch, one-click SPF optimization using Macros
• Forensic reports with PGP encryption
• Full-platform white labeling for MSSPs
• Multi-language support for 11 global languages
• Responsive human support
• Advanced Threat Intelligence insights and analytics

Split Fee's answer:

Most "split fee networks" are just directories or social groups where agencies post and hope someone responds. Split Fee is an actual matching engine. It scores candidate-vacancy pairs, handles the legal agreements (non-circumvention, self-billing), automates invoicing and fee splits, and manages the entire placement lifecycle from match to payment. Everything that normally requires trust, phone calls, and spreadsheets is handled by the platform.
