Hi Jonah,

I run https://certsimple.com. We only do EV certificates, and we do it much faster than any of the existing companies, which normally quote 7-10 days to complete the validation process. I waited around a month for GoDaddy earlier this year, which is how I ended up making CertSimple.

CertSimple do EV certificates in an average of 5 hours.

- We check the customers info against the required government information sources (as well as a number of other places) before customers pay us.

- After we take the order, we provide a specific set of instructions based on a number of characteristics of the customer's actual business to make the validation process as fast as possible.

- We have a real focus on UX: there's no software to install or command line questions, our validation UI updates live, and we manually follow up with every customer to iterate our product.

I'm mike@certsimple.com, or @mikemaccana on Twitter.

Dis you hear about the CIA AOL mail box hacked ? Watch out for "social" intelligence. Other people could get the info you are checking and pretending to be the company.
