What IT рейтинг UA does

IT Рейтинг UA (IT Rating UA) is a Ukrainian digital ecosystem and rating platform founded in 2015 that catalogs, ranks, and showcases IT service providers — including web studios, SEO firms, SMM agencies, PPC agencies, mobile developers, design studios, and digital agencies — across all major Ukrainian cities such as Kyiv, Kharkiv, Odesa, Lviv, and Dnipro. The platform aggregates vendor data on 2,485+ companies, 38,954 portfolio websites, 5,173 case studies, and 6,231 articles, applying a transparent multi-factor scoring methodology that weighs reviews, portfolio recency, cases, articles, star ratings, domain age, tax-register verification, and industry awards (including Awwwards and Web Awards). It serves two primary customer segments: Ukrainian and international businesses seeking verified IT vendors, and IT companies themselves seeking lead generation, credibility signals, and visibility.

The underlying technology is a web-based ranking and directory platform with self-serve company profiles, search and filter functionality across city, service type, and price range, and a tender/Bid listing layer. Proprietary components include the published scoring methodology, a tax-register verification system (Company Verification), and a tiered paid profile confirmation service for NDA-protected projects. The platform operates as a freemium two-sided marketplace: free basic listings for vendors and paid PRO subscriptions (1,600 UAH/month or 9,600 UAH/year) that add visibility, unlimited content posting, analytics, and priority support, plus advertising placements and portfolio verification fees (350-500 UAH per website). The platform's go-to-market is primarily organic SEO, content marketing through articles and case studies, IT event listings and conferences (IT Arena, Mate Conf, Meet Magento Ukraine), and an affiliated annual Web Awards Ukraine competition. The founder, Stanislav Bakhariev, maintains independent operational control, and the company has continued operating through the 2022 conflict, reporting a 317% traffic increase, with only 6 employees and no disclosed external funding.
