CE Broker

CE Broker primarily serves state regulatory boards — such as nursing boards and medical boards — that contract with the company to manage professional licensing, continuing education tracking, and disciplinary record-keeping. The platform is also used by healthcare employers, malpractice insurers, and staffing firms who query the system to verify clinician credentials in real time.

The company generates revenue through multi-year government contracts with state regulatory agencies, as well as per-transaction fees charged to healthcare professionals and organizations that report continuing education credits or perform license verifications through the platform. This hybrid model combines stable public-sector contract revenue with usage-based transaction income.

CE Broker's defensibility rests on regulatory integration rather than software features alone. In states where it operates, the platform is designated as the official system of record for license compliance by statute or administrative rule. Replacing CE Broker would require a competitor to navigate state procurement processes and convince regulators to amend compliance workflows already embedded in the healthcare labor market.

CE Broker received a growth investment from Spire Capital in 2021, a private equity firm focused on technology-enabled business services and regulatory SaaS. Prior to that investment, the company operated as an independent, founder-owned business in Jacksonville, Florida.

The platform supports license tracking for nurses, physicians, and allied health professionals, including pharmacists, physical therapists, and mental health counselors. Coverage depends on which state boards have adopted the system, with the strongest density in the southeastern United States through contracts originating in Florida.
