Published forecasts point to growth, but they do not establish a common US enterprise software growth rate. Verdantix’s software forecast and the two US eGRC forecasts cover different markets and periods. They are expectations, not observed 2026 growth. (verdantix.com)
Supplier disclosures offer a more concrete, although narrower, view of purchasing activity.
What do disclosed customer and contract volumes show?
| Indicator | Reported observation and period | Important limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Workiva customer base | 6,750 customers at 30 June 2026, up 283 year on year; approximately 4.4% growth, calculated from the disclosed counts | Company-wide customers, not US GRC-only deployments. |
| Workiva larger contracts | 2,690 customers above $100,000 ACV; 656 above $300,000; 276 above $500,000, at 30 June 2026 | These are nested, not additive, thresholds. |
| Workiva contract expansion | Those cohorts grew 20%, 34% and 33%, respectively, year on year | Growth in large accounts is not the same as new-logo growth. |
| Workiva revenue | $255m in Q2 2026, up 19% year on year | Portfolio revenue, not a standalone enterprise GRC market measure. |
Source for all Workiva figures: financial results published 4 August 2026. The company also reported 111% net retention, a measure that includes both solution and pricing changes. (investor.workiva.com)
Interpretation: this example supports distinguishing customer acquisition from expansion and pricing. Net customer additions do not disclose gross wins, implementation completions or replacement projects. (investor.workiva.com)
In an adjacent category, Fortune reported Vanta reaching $300m ARR on 29 April 2026. (fortune.com)
For market modelling, keep recurring-revenue run-rates, recognised revenue, customer counts and contract counts in separate columns. Do not divide a broad market estimate by a pooled average contract value to claim a national installation count.
Unresolved: this research did not establish an authoritative annual count of US enterprise GRC purchases, completed implementations or incumbent replacements.
