Operating identity
Finnrick Analytics LLC identifies founders Michael Carter and Raphaël Mazoyer and names Stephanie Adamson King for policy and platforms. External reporting describes an Austin coworking-space intake office, supporting a real receiving operation while confirming that partner laboratories perform the wet-lab work.
Operating history and strongest evidence
Named founders and policy leadership, a public verification workflow, published methodology, partner-lab attribution, correction records, and thousands of public test records.
Accreditation scope
Finnrick does not claim to be the performing laboratory. Accreditation and analytical method scope must be checked against the partner laboratory named on each result.
Methods and intake
Finnrick arranges testing, records provenance, publishes certificates and result pages, tracks corrections, and compares results across partner laboratories. Its public partner table names Krause, BTLabs, Chromate, TrustPointe, Freedom, Janoshik, and MZ among its recurring providers.
Public service record
Finnrick publishes a large test database, named partner laboratories, methodology, and a detailed corrections log. Its scores mix laboratory findings with documentation criteria, and recurring community complaints focus on intake communication and turnaround rather than proving analytical misconduct.
Important limits
Finnrick does not perform the wet-lab work, about one third of completed tests may remain unpublished, partner volume is concentrated, and accreditation cannot be inherited from a partner lab without matching the exact lab, site, method, and scope. A Finnrick match verifies the platform's published record and provenance fields; it does not independently validate the partner laboratory's measurement or physical-vial custody.
What Finnrick is—and is not
Finnrick Analytics LLC is a sample-intake coordinator, testing marketplace, scoring system, and evidence publisher. It accepts or purchases samples, documents provenance, routes them to named third-party laboratories, normalizes the returned data, publishes result pages, and applies its own ratings. It is not the wet laboratory that generated the chromatogram or other analytical result.
The company names founders Michael Carter and Raphaël Mazoyer and policy lead Stephanie Adamson King. External reporting describes samples being delivered to a compact Austin coworking-space office before partner-lab testing, which supports a real intake operation and reinforces the need to keep Finnrick's role separate from the performing laboratory's role.
Scale, partner concentration, and the business model
On September 3, 2026, Finnrick's homepage displayed 9,993 public tests. Its partner table totaled 9,990: Krause 6,157, BT Labs 2,254, Chromate 674, TrustPointe 315, Freedom 216, Janoshik 195, and MZ Biolabs 179. The three-record mismatch is a concrete metadata question, not evidence of fabricated testing; the larger issue is that roughly 61.6% of the partner-table total depends on the Krause workflow.
Finnrick now offers free and paid testing, expedited options, memberships, vendor launch support, private vendor testing, and intelligence products. It says vendors cannot pay to alter ratings. Selling vendor-facing services while publishing public rankings creates a structural conflict that warrants disclosure, but it is not evidence that a particular rating was purchased.
How to read a Finnrick score
The underlying partner-lab result and Finnrick's composite score are different evidence layers. Current standards combine identity, purity, fill quantity, and—depending on the selected standard—label documentation. A chemically strong result can therefore receive a lower overall score because of overfill or missing batch information.
The public corrections log is a meaningful transparency strength and also records real process failures, including swapped sample data, attribution mistakes, and automated-integration corrections that materially changed some scores and letter ratings. Disclosure reduces the risk that known errors remain hidden; it cannot prove that no undiscovered error exists.
Verification, turnaround, and custody boundaries
The official verifier uses the seven-character Test Certificate ID printed on the COA and should lead to the exact Finnrick result page. Finnrick states that genuine tests may remain unpublished when provenance is insufficient, so a public no-match is unresolved rather than invalid. The authoritative share target is the exact result page, including an unlisted shareable page when one exists, not a detached PDF alone.
Published program guidance shows that timing and price depend on the compound, test type, and partner laboratory. Community complaints describe long waits and intake communication problems, but they are self-selected anecdotes rather than service-rate statistics. A Finnrick match verifies Finnrick's evidence record and named partner result; it does not make Finnrick the analytical lab or connect a customer's physical vial to the tested sample without custody evidence.
