Scorpion earns its third consecutive BIG Innovation Award for technology built to help local businesses capture more booked revenue.
SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Scorpion, the leading provider of digital marketing and technology solutions for local businesses, today announced that Scorpion Convert has been named a winner of the 2026 BIG Innovation Awards, presented by the Business Intelligence Group. This recognition marks Scorpion's third BIG Innovation Award, following its 2025 recognition for RevenueMAX and 2024 recognition for AI Chat. Together, these awards recognize Scorpion's focus on building technology that helps local businesses maximize their revenue.
The Business Intelligence Group recognized Convert for helping local businesses solve a common problem: missed calls, leads, and slow follow-up. Convert offers 24/7 AI-powered intake, lead qualification, and real-time appointment booking across phone, text, chat, and online inquiries. Clients using Scorpion Convert increased booking rates by an average of 26% with 2,540 booked appointments without staff involvement and $2.17 million in revenue generated.
The BIG Innovation Awards is a global recognition program that honors companies, products, and leaders who are transforming industries through applied innovation, intelligent platforms, and measurable real-world impact.
"The 2026 BIG Innovation Awards winners show that true innovation is no longer about chasing the latest buzzwords," said Russ Fordyce, Chief Recognition Officer at the Business Intelligence Group. "It's about building intelligent platforms, automating workflows with purpose, and making trust, privacy, and resilience the foundation of every breakthrough. These organizations and leaders are not just keeping pace with change, they are shaping the future of global business."
Judges highlighted Convert's revenue impact, operational value, and ability to reduce missed opportunities.
"We're grateful to receive a third BIG Innovation Award and to be recognized again by the Business Intelligence Group," said Rustin Kretz, Founder & CEO of Scorpion. "We built Convert because we saw local businesses losing opportunities, even when the demand was there. We're proud of the impact our teams are delivering and honored to see that work recognized."
Scorpion joins 159 winners recognized for their contributions to innovation across health, financial services, logistics, manufacturing, and enterprise technology.
