Background checks

Trusted by startups & the world’s largest companies
Streamline onboarding from the first touch
Collect required information and FCRA acknowledgements upfront. Then, pre-fill background check forms with verified government ID data to reduce friction and minimize errors.

Verify and screen users quickly and reliably
Automatically verify users and initiate Yardstik-powered background checks. Create a more complete risk profile by layering on additional screenings and risk signals.

Automate decisions and follow-up actions
Set up automated approvals or follow-ups based on background check results. Store statuses directly in Persona and instantly trigger downstream actions like updating your ERP or CRM.

Collect and verify government ID documents, such as passports and driver’s licenses, from more than 200 countries and territories.
Screen hundreds of state, national, and international sources to identify potential records for candidates.
Adjust image quality requirements, face obstruction detection, retry attempts, and more to meet your requirements.
Get state-specific driving history reports, including license details, traffic violations, and potential point charges, which typically cover the last three years per state regulations.
