OUR MISSION

We’re building the data platform to power safe and fair decisions

Trust is increasingly precarious. Fraud is on the rise, AI is changing the landscape, and it’s becoming more complicated to assess the trustworthiness of people and places.

Checkr delivers fast, accurate answers to inform safe and fair decisions—whether hiring someone, approving a loan, allowing a visitor into a school, selecting a nanny, or going on a date.

Trusted by over 100,000 customers of all sizes and industries

Checkr AI transforms fragmented data into actionable insights

Real trust isn’t blind faith—it’s informed by objective data about people. Checkr AI decodes tangled, hard-to-verify data to deliver reliable answers:

  • Is this person who they say they are?
  • What is their background?
  • Are their claims valid?

By turning complex data into actionable insights, Checkr helps customers make trust decisions faster, fairer, more compliant, and more scalable than ever before.

We champion fair chance hiring

Checkr is a leader in advocating for the business benefits of fair chance hiring. Fair chance hiring is the practice of basing employment decisions on a candidate’s qualifications and eligibility for a role, rather than automatic disqualification due to an arrest or conviction history. 

Pragmatic employers know that candidates with a criminal background can learn from their past mistakes through rehabilitation and make a positive impact moving forward. By engaging in fair chance hiring, employers can find a pool of qualified talent with a wide range of lived experiences that ultimately leads to stronger business outcomes.

Checkr partners with organizations to enable them to reduce risk while tailoring their hiring criteria to find the best talent for their business. We’ve also committed to Pledge 1%—pledging to donate one percent of our product, one percent of our equity, and one percent of our profits towards advancing fair chance hiring.
