All people deserve a chance at a first-class life
Daniel and Jonathan met in 2013 while working as engineers for a gig start-up. There, they discovered the traditional background check was slow, manual, and designed to “screen-out” candidates, not “screen-in”; that many qualified individuals were being turned away from jobs just because of a criminal record.
They knew background checks could be faster—and fairer. So they set out on their own with new principles to disrupt the old way of thinking and began building a solution to provide people with greater access to meaningful employment without sacrificing accuracy.
The result? Checkr, an API first technology platform that combines the best in human expertise, AI, and machine learning. With fairness embedded and a focus on the candidate experience, Checkr makes it easy for people to understand reports and make fair decisions.
Checkr is uniquely positioned to combat human bias in hiring that prevents candidates from being considered for gainful employment. Daniel and Jonathan have spent the last eight years building an innovative product that seeks to support a fairer future by designing technology to create opportunities for all.
