| Beyond Background Screening
A BACKGROUND CHECK SHOWS WHO THEY WERE. We'll SHOW YOU WHO THEY ARE.
Yardstik combines AI fraud prevention, background screening, credential verification, and continuous monitoring so you always know who's actually in your workforce, not just who passed a check two years ago.
One Platform. Full Lifecycle Protection
Real trust isn't built off a single moment in time. Bring layered, always-on workforce protection to your business.
BEFORE A CHECK RUNS
Fraud Prevention
Stop synthetic identities, deepfakes, and AI-generated credentials before a single screen runs.
AT HIRE
Background Screening
Criminal, MVR, drug, DOT, healthcare, social media. Fast, accurate, and fully FCRA-compliant.
VERIFY CLAIMS
Credential Verification
Employment history, education, professional licenses. Confirm that what candidates say is actually true.
EVERY DAY AFTER
Workforce Monitoring
Criminal, sex offender, arrest records, (and more) ways to know when something changes, before it becomes a liability.
Built for how you work
We don’t just integrate with your workflows, we connect ecosystems. Choose the way you’d like to connect our technology.
PRE-BUILT INTEGRATIONS | YARDSTIK DIRECT
For My Workforce
Leverage an existing ATS / HRIS / HCM integration or use Yardstik directly to screen your workforce. This path is for businesses who need to hire fast and stay protected long after hire.
Up and running in days
Most background screening vendors take weeks to onboard. Yardstik connects to your existing ATS, HRIS, or HCM in days — not months. Pre-built integrations with platforms like Bullhorn, Fountain, Paylocity, Avionte, and more mean your team spends zero time on custom setup. You hire fast. We make sure you're protected while you do it.
Full Workforce lifecycle protection
A background check at hire is just the beginning. Yardstik layers fraud prevention, screening, credential verification, and workforce monitoring into a single platform. That means you're not just protected on day one, you're protected every day after.
Works with the tools you already use
No ripping and replacing your HR stack. Yardstik integrates with the ATS, HRIS, and HCM platforms your team already runs on. If you use Yardstik directly, our dashboard is built for speed, not a learning curve. Either way, your workflow stays yours.
Trust Technology every customer gets
Most background screening companies just focus on single point screening type and gate all upgraded protections behind price hikes. The message, whether stated or not, is that real protection costs a fortune.
Trust program shouldn't have gaps just because a company didn't buy the right package, that's why every customer on Yardstik gets un-gated access to fraud insight, workforce monitoring, custom adjudication, report management, screening analytics and more.
PBSA accredited · FCRA compliant
Your liability, covered. Compliance isn't a feature you should have to ask about. Yardstik is PBSA accredited and fully FCRA compliant — which means every screen you run is backed by the industry's highest standards. When something goes sideways, you're protected. That's not fine print. That's the foundation.
API FIRST | WHITE LABEL | CUSTOM EMBED
For My Platform
For gig marketplaces and vertical SaaS platforms that want trust infrastructure embedded directly into your product experience. This path is for businesses that want a custom integration within your technology.
A REST API
Yardstik's full REST API gives your engineers complete control over how trust infrastructure connects to your product. Trigger screens, retrieve results, manage workflows; all programmatically. No black boxes, no workarounds. Build the integration your platform actually needs.
Elevate Your branded experience
Your candidates and workers never know Yardstik is powering anything. White-label deployment means every touchpoint from the screening invite to the results display lives inside your product, under your brand. You own the experience. We handle everything behind it.
Trigger screening from any platform Event
Don't limit trust checks to a single onboarding moment. Yardstik lets you fire screening from any event, signup, job acceptance, reactivation, status change. Build the trust logic that fits your product, not a workflow designed for someone else's. Your platform sets the rules. We execute them.
Surface results inside your existing UI
Sending users to an outside portal to see their results breaks your product experience. Yardstik returns results directly into your existing UI so candidates and admins never leave your platform. Clean, embedded, on-brand. Exactly where your users expect it.
One partner. Full compliance.
Platforms carry real liability when they touch workforce trust data. Yardstik is SOC 2 certified, FCRA compliant, and PBSA accredited so you're not inheriting compliance risk, you're offloading it. One vendor relationship covers the legal, security, and regulatory requirements your team would otherwise have to solve separately. Build fast. Stay protected.

FRAUD & POST-HIRE RISK IS GROWING
Instead of background screening a candidate once and moving on, our technology layers in full lifecycle protection to combat the growing fraud and post-hire gaps most organizations miss.
1 IN 4 CANDIDATES APPLYING ARE FAKE
Candidate fraud and identity deception is showing up everywhere. Deepfakes, synthetic identities, AI-generated credentials. The cost to deceive dropped to zero and the tactics keep evolving.
81% of employers never check after hire
Run a check at hire. Move on. Never check again. That model was always a compromise now it's indefensible. New risk events happen daily; crimes, DUIs, expired licenses, and more.
The workforce you think you have and the one you actually do aren't always the same.
Yardstik closes the gap. At hire and every day after. Point-in-time screening is a photograph. Your workforce needs a live feed.
