why gig companies switch to Yardstik
Cost, time, and sanity savings
Confusing invoices and sneaky fees? Not here. Alias fee? Nope. County fee? Pass. How about a clean, one-page invoice instead of a small novel? We keep it simple and transparent because it’s the right thing to do—and our tech’s built to help you save where it counts.
Unmatched speed and accuracy
You need speed to hire fast and accuracy to hire right. We deliver both, without compromise. Turnaround times that work for your schedules and get workers working quickly. No more losing a worker because another platform moved faster in the hiring process.
Human support in minutes
How about an answer in minutes, not days? That’s what you get with Yardstik Support. No waiting around to learn about a report status, connect with a team that gets your needs and is next-level responsive. No ticket black hole, no call center runaround. Don’t believe us? Check us out on G2 where we have zero paid-for reviews.
Tech-first solution
From day one, Yardstik has been an API-first and tech-led company. Why? Because we knew there was a better way to help companies screen for risk. We’re focused on better products, faster innovation, and fewer excuses. If you’re tired of “this is how we’ve always done it,” you’re in the right place.
Integrated with your ATS
We build our integrations hand-in-hand with gig companies like yours. You’ll see features other integrations miss—because it’s designed to match your exact needs and get workers on the job faster. Order reports, see report status, filter by worker, and more, all right in your ATS. Fast, easy, and right where your team is already working.
Actionable hiring insights
Want to go further into the data? You’ll have an up-to-date, real-time Data & Analytics Dashboard that gives you visibility that the legacy providers won’t: conversion rates, hirable rates, volume by state, and cost per candidate. Clear, smart data that fuels better hiring decisions and shows your leadership how your program is doing.
“Usually you have to choose between saving money and working with a high-quality vendor. With Yardstik, I’ve always had both. We might be the smallest customer Yardstik has and I’d never know that because of the attention and personal touch we get. It’s great to have the cost savings, but the partnership means even more to me.“
– Nick Rohrbeck, Director of Product Management and Delivery at Better Trucks

Get more out of your screening integration
If your background screening program feels like a separate app or separate process, it’s not working for you. Yardstik’s solution is embedded right inside ATS tools like Fountain and Greenhouse — so you can order, track, and manage screening without switching tabs or windows. And we’ve built our integrations alongside real gig customers, so it actually works for your needs.
“Between the Yardstik team and the Fountain team, we did not have any issues as we got things integrated. We had one meeting and we knocked out what we needed to do. It is one of our most seamless, least stressful launches with a vendor that I’ve ever done.”
– Shannon Hare, Sr. Manager of Talent Acquisition at LivOps
