The problem

Employers keep paying to verify the same person again.

$5,000 per hire

Cost of running compliance checks on a single new hire

Background screening, right-to-work verification, training records, sanctions checks, qualification confirmation, and reference collection. Every previous employer has paid for the same checks. The data is locked in their systems.

10 vendors

Tools used to verify a single hire

Companies stitch together background checks, sanctions screening, training records, and right-to-work verification across ten different vendors.

4 weeks

Time to onboard a single regulated employee end to end

From offer letter to first day with full compliance verification, the average regulated employee takes four weeks to onboard. Most of that time is rebuilding what previous employers already verified.

Why now

Three forces are converging in 2026.

Regulatory complexity

Compliance rules multiply across every jurisdiction.

AI laws, pay transparency rules, and data protection requirements multiply across every jurisdiction every year. Compliance teams cannot keep up.

Verifiable credentials

Portable compliance is now technically possible.

The W3C Verifiable Credentials standard and the EU Digital Identity Wallet under eIDAS 2.0 make signed portable credentials production-ready.

AI verification

Verification at near-zero cost makes the rebuild model obsolete.

AI verifies compliance data at source in minutes for cents. The four-week, ten-vendor rebuild is no longer the rational choice.

Platform

How it works

Step 1

The employee owns the profile

Every credential is owned by the employee, contributed at source through trusted rails: government registries, professional bodies, training providers, employer records, and identity providers globally.

Step 2

Both sides contribute

Employees add identity, qualifications, and self-declared compliance data. Employers add employment history, conduct attestations, and regulatory references. Each credential is verified at source by AI.

Step 3

The profile travels

The profile is owned by the employee. When they move to the next employer, the profile moves with them. The new employer sees verified compliance evidence in seconds, not weeks. Verify once. Trusted everywhere.
