Next-gen identity verification
We verify the human — not just the name on the application.
A borrowed clean identity is one of the biggest blind spots in pre-employment screening: a name and SSN can match a spotless record that doesn't actually belong to the person applying. PreHireBadge closes that gap with biometric identity verification built into every $5 check — no premium tier, no add-on.

Step 1
Live liveness selfie
The candidate takes a live selfie through their phone or webcam — not an uploaded photo. Liveness detection confirms a real person is present at the moment of the check, not a static image or video replay.
Step 2
Government photo ID match
That live selfie is matched face-to-face against the candidate's official government-issued photo ID using biometric facial recognition, confirming the person behind the application is the person on the document.
Step 3
SSN + address triangulation
The verified identity is then cross-checked against the SSN trace and address history already pulled for the background report, closing the loop between who the candidate claims to be and what public records confirm.
Step 4
FCRA-compliant, every time
Identity verification runs inside the same FCRA-compliant workflow as the rest of the report — disclosure, authorization, and (if needed) adverse action are already built in, so adding identity verification doesn't add compliance risk.
