Hiring International
Talent Just Got More
Complicated

New federal requirements, rising H-1B costs, and evolving compliance standards demand a smarter screening approach.

A single H-1B visa can exceed $100,000 — pushing companies to hire locally or via overseas offices while still needing standardized global checks.

H-1B Cost Pressure

Federal requirements now extend mandatory social media screening to ESTA, H-1B, and H-4 applicants — adding a new compliance layer.

New Social Media Requirements

Global Consistency Gap

Whether talent is US-based or abroad, companies must run international checks in a compliant, standardized way — across all jurisdictions.

One Platform for Background Checks +
Social Media Screening

US employers must now evaluate public online presence AND global identity history for foreign hires — we've combined both into one seamless workflow.

Global Background Checks

Social Media Screening

We scan 10 years of public online activity — flagging violence, hate speech, extremism, sexual misconduct, and reputational red flags — fully aligned with new US ESTA & H-1B requirements, so every hire checks out on paper and online.

From verifying identity and global criminal records, to confirming employment history, education credentials, professional licenses, and global sanctions & watchlists — every check you need, in one platform.

Need something beyond international background checks or social media screening?


Chances are, we already have exactly what you're looking for.
