Credibled
Credibled is a background screening platform for employers and organizations, with automated reference checks and other candidate verifications. Candidates provide references, after which the service handles outreach and sends reminders every 24 hours for up to 10 days. Employers can create questionnaires tailored to industry, job title, or competency, using text and rating questions. Credibled validates professional email addresses and flags cases where a candidate and referee access the platform from the same IP address. Completed references can be exported as PDFs and emailed to employers. A lead-generation feature can collect information about potential job seekers and clients after a referee finishes a questionnaire, then notify the requester by email. Integrations include Bullhorn, JobAdder, and Vincere; an API supports custom workflows, check-status webhooks, and separate sandbox and production keys. Production data is hosted in AWS Canada Central and encrypted at rest and in transit. Pricing includes a free API sandbox, 4.50 CAD per check for eligible non-profits, and 9.00 CAD per candidate for automated reference checks, with no subscription or minimum commitment.
Who it is for
Credibled identifies staffing agencies, small and mid-sized businesses, regulated employers, non-profits, and startups as potential users. It suits organizations seeking automated reference checks and ATS or API connections.
