Why Choose CIChecked?

Human Intervention

We understand the value of database technology but are also well aware of the limitations. Human intervention assures the quality our clients have come to appreciate with us. We review and compare the information obtained from each specific inquiry with all other result information. As trained investigators, we can quickly determine inconsistencies and areas of concern.

The Investigative Approach

Although all background screening entities located in New York State are required to be licensed private investigative agencies, most do not handle background screening with an investigative approach. CIChecked is staffed with trained investigators that treat every background screening as a background investigation. We look at the whole picture, compare the results from each inquiry on a subject, and make sure the completed information relayed to you is both reliable and easily understood.

Your Proactive Truth Partner™

We take a proactive approach to seeking and acknowledging the truth. It involves actively pursuing accurate and reliable information, being open to new perspectives, and taking responsibility for one's own understanding of the world. Embracing proactive truth means valuing honesty, critical thinking, and a willingness to engage in ongoing learning and self-reflection.

We serve clients both in the United States and internationally.
