HelloVerify connects to multiple data sources to gather information about individuals. Our technology uses advanced Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning to search, filter & find records from large data sets. We have simplified this process through WhatsApp, making it easier for you to conduct a background check on an individual in 4 simple steps-
a) Validation - Request the type of background check (Get Verified or Verify Someone Else-Driver / Nanny / Employee). A Consent Form is sent, via a link, to the person being verified (applicant). Once consent & information is received, the verifier needs to pay the amount to start the verification.
b) Discovery - At this stage, HelloVerify conducts a search to examine the candidate’s contact with law enforcement. We match the credentials provided to us with the E-court records to get the candidate’s criminal record.
c) Investigation - We use the information made available to us by the candidate to ensure that the criminal record found is actually theirs and not someone else with a similar name.
d) Generating report - Once all the information is obtained, the results are compiled into a simple, concise report for the candidate to access. You will receive the verification report within 24-48 hours on your WhatsApp account.
It's an interactive platform which has laid down a step-by-step process based on the selection of the package. Information is available along with the documents required to initiate the verification process.

Conducting a background check is a long & tedious process. HelloV uses Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning expertise to automate the process and get you the report faster. However, in some cases there might be a small delay due to manual scripts, data in unstructured manner, lack of single depositories. The most common reasons are-
a. The background check is pending with the court - Criminal Checks may take longer as the automation level of the records may vary state to state. Hello Verify uses an expert team to analyse the data remotely, however some courts are inundated with thousands of requests daily and lack electronic records systems. In such a case, it may take up to 3-15 days to provide you with the accurate results.
b. Multiple ID Proof – An applicant has multiple ID proofs with name mentioned differently on each ID proof, we may have to conduct a manual check to ensure that their record is not mixed up with someone else with the same or similar name. This can cause your background report to take longer.
c. Employment Records not updated - Employment history is not updated or digitalized in most organization. Hello Verify would have to conduct a manual check to ensure the accuracy of the information verified, that may take longer than usual.
With our expertise in the process and our proprietary software, we have reduced turnaround times significantly & we strive to get you the report in the shortest time possible. For updates on the process, please connect with Hello Verify at hellov@helloverify.com.
