Where they pull apart

Accurate Background

Stands out: Minority-owned global screener that also offers a background check API with a developer sandbox.

Watch out: There is no public per-check price. Packages are quoted, and the client ordering platform is aimed at employers with 1,000-plus staff.

Not the right fit for

One-off personal background checks
Buyers who want a published per-check price

Asurint

Stands out: A CRA that still does employment, tenant, and government work, not a startup API wrapper.

Watch out: Quote-only. There is no self-serve $29.99 package.

Not the right fit for

SMBs that want a public per-check price
Teams that only need a developer API
Non-US hiring as the primary volume
