The short answer

HireRight : Enterprise CRA with a REST API and wide ATS and HCM integrations if you want a large-employer screening vendor. From Sales-quoted
First Advantage : Global employment screening if Asurint is too regional for the footprint. From Sales-quoted
Checkr : API-first US screening if you want productised checks instead of a CRA quote. From $29.99/report
GoodHire : Self-serve US SMB screening with a public start. From $29.99/check

Why people look past Asurint

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

What we noted

Quote-only, with no published rate card
No public per-check card
Integration list is not published in detail

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

Worth keeping in mind: A CRA that still does employment, tenant, and government work, not a startup API wrapper.

What each one does differently

HireRight

Sales-quoted API

Why it comes up: Enterprise CRA with a REST API and wide ATS and HCM integrations if you want a large-employer screening vendor.

Stands out: Integrates with 70 solutions across more than 45 HCM and ATS providers, plus the HireRight Connect REST API.

Watch out: No published per-check price. Cost depends on industry, check types, volume and regulatory needs, so budget only after a scoped package.

Best for

Enterprises with regulated or high-volume hiring
Teams that screen inside their ATS or HCM
Employers screening candidates in many countries

First Advantage

Sales-quoted API

Why it comes up: Global employment screening if Asurint is too regional for the footprint.

Stands out: Background and identity checks across more than 200 countries and territories, with ATS integrations and REST APIs.

Watch out: No published per-check price. Former Sterling customers are moving onto First Advantage, so confirm which platform your contract runs on.

Best for

Global employers screening at scale
Teams that also need I-9 and E-Verify
Former Sterling customers

Checkr

$29.99/report MCP API

Why it comes up: API-first US screening if you want productised checks instead of a CRA quote.

Stands out: Self-serve packages plus MCP at mcp.checkr.com so hiring agents can read reports.

Watch out: Court and database access fees are billed on top, at cost. Essential and Complete cost more. International checks are priced by country.

Best for

US employers running criminal packages at hire
Teams that want candidate self-entry and ATS hooks
Platforms ordering checks through the Checkr API

GoodHire

$29.99/check API

Why it comes up: Self-serve US SMB screening with a public start.

Stands out: SMBs can actually see a rate card: Basic $29.99, Essential $59.99, Complete $94.99 per check, with a self-serve path under 50 checks a year instead of a mandatory sales call.

Watch out: Those prices are for fewer than 50 checks a year. Volume is a custom quote. County, state, and federal searches, drug tests, MVR, and education/employment verifications stack on. Third-party pass-through fees apply. Do not budget $29.99 as the all-in cost of a hire.

Best for

US SMBs that run occasional background checks
Staffing and hourly desks that want FCRA-compliant ordering from the ATS
Companies that also need drug tests and MVR on the same vendor
