Where they pull apart

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

HireRight

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.

Not the right fit for

  • Small firms wanting a published per-check price
  • Individuals ordering a personal check

Pros and cons

Asurint

  • Employment plus tenant plus government screening in one CRA
  • Drug testing in the same relationship
  • Traditional CRA motion for buyers who do not want a startup wrapper

  • Integration list is not published in detail

HireRight

  • Wide ATS and HCM integration coverage
  • REST API for custom integrations
  • Global screening coverage
  • No published per-check price
  • Enterprise sales cycle
  • Too heavy for occasional small hiring
