Reference Check Automation Software

Let an AI agent handle employer and reference verifications—extracting, organizing, and highlighting issues—so your HR team can focus on eligibility decisions, not paperwork.

You’re spending hours each week copying details from Outlook emails, updating Excel trackers, and chasing down missing replies. As an eligibility coordinator or HR specialist, it’s tedious, error-prone work. Important discrepancies can slip through, and compliance audits with Workday or BambooHR records become a nightmare.

An AI agent that extracts, summarizes, and flags key details from employer and reference responses, saving HR teams hours each week.

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In staffing and HR departments, eligibility specialists and compliance officers waste 1.5–2 hours every week pulling reference details from Gmail, updating Google Sheets, and manually comparing applicant claims to reference replies. This repetitive work leads to missed discrepancies and makes it tough to keep audit trails up to date in systems like ADP or iCIMS.

Time wasted

1.5-2 hrs/week

Every week, burned on work an AI agent handles in minutes.

Money lost

$3,600-$4,800/year

In salary, missed revenue, and operational drag — annually.

If you keep ignoring it

Ignoring this means risking compliance violations during audits, delayed onboarding due to missed discrepancies, and increased staff frustration leading to turnover.
