Sam LevinFounder · Real ID, Inc."Somewhere along the way, the background screening industry decided that \"good enough\" was good enough — opaque pricing, vague timelines, and a help center standing in for a human being. We built CHCKED for the HR managers who are done accepting that. Real turnaround commitments. Transparent pricing before you order. And an actual person you can call when a result doesn't make sense."
The story
Twenty years of getting this right.
CHCKED is the consumer-facing brand of Real ID, Inc. — established by Sam Levin in 2005 and grown into a multi-vertical screening platform serving employers, landlords, healthcare practices, fleet operators, and enterprise hiring teams across the country.
- One company, five verticals. Employment, tenant, healthcare, MVR, and enterprise — all on a single FCRA-accredited platform.
- Built around responsiveness. Every account, regardless of size, gets a real US-based account manager. No tiered support, no support tickets that disappear.
- Independently owned. No private equity rollup, no quarterly pressure to upsell. The product roadmap is built around what customers actually ask for.
- FCRA from the start. Compliance hasn't been bolted on — every workflow, every report, every dispute path was built to FCRA standards from day one.
