PESCHECK®

PESCHECK® operates as a specialized provider of digital background screening services, positioning itself within the HR technology and RegTech markets. Founded in 2015 by CEO Serhat Elban and CTO Bram Mittendorff, the company is headquartered in Enschede, Netherlands. Elban's ambitious vision from the outset was to create a globally competitive service, a goal pursued from the company's early days. Mittendorff complements this with a deep technical background, holding degrees in Informatics and Art and Technology, and prior experience as a Head of Security and senior software developer.

The firm offers a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution designed to automate and accelerate the employee onboarding process for its clients. It serves a diverse client base, including small and medium-sized enterprises, larger corporations, and organizations in sectors like government, finance, and technology. The business generates revenue by providing these screening services through its platform. The core of its business is to supply companies with verified information, enabling them to build trust and mitigate risks associated with hiring, such as fraud or reputational damage.

The PESCHECK platform is an all-in-one tool for pre-employment, in-employment, and freelancer screening. Its service portfolio is extensive, featuring checks such as identity verification, international and local criminal records, diploma and credit checks, and adverse media screenings. A key feature is its capacity for global background checks, utilizing international databases to verify candidates who have lived or worked abroad, all while adhering to international privacy laws like GDPR. The platform is built for efficiency, offering a robust API that integrates with clients' existing HR and CRM systems, such as Greenhouse and Sage HR, to create a seamless workflow. This automation streamlines the verification process, reduces manual effort for HR departments, and is designed to provide a transparent and user-friendly experience for the candidate being screened.
