You send a Verify link. The candidate opens it on their phone, walks through a consent-first flow in 90 seconds, and you get back a complete identity package with cryptographic proof of every check. No tracking. No surveillance. Just signed evidence.
The candidate photographs their driver's license, passport, or work-auth document. We run authenticity checks: MRZ validation on passports, hologram detection, font-and-template matching against the issuing country's official specs, expiry date check, tamper indicators. Forged IDs get caught here.
Active liveness — the candidate is prompted to turn their head, blink, or follow a moving dot. Defeats printed-photo attacks, video replays, and deepfakes. Full disclosure first: the candidate is told what we're capturing, why, and how long we'll retain it. They can decline and your firm gets notified.
For US placements: I-9 supporting documents, E-Verify integration (Olympia operates as a designated agent), and visa status checks where applicable. For international: country-specific work authorization databases. No more "we thought they had a green card" surprises three months in.
The candidate attests their current location for the purposes of confirming jurisdictional work authorization. This is consented, time-boxed, and not ongoing tracking. We compare against IP, device timezone, and stated location — surfacing discrepancies as data for your judgment, never as automatic flags. The candidate explains, you decide.
During scheduled interviews, a short re-verification confirms the same verified person is on camera. Catches "ghost candidates" — a common scam where a polished interviewer attends the interview but a less-qualified person shows up for day one. Optional, consented per interview, and the candidate sees a clear indicator.
FCRA-compliant background checks — criminal history, education verification, employment verification, professional license validation. Olympia partners with a tier-one consumer reporting agency. Candidate consents in writing per FCRA. You get the structured report; we maintain the audit trail.
A list of certifications most competitors don't have, and the laws they routinely violate that we don't.
Lawful basis: explicit consent. Right to access, erasure, portability honored within 30 days. DPA available for EU candidates. CCPA opt-out for California candidates.
Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, Texas Capture or Use of Biometric Identifier, Washington HB 1493 — written informed consent for every biometric capture, retention schedule disclosed, destruction confirmed.
Verification flow doesn't ask protected-class questions. FCRA-compliant background checks with adverse action workflow. I-9 list A/B/C support. E-Verify designated agent.
Compliant in all 50 US states and EU jurisdictions. Explicit consent screen before any capture. Candidates can decline any biometric check and proceed with document-only verification.
Audit-ready controls: encryption at rest (AES-256), in transit (TLS 1.3), key rotation, access logging, principle of least privilege. SOC 2 audit underway, ETA Q3 2026.
For healthcare staffing firms: BAA available, PHI handling controls, audit logs that satisfy 45 CFR § 164.312. We're not a covered entity but we cover business associate obligations.
New York City Local Law 144 (AEDT bias audits) and Illinois AI Video Interview Act — compliant. No automated employment decision tool here. Verify surfaces facts; humans decide.
Documents retained 7 years (employment record), biometric data destroyed after 30 days unless candidate consents to longer for re-use across firms. Candidate-controlled deletion via portal.
A SHA-256 hash chain records every verification step. Each entry references the hash of the previous one, so altering any single record breaks the chain. Defensible evidence if a placement ever ends up in arbitration or court. Your verification record cannot be edited — by candidates, by you, or by us.
Generate a Verify link from your dashboard, or trigger it automatically from your ATS. The link is single-use, expires in 24 hours, and shows your firm's branding. The candidate opens it on phone or laptop — works either way.
Consent screen first — every check spelled out, retention disclosed, opt-out available. Then ID upload, liveness, E-Verify, location attestation. The candidate sees a progress bar and an explanation for each step. Average completion: 90 seconds. No friction, full transparency.
Structured report in your dashboard with all check results, the cryptographic audit chain, and any discrepancies flagged for your review. You decide — Verify never makes employment decisions. The candidate gets a copy too, and can re-use their verification with other firms (their choice).
No subscription. Pay per verified candidate. Perfect for small firms or teams piloting Verify.
Unlimited verifications at a flat monthly rate. ATS integration. White-label candidate experience.
For firms doing 1,000+ verifications/month, multi-office, or regulated industry staffing.
Olympia Verify costs less than one wrongful-placement claim. Costs less than one E-Verify audit fine. Costs less than one BIPA violation. Book 20 minutes — we'll show you the audit chain on a real verification, end to end.
