Screening without the side project
Most teams buy a screening tool, learn each country's rules, and chase new hires themselves. With Borderless AI, you make one selection and we do the rest.
One request, no extra vendor
Select the background check when you add a hire. There is no separate screening account, contract, or login to set up.
Run by our team
The team that onboards your hire also opens the check, follows up with your hire, and sends you the outcome.
Set up for each country
What can be checked, and what consent it takes, changes by country. Every check is scoped to where your hire lives and works.
What we can check
A background check through Borderless AI can cover the areas below. Which checks are available depends on your hire's country and local law.

It depends on the checks you choose and the country. Our team will give you an expected timeline when you make the request.
