Level 1, 63–73 Ann Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010, Australia
What it is
VerifyRef automates reference checks by emailing questionnaires, collecting replies, and providing AI sentiment analysis. A single credit covers one candidate with up to five references, analysis, and PDF or CSV exports. New users can start with three free credits without a credit card. Workflows can send consent emails and questionnaires, followed by reminders after 24 and 72 hours. The service also compares candidate and reference IP addresses to flag possible conflicts or fraudulent activity.
Its talent pool parses uploaded resumes into searchable candidate profiles and matches them to job descriptions for free. AI-led video interviews are in beta and use one credit per invitation, with a recording for each question. Surveys and exit interviews use one credit per two recipients and include AI analysis. The REST API supports creating checks, retrieving results and analysis, and managing jobs and templates; the maker says any ATS can connect through REST and webhooks. VerifyRef is available via web and API. Credit packs start at $33 for five credits, and purchased credits do not expire.
