Short answer

How can I run background checks using my AI?

You tell your AI to create a screening contact or a new vetting check. It uses the InfoVetted tools to register the person and initiate the specific background check you need. You'll see the results and status updates directly in your chat.

The outcomes

Where your requests land

Every command you give your AI results in one of these four states.

CONTACTS

New screening profiles

The AI builds a profile for the person you want to vet. This data is ready for any upcoming background check.

REQUESTS

Active vetting checks

Your AI triggers the actual background investigation. You get a record of the request immediately.

OPTIONS

Available check types

Your agent can look up which specific background checks are supported. This ensures you pick the right one for the job.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

The AI handles the data entry and initiation. You stay in control to review the final reports and make hiring decisions.

The workflow

What your AI does when a request arrives.

The AI handles the administrative heavy lifting so you don't have to log into a separate dashboard.

  1. Identify check types

    Before starting, your AI checks which background screening options are currently available to ensure the request is valid.

    list_supported_check_types

  2. Build the profile

    The AI takes the person's details from your chat and creates a formal screening contact in the system.

    create_screening_contact

  3. Launch the check

    Once the contact is set, the AI starts the specific background investigation you requested.

    create_new_vetting_check

  4. Confirm completion

    The AI confirms the request was successfully sent to InfoVetted and notifies you that the process is underway.

FAQ

How the background check process behaves

  • 01

    Can my AI run a check without me seeing it?

    No. While the AI initiates the request, you are always the one providing the instructions and reviewing the outcomes.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete a background check once it's started?

    No. The current tools only allow for creating contacts and initiating checks. You must manage deletions through the InfoVetted platform.

  • 03

    Does the AI need to know the specific check type?

    Yes. You should use the tool to list supported types first to ensure you are requesting a check that the system can actually perform.

  • 04

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes, as long as your client is MCP-compatible, like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 05

    Will the AI automatically decide who to hire?

    No. The AI only handles the data entry and the request process. You make all the final decisions based on the reports you receive.
