History

Founded in 2007, Josh Levy and Ross Cohen launched BeenVerified in 2009 and began advertising on national television. Initially, the company included a service called StandOut that allowed people to check and verify their own background information to use as a marketing tool online in the form of an embeddable seal as well as see what information employers could potentially find out about them.

Levy and Cohen have discussed the company's pivot from originally focusing on the small business market to becoming a consumer-focused background check service in Inc. and CIO Magazine.

In 2009, BeenVerified launched an iPhone application called the Background Check App, allowing users to use the service on their iPhones. It was the second background check app for the iOS platform behind the DateCheck app launched by Intelius a year earlier.

In 2010, BeenVerified released a sex offender tracking app for both iOS and Android platforms. The app uses public records such as sex offender registries, gelocation services, and augmented reality to show users the location of sex offenders.

The company released another app in 2011 called "Number Guru", a free reverse phone number look up service.

BeenVerified ranked #26 on the Inc. 5000 list for 2013, including being named the fastest growing company in New York. The company reported revenues of $13.7 million in 2012.

In 2015, BeenVerified launched a caller ID and reverse phone lookup app for the Apple Watch.

Services

BeenVerified uses traditional background methods in addition to Web 2.0 and social networking to return results to a requesting user. Users enters the name and/or email address of the person they are requesting information on and are given information from public records and other privately licensed databases of public record information. The Background Check App released allows users to run background checks with a smartphone. The app uses names and email addresses to run background checks through its website, with the capability of checking anyone in a user's contact list.

BeenVerified has an opt-out process for anyone wanting to remove their own information from the site. The company has also come under scrutiny in the past for its opt-out process and works with companies to remove this information upon request.

BeenVerified is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau.
