Josh Thanks for the listing. Just wanted to let you know we have done a major update to our site and on top of all the new features, have released a developer API. You can check it out at www.beenverified.com/developer Tue 22 Apr '08  ·  Flag
Anonymous Thorough Background Screening - There's NO App For That!!!
Electronic background screening from BeenVerified or a comparable service is NEVER complete or comprehensive. Only law enforcement has access to nationwide arrests and criminal convictions.

BeenVerified suggests in their commercial on CNN and CBS that you will have a clear picture of a person and you will know who you can trust. Criminal records, BeenVerified’s main selling point, are not comprehensively available online. BeenVerified DOES NOT have access to nationwide criminal records. You have to contact courthouses individually and usually search their records in person, not to mention pay the fees.

Courthouse searches are not free, and BeenVerified’s service (on their iphone App, at least) is free. How do they plan on making any money, if they’re conducting any kind of comprehensive searches? Using BeenVerified is hit or miss, and its more likely to be a miss. Do yourself a favor, skip BeenVerified and go to trained professional if you’re serious about keeping yourself and your family safe.

There's a big New York intelligence firm that has written about the shortcomings and unreliability of BeenVerified on their blog (Search Charles Griffin Intelligence, then go to their blog page)
