Right To Work Checker vs Verifit

Right To Work Checker is a web and API service that checks UK right to work and right to rent share codes. It runs the corresponding gov.uk check and returns an answer as JSON, including the outcome, dates, conditions, applicant photo, and a gov.uk PDF. The right to work check is intended for employers, recruitment agencies, and platforms hiring in the UK. The right to rent check is for landlords and letting agents in England and applies to every adult tenant. The home page offers two live checks daily without an account; the Free plan includes 10 live checks a month and stops at that limit. Pro costs £14/month for 100 live checks, then £0.25 per check. Asynchronous checks can post signed results to a callback URL on every plan, including sandbox. Documentation provides cURL, Node.js, and Python examples, and says Node.js needs no SDK. Live inputs and gov.uk pages are retained for up to seven days to investigate failed or disputed checks, then deleted automatically. The service says it is not affiliated with HM Government, the Home Office, or gov.uk.

Verifit is workflow software for Right to Work checks, supplier due diligence, and document verification with an audit trail. Uploaded documents are checked for format, legibility, date consistency, and expiry before human review. Workflows can add sanctions-list and adverse-media screening, including scheduled re-screening. Unclear matches and failed checks can go to named reviewers who must record a written rationale. Verifit keeps an append-only, time-stamped activity log and exports ordered evidence packs in PDF or CSV. The service states that data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-based, and exhibit views are logged. Customer data is processed and stored in the UK by default using Cloudflare infrastructure. Machine signals assist review, while a human examiner confirms every final finding about a person. The JSON API and webhooks are in early access with design partners. An iOS and Android capture app is in development. Verifit is web- and API-based, with pricing on request.
