The problem with point-in-time
A background check at hire is just the beginning
Once a background check is complete, the results are frozen in time. Circumstances change. Drivers pick up violations. Employees run into legal challenges. Without continuous monitoring, your organization doesn't find out until it's too late.
Continuous Checks close that window. When something changes on a worker's criminal record or a driver's MVR, you're notified right away—not at the next scheduled rerun.
One Continuous Monitoring Platform for all uses
Continuous monitoring for every workforce risk
Criminal record changes and driver record changes both require real-time visibility. Checkr covers both.

Continuous Criminal
Know when a worker's criminal record changes—immediately
Continuous Criminal is a subscription service that monitors your active workforce against multiple data sources. When a reportable change is detected, you're notified in real time so you can act before it becomes a business or safety risk.
Arrest records
Direct integrations with prisons and holding cells across the US provide near real-time arrest data, verified at the county level before reporting.
Electronic county search
For workers with a current address in a county with electronic records, a search runs every 30 days to identify new criminal activity.
National criminal database
A pointer database searched every 30 days. Any new records found are verified through a subsequent county-level search.
Global watchlist
Monthly screening against domestic and international watchlists ensures new additions don't go undetected.
Sex offender registries
All public sex offender registries nationwide are searched every 30 days.
Checkr proprietary data
Workers are monitored against Checkr's live feed of background check data. Changes detected from another report on the same individual trigger a new search.

Continuous MVR
Catch driving violations and license status changes months before your next scheduled check
When a violation, license status change, or accident is detected, Checkr automatically generates a full MVR report so you can quickly apply your company’s driving policies and decide on the right next step.

Status monitoring
Accident monitoring
How it works
Simple setup. Automatic monitoring. Actionable alerts.
Both continuous products follow the same workflow: enroll your workers and let Checkr watch for changes.
Enroll workers
Add employees or drivers to Continuous Checks via the Checkr dashboard or API. Criminal and MVR monitoring can be configured independently per worker.
Checkr monitors continuously
We query criminal data sources and state DMVs on your behalf—near real-time for arrests, and daily in select states for MVR.
Incident triggers a report
When a change is detected, Checkr automatically generates a new report, verified and formatted for your adjudication workflow.
You review and act
Alerts surface in your dashboard with full report details, and your existing rules are applied automatically to support faster, consistent decisions.
