Why adjudicators love Checkr
Automated compliance
Our compliance engine is built to account for federal, state, and local laws. These rules are baked into the reporting process so all records that appear in a report are aligned with regulatory reporting requirements.
Language normalization
Background data is fragmented. Each jurisdiction and county has its own rules and regulations, plus its own language and set of terms used for charges and dispositions. Checkr’s proprietary charge classifier uses machine learning to quickly and accurately categorize and compare criminal charges, so that you encounter consistent charge descriptions on reports you adjudicate.
