The diligence gap

Full investigations cost five figures and take three weeks.

So for most matters — the vendor, the co-investor, the target's key executive — nobody runs one, and the deal proceeds on a search engine and a good feeling. CheckRisk closes that gap in three steps.

  1. Step 1

    Name the target.

    Company or individual, any jurisdiction. Add what you know.

  2. Step 2

    Choose your level.

    Two fixed fees. No à la carte, no hourly rates, no surprises.

  3. Step 3

    Get the report.

    Findings, red flags, risk rating, next steps — delivered to your account, typically within the hour.

FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

What's the difference between Level A and Level B?+

Level A ($750) is enhanced screening: registry verification, sanctions and watchlists, adverse media, litigation and enforcement history, beneficial ownership, political exposure, executive backgrounds, a written reputational-risk memo and a four-dimension risk rating. Level B ($5,000) is the full file: everything in A, plus supply chain and trade data, ESG and labor controversies, and discreet human-source inquiries. Levels stack: a Level B upgrade builds on your completed Level A report rather than starting over.

How do the discreet inquiries actually work?+

For Level B matters, our proprietary AI interview system matches the matter to vetted sources in our network — former regulators, investigators, in-country journalists, deal professionals. Sources are securely briefed, interviewed directly, and every response is reviewed by an analyst before it enters the record. All inquiries run under signed attestations: strict confidentiality, no material non-public information, lawful-inquiry conduct only. The subject is never contacted and never knows.

How fast is it, really?+

Most reports arrive within the hour; the commitment is the same business day, at both levels. The discreet field inquiries included in Level B add 24–48 hours and arrive as a supplement.

Where does the information come from?+

Global sanctions and watchlists, corporate registries, court and enforcement records, press archives, and structured web research — plus, for Level B matters, our vetted human-source network. Every report itemizes the sources consulted.

How is AI used, and how do you handle accuracy?+

Frontier AI models run the research, cross-reference sources, and draft the report against a fixed structure. Anything that can't be verified is labeled unverified — we'd rather flag a gap than fill it with confidence.

Is this legal to run on a person?+

CheckRisk is built for business-purpose diligence: transactions, investments, vendor onboarding, litigation support, and compliance. CheckRisk is not a consumer reporting agency, and reports may not be used for employment, credit, insurance, or housing decisions under the FCRA.

Is my search confidential?+

Yes. Targets are never notified, matters are visible only to your account, and reports are encrypted in transit and at rest. We don't sell, share, or train on your matter files. CheckRisk is a product of SidarGlobal LLC, a Washington, D.C. firm.
