Argyle is a consumer-permissioned employment and income data platform. The REST API and Link SDK let lenders, mortgage originators, background-check firms, gig marketplaces, and government benefits programs verify a worker's identity, employment, income, paystubs, deposits, shifts, gigs, and ratings directly from the source payroll, gig, and banking systems. Verification workflows ship as a single API surface that can be embedded through hosted Link, web/iOS/Android/React Native/Flutter SDKs, or driven entirely server side. Argyle covers approximately 90% of the U.S. workforce and is used by partners including Checkr, NFM Lending, Regional Finance, and LMCU, with loan-origination integrations into Encompass, nCino, Empower, and Byte.
