KarmaCheck
KarmaCheck Inc. is a San Francisco based, API-first background check and credential verification company serving staffing, healthcare, gig-economy, call-center and IT/tech hiring workflows. The KarmaCheck API is a REST contract on api.karmacheck.io covering the full screening lifecycle: creating and placing cases, candidate onboarding with FCRA, e-signature, Canada, international and location-specific disclosure acknowledgement, criminal, identity, motor vehicle record, education, employment, professional-licence and occupational-health screenings, secure document upload and retrieval, package and service catalogs, jurisdiction lookup, verification-book search, adjudication and pre-adverse-action documents. Results are pushed asynchronously through Svix-delivered, HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks (case.statuschange and casedata.statuschange). KarmaCheck also operates a remote MCP server so agents can order and track screenings from natural language, and integrates with Bullhorn, Workday and symplr CTM. The company holds a SOC 2 Type 2 report and operates as an FCRA consumer reporting agency.

Kin Score
Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Biometrics Testing (biometric recognition vendors, identity verification depth) | undeclared | - | - | - |
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
