AuthBridge

AuthBridge is a suite for background screening, identity and risk checks, digital signing, and reusable credentials. It suits organizations that need several trust-related workflows and want integrations with existing business systems. Its range is a strength, but teams should choose by product and workflow rather than assume every capability sits in one application.

Overview

Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Gurugram, Haryana, India, AuthBridge spans employee screening, third-party due diligence, KYC, criminal-record checks, signing, and corporate intelligence. It reports serving more than 3,000 clients in 140 countries and conducting 15 million background checks each month. That scale makes the portfolio relevant to organizations operating across locations, though scale alone does not establish fit for a particular screening program.

The products address distinct needs: iBRIDGE supports employee onboarding checks, TruthScreen handles real-time KYC and risk profiling, SignDrive manages digital signing, and AuthNumber supports reusable credential verification. Buyers should identify which products they need and confirm how they work together before committing.

Key features

Screening and verification

iBRIDGE automates employee onboarding and supports personal, educational, and professional checks. The broader portfolio covers criminal records, employment and education verification, driving history, identity verification, and adverse-action workflows. That breadth can reduce the need to assemble separate providers for common hiring checks; it is less compelling for buyers seeking only a narrow, single-purpose tool.

For KYC and risk profiling, TruthScreen uses OCR, facial recognition, and liveness detection in real time. Vault searches more than 200 million records across 3,500 courts for criminal and negative-record checks. These capabilities address different verification tasks, so buyers should match the relevant product to their check types and process requirements.

Signing, integrations, and credentials

SignDrive combines electronic and digital signatures with workflows, authentication, identity and document management, tracking, and storage. Its stated controls include document encryption, audit trails, role-based access, single sign-on, and AES 256-bit encryption; it also states GDPR and ESIGN Act compliance. This makes it a broader document workflow option than a signing-only feature, while organizations with specific security or compliance requirements should confirm that the stated controls meet them.

AuthBridge offers plug-and-play integrations with more than 140 HRMS, CRM, ERP, and customer-support tools, a useful fit for teams that want verification connected to existing systems. AuthNumber creates a consent-driven identity layer for instant, reusable credential checks among employers, banks, platforms, and verifiers. Its security measures include encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access, secure credential lifecycle management, and tamper-evident architecture. It states support for DPDP Act compliance, GDPR alignment, ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and SOC 2 controls.

AuthBridge lists 24*7 customer support and a 24*7 candidate helpline for screening inquiries, which can help organizations and candidates get assistance outside standard business hours.

Pricing

AuthBridge is a paid product with custom pricing: contact sales to discuss pricing options. No public plan price is available to compare, so buyers should request a quote for the products, checks, and integrations they intend to use. The key tradeoff is that pricing requires a sales discussion rather than allowing teams to estimate costs from a published rate.

Platforms

AuthBridge supports web and API access. Web access suits teams working through a browser-based platform, while API access provides a route to connect verification workflows with other systems. The portfolio's more than 140 plug-and-play integrations may further suit organizations whose HRMS, CRM, ERP, or customer-support tools are among those supported.

Who it's for

AuthBridge is best suited to organizations with multiple screening or identity workflows, especially those combining employee checks with KYC, signing, or reusable credential verification. Its broad check coverage, integration catalog, and separate product capabilities can address varied operational needs. A buyer needing only one straightforward check should compare a focused provider as well as the scope and quote for the relevant AuthBridge product.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Covers criminal, identity, employment, education, and driving checks, plus adverse-action workflows, making it relevant to varied screening programs.
• Pros: More than 140 plug-and-play integrations can connect verification with common business-system categories.
• Pros: Separate products address KYC, signing, and reusable credentials beyond employee screening.
• Pros: 24*7 customer support and candidate assistance offer round-the-clock support channels.
• Cons: Custom pricing requires a sales conversation, making direct budget comparison harder.
• Cons: The portfolio spans distinct products, so buyers need to establish which products cover their workflow rather than treating it as one unified application.

Verdict

Choose AuthBridge if your organization needs a broad mix of screening, KYC, signing, or reusable credential workflows, particularly when integrations and round-the-clock support matter. Its main advantage is the breadth of products and checks under one provider; its main drawback is custom pricing and the need to establish which distinct products fit your operation. For a single, narrowly defined screening task, compare a more focused alternative before requesting a quote.
