Neotas

Neotas brings third-party risk management, screening and investigations into one platform for teams facing consequential risk decisions. It is best suited to risk, compliance, legal and procurement professionals who need configurable workflows and broad, cross-border research. Its investigative range is a strength, but custom pricing and qualification for self-service reports make it less suited to buyers looking for a simple, immediate screening purchase.

Overview

Neotas combines enhanced due diligence, background screening and forensic investigations with tools for managing third-party risk. Searches can span archived web pages, court and corporate records, social media and media sources in more than 100 countries. That breadth is useful when a decision depends on fragmented or international evidence; teams handling only routine, narrowly scoped checks may find the platform’s investigative emphasis unnecessary.

Clients can choose AI-generated due diligence reports or analyst-led investigations delivered in days, while the company also offers bespoke advisory services. The self-service AI report option is subject to qualification. Neotas says most clients can deploy within 2–4 weeks, and a free consultation call provides a route to discuss fit. Its operations are ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certified.

Key features

Screening and due diligence

AI screening analyzes risk profiles, adverse media, internet results and public and corporate records, then summarizes findings across sources and languages. The platform reports coverage of 600Bn+ archived web pages, 1.8Bn+ court records, 198M+ corporate records and 40,000+ media sources. TPRM screening covers 30+ native languages. This combination can help teams examine subjects across jurisdictions and source types, though the scale is most relevant to complex risk work rather than simple checks.

Neotas offers both instantaneous self-service AI reports and analyst-led investigations delivered in days. The analyst option gives teams a route to deeper investigation, while qualification for self-service reports limits who can rely on the faster automated path. Employment screening includes digital right-to-work checks, social media screening, biometric ID verification, automated disclosures and credit checks, with pay-as-you-go pricing stated on the homepage.

Configurable third-party risk workflows

The TPRM platform supports onboarding, screening, assessment, monitoring and mitigation through configurable no-code lifecycle automation. Organisations can set risk thresholds, scoring models, approvals and escalation paths. That flexibility can align processes with internal controls, but teams without a defined risk process may have more configuration decisions to make.

Neotas says its TPRM platform includes pre-built frameworks for ESG, CSDDD and EUDR, with automatic updates as regulations evolve. The platform records evidence, decision logs, rationale and source attribution in an audit trail, which can make review and accountability easier across a decision process.

Integrations and access

The API-first TPRM platform advertises 400+ out-of-the-box ERP and CRM connectors, including SAP and Salesforce. EDD intelligence can also integrate with CRM, GRC, ERP or case-management systems through secure API. This is a practical advantage for teams that want risk research inside existing systems rather than in a separate workflow. Neotas offers criminal-record, identity, employment and education verification capabilities.

Pricing

Neotas uses a paid model, with custom pricing for its Custom quote plan. Cost depends on service, search depth and monthly volume, and an estimate may differ from the final price. That structure can accommodate varied investigative requirements, but buyers cannot compare a fixed public rate; they should clarify scope and expected volume before committing. No seat, quota, trial or renewal terms are provided.

Platforms

Neotas is available on web and through an API. The API option is particularly relevant to organisations integrating due diligence or TPRM into existing CRM, GRC, ERP or case-management systems.

Who it's for

Neotas is aimed at risk, compliance, legal and procurement teams in risk-critical environments, including investment, financial services and third-party risk teams. It is strongest for organisations that need cross-border research, configurable controls or analyst support alongside automated screening. A buyer seeking only a small set of routine checks may be better served by a narrower screening product.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Broad international coverage across web, court, corporate and media sources supports investigations involving varied evidence.
• Pros: Configurable workflows, pre-built regulatory frameworks and a recorded audit trail support structured, accountable third-party risk processes.
• Pros: More than 400 advertised ERP and CRM connectors, plus API access, offer options for embedding intelligence in existing systems.
• Cons: Custom pricing depends on scope and volume, so buyers need a tailored estimate rather than a straightforward published rate.
• Cons: Qualification is required for self-service AI reports, limiting that option as an immediate route to screening.
• Cons: The breadth of investigative capabilities may be unnecessary for teams with only routine, narrowly defined checks.

Alternatives

Background Check Software is a useful place to compare screening products across the category. Consider SpringVerify if you want a paid option with Android and iOS apps as well as web and API access. TazWorks Software is another paid alternative with mobile, web and API platforms; its software pricing is handled by contacting TazWorks.

First Advantage may suit small businesses looking for pay-as-you-go checks with no setup fees or minimum screening volume; it also offers a free plan. IntelliCorp is a web-based alternative whose Standard package covers SSN verification, sanctions, criminal database, sex offender and corrections searches. Choose Accurate Background if its listed Basic Package fits: it is priced at $155, paid once, billed Inc GST, and includes police check and identity verification, reference check and employment history verification.

Asurint offers customized screening services with pricing provided through a demo or sales inquiry. AuthBridge discusses pricing options with sales. Background Pro defines final pricing in a tailored quote based on its screening program.

Verdict

Neotas is a strong choice for risk, compliance, legal and procurement teams managing complex third-party, investment or employment decisions, especially when configurable controls, broad research and integration matter together. Its main differentiator is the combination of screening, workflow automation and investigative support; look elsewhere if you need transparent fixed pricing or an unqualified self-service route to routine checks.
