Rightcheck

Rightcheck is recruitment verification software for employers handling candidate identity and eligibility checks. It is best suited to HR and recruiting teams that need candidate submissions, recruiter checks and central oversight in one workflow. The trade-off is custom pricing and a focus on UK and Republic of Ireland Right to Work checks.

Overview

Rightcheck brings together candidate, recruiter and HR tools for Right to Work, DBS criminal record and Proof of Address checks. Physical, digital and share code methods let teams handle different verification routes within the same platform, rather than splitting those tasks across separate workflows.

Its maker says Right to Work checks are often automatically approved in under 60 seconds, which can speed up routine cases; that does not mean every check will be approved that quickly. Rightcheck is the trading name of T4 Communications UK Ltd, based in Coventry, UK.

Key features

Candidate submissions

The candidate app guides applicants through providing requested information and ID documents, with tailored messages and automated reminders. This can reduce the effort of prompting applicants, while keeping the submission process focused on the steps the hiring organisation needs.

Recruiter checks and HR oversight

Recruiters can perform checks from a mobile app, receive approval notifications and complete mandatory Home Office imposter checks. An HR portal gives organisations visibility into checks and their outcomes, which suits teams that need oversight beyond the individual recruiter handling a case.

Verification records and integrations

Rightcheck supports digital status verification, document capture, status reminders and an audit trail. API access is also included among its capabilities. It integrates with popular HR and ATS platforms, with integration support provided at no additional cost; the maker does not name specific integrations.

Security and support

The recruiter app page says candidate data is encrypted, securely transmitted and wiped from the device. Rightcheck says it is GDPR compliant, holds ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications, is an approved Home Office IDSP supplier, and is registered on GOV.UK as a Digital Identity Service Provider certified against the UK digital identity and attributes trust framework. Customers receive one-to-one training and onboarding, online support, training materials and tutorials.

Pricing

Rightcheck uses paid, custom pricing. Buyers need to request a quote, so it is less convenient to assess against a fixed per-seat or per-check budget before speaking with the provider. No public seat count, usage quota, trial period or renewal term is provided.

Platforms

Rightcheck is available on Android, iOS and the web. The candidate and recruiter apps support mobile workflows, while the HR portal provides an organisational view of checks and outcomes.

Who it's for

Rightcheck is aimed at HR professionals, recruiters, hiring managers, HR directors and compliance officers. It is a stronger fit for organisations coordinating several types of verification across these roles than for teams seeking a single, simple web check. Its stated Right to Work scope is the UK and Republic of Ireland.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Physical, digital and share code checks, candidate submission tools, recruiter workflows and HR oversight sit within one platform.
• Pros: Document capture, status reminders, an audit trail and API access support managed verification workflows.
• Pros: Integration support is provided at no additional cost, and customers receive onboarding and training.
• Cons: Custom pricing makes upfront cost comparisons difficult.
• Cons: The stated Right to Work coverage is limited to the UK and Republic of Ireland, making it a poor fit for employers needing another jurisdiction's process.

Alternatives

For a free web-based route, consider the GOV.UK Right to Work Checking Service; no price or usage limits are stated. Choose Right To Work Checker if an API and a published entry tier matter: its free plan stops at 10 live checks a month, while Pro costs £14 a month for 100 live checks a month.

E-Verify is a free internet-based system for U.S. employers verifying newly hired employees, so it is the relevant option for that stated use case. Yoti Right to Work is another paid option with Android, API, iOS and web platforms; contact sales for a solution.

WorkRight is worth comparing for I-9 workflows: its Lite plan includes 50 monthly verifications, guided I-9 completion, document upload and storage, E-Verify management, audit trail records and remote completion workflows. Clear I-9 is a paid web option for readers focused on I-9, with a demo available.

EmploymentCheck Right to Work Check may suit buyers seeking per-check pricing: its cloud service plan is £2.25 per unit, and its Right to Work Check is £2.50 per check.

Verdict

Choose Rightcheck if your organisation needs candidate submissions, recruiter-led checks and HR oversight for UK and Republic of Ireland recruitment verification. Its breadth of check methods and workflow roles is the main reason to consider it; look elsewhere if you need transparent upfront pricing or Right to Work coverage outside those jurisdictions.
