About Us
We deliver pre-employment screening services at fair prices, with real human support,
for businesses with one employee or ten thousand.
Perfect Fit Background Checks is an employment screening and background check company based in Austin, Texas, servicing businesses across the United States. We provide a full range of services including criminal background checks, employment and education verifications, driving records, drug screenings, reference checks, social media searches, and more.
Whether you’re hiring one employee or managing a team of thousands, we deliver fast, accurate screening with live, U.S.-based customer support — all at fair prices.
Our Story
Perfect Fit Background Checks has been leveling the employment screening playing field for small and medium-sized businesses since our founding in March 2021.
We launched Perfect Fit because we discovered that small and medium-sized businesses were severely underserved by legacy big-box vendors.
Legacy vendors often charge 2X or even 3X the fair check price if you aren’t placing hundreds of orders per year. We’re on a mission to offer fair prices to all businesses regardless of order volume.
In addition to our commitment to fair prices, we’ve been proud to offer live, U.S.-based human support since day one. Demonstrating our commitment to satisfaction, all customers have direct contact with one of our owners. In 2025, big-box vendors started deploying AI chatbots to provide their front line customer support, and our commitment to live human support is more valuable now than ever.
As we continue our explosive growth, our customers have rewarded us by making us the top-rated pre-employment background check company on TrustPilot.*
Our Commitment To Give Back
We believe in supporting every job applicant on their journey to find work. Applicants with criminal records experience collateral consequences when looking for meaningful employment. We give 5% of profits to organizations creating opportunities and providing re-entry services for people impacted by the criminal justice system.
