ClearPath is an AI compliance agent that monitors your hiring process 24/7, flags FCRA violations before they occur, and keeps your company audit-ready every day.
The problem
Checkr, Cisive, HireRight — all of them hand you a report. None of them tell you what to do with it, or catch the step your HR team skipped on a Friday afternoon. That's where people get hurt. That's where lawsuits happen.
How it works
ClearPath monitors that proper written disclosure and consent were obtained before any background check runs. If a check fires without consent in your ATS, it alerts you immediately.
When a background report contains adverse information, ClearPath starts a mandatory clock. It sends the candidate copy of the report and FTC Summary of Rights. Tracks the dispute window. Won't let you act until the period expires.
Once the waiting period clears and any disputes resolve, ClearPath generates audit-ready documentation of the entire process — timestamps, notices sent, dispute outcomes — ready for court if you ever need it.
Built different
Connects to your ATS — Workable, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby. Watches every candidate status change. Flags violations the moment they happen, not after your next review.
Automatically sends pre-adverse notices, tracks the FCRA waiting period, handles disputes, and drafts final adverse action letters. No manual tracking, no missed deadlines.
Ban-the-box, salary history bans, arrest record restrictions — ClearPath tracks the patchwork of local FCRA variants and auto-adjusts your workflow for each candidate's jurisdiction.
Every action is time-stamped and logged. When regulators or attorneys come knocking, ClearPath exports a complete compliance history — notices sent, disputes filed, decisions made — in seconds.
Why now
In October 2024, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued circular 2024-06: any employer using AI-driven monitoring, algorithmic scoring, or background dossiers for employment decisions must comply with FCRA — including the disclosure, pre-adverse action, and adverse action requirements.
Most companies using AI hiring tools don't know they now qualify as consumer reporting agencies. ClearPath solves that by making compliance automatic — even when you didn't know you were on the hook.
The government reminded employers that their obligations under FCRA may extend to employee monitoring, assessment, and AI tools.
Stop hoping your HR team follows the manual. Let an agent watch the process so your company never has to wonder if it did the right thing.
