Modern AI screening vs. legacy enterprise processes
Sterling is a legacy enterprise background screening provider with decades of history. While they serve large enterprises, their platform reflects outdated technology — slow turnaround times, clunky interfaces, and manual processes that don't leverage modern AI capabilities. VerifAI delivers enterprise-grade screening with the speed and intelligence of modern AI.

Sterling's legacy processes mean waiting 3-7 days for standard checks. VerifAI's AI-powered platform delivers 85% of results within 1 hour, so you can extend offers the same day.
Sterling's enterprise pricing includes hidden fees and charges for features that should be standard. VerifAI's transparent pricing gives you more features at a fraction of the cost.
Sterling's interface looks like it was designed in 2010. VerifAI's modern dashboard is intuitive, requires zero training, and provides real-time status updates your team will actually enjoy using.
Sterling implementations can take weeks or months. VerifAI gets you screening in minutes with self-service setup, pre-built ATS integrations, and guided onboarding.
"After 8 years with Sterling, switching to VerifAI felt like going from a flip phone to a smartphone. The AI recommendations alone save our HR team 15 hours per week. We should have switched years ago."
