The Problem Every Recruiting Team Knows
The offer is out. The candidate said yes. And now the hiring process stalls — because background verification lives in a separate tool that someone has to log into, manually initiate, and then chase for updates.
It’s not a workflow problem. It’s a tool fragmentation problem. Your ATS has the candidate. Your BGV platform has the check. Nothing talks to each other. So your team does the talking — back and forth, across tabs, every single time.
That’s what this integration fixes.
SpringVerify has built a native integration with Ashby ATS — the all-in-one recruiting platform used by companies like Notion, Ramp, Shopify, and Linear. The integration connects both platforms through an API key generated directly inside Ashby.
Once connected, here’s what your recruiting team can do:
Initiate a background check on any candidate directly from the Ashby interface. No separate login needed.
Check verification status without switching platforms. Progress updates come back into Ashby automatically.
Completed BGV reports are pushed back into the Ashby platform. No manual downloads or email forwarding.
The setup requires an API key from Ashby. The entire process takes under 10 minutes.

The average recruiter manages 20–30 open roles at any given time. Each role touches multiple tools: an ATS, a scheduling platform, an offer management system, and a BGV tool. Every context switch costs time — and in high-volume hiring, those minutes add up fast.
Background verification is often the last bottleneck before a candidate joins. An ATS integration removes the manual handoff that slows it down — without changing how either platform works.
Beyond speed, there’s an accuracy argument. When BGV is triggered manually — someone copies candidate details, logs into a separate portal, re-enters information — errors creep in. An integrated flow pulls candidate data directly from Ashby, reducing the risk of mismatched names, wrong dates, or missing fields that create insufficiencies later.
This integration is built for any team that uses Ashby as their primary ATS and SpringVerify for background verification. It’s particularly useful for:
Yes. Any SpringVerify client who also uses Ashby as their ATS can enable this integration. Setup requires generating an API key from within Ashby and connecting it to your SpringVerify account.
Yes. Once a check is initiated from Ashby, status updates and completed reports are pushed back into the Ashby platform automatically — no need to log into SpringVerify to check progress.
All standard SpringVerify checks — employment, education, identity, address, criminal, and reference — can be initiated through the Ashby integration based on your configured verification packages.
Under 10 minutes. You generate an API key in Ashby, enter it in SpringVerify, and the integration goes live immediately.
Yes. SpringVerify is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and ISO 27701 certified. All data exchanged between Ashby and SpringVerify is encrypted in transit and handled in compliance with data privacy regulations.
