Our take
Lenders and landlords might get in touch with employers to verify an employee’s income - but until recently, it was still a fairly manual process. Truework is looking to change that, with a plug-in for HR systems that allows departments to instantly answer and verify income queries. It also offers pre-employment background checks for U.S. citizens.
It’s a simple tool, but it’s one that will save HR departments substantial amounts of time and labor costs. With HR departments busier than ever, and with companies on the whole sinking more of their budgets into bolstering them, this could create a strong market for Truework.
What’s a strong market for Truework, however, is a strong market for its income verification startup rivals too - and they’re performing well. Tink has recently been acquired by VISA, and Pinwheel and Argyle are both attracting good funding.
Some reports suggest that this is because increasing market uncertainty is pushing lenders to invest more in optimizing loan approvals. If this persists, it’s one more thing massaging an already lucrative market niche in which Truework has firmly established itself and raised investment of almost $123 million to date.
