OneCredential verifies that a business is real, active, and operating legally—using AI-powered checks, document analysis, and public data. Because trust starts with knowing who you’re doing business with.
What is business verification?
Digital business verification confirms the legal identity, registration status, and legitimacy of a company.
It’s the modern alternative to relying on PDFs, spreadsheets, or self-attested forms like W-9s.
Why it’s critical
1 in 4 vendor profiles in procurement systems contain incomplete or unverified data
Fraudulent companies often register fake names, use inactive EINs, or operate without required licenses
Legacy certification and onboarding processes rely heavily on unverified self-reporting
DEI, ESG, and financial compliance standards now demand documented due diligence

How it works
01
Basic info input
User submits legal business name, EIN, address, website, and entity type.
02
Public record validation
We pull records from public data sources (SOS, IRS, global databases) to confirm entity details and status.
03
Website & digital footprint check
We verify the website exists, matches the business name, and isn’t a generic placeholder or red flag.
04
Document upload (if flagged)
If public record match fails or extra validation is needed, we prompt for docs like incorporation records.
05
Risk scan & final review
Business is screened for red flags, fraud patterns, and inconsistencies before issuing a verified status.
