FIR Check APIFIR Verification APIFIR Record Check APIPolice Record Check APILegal Risk Screening API

Organizations use this API to

support background verification workflows

identify FIR-related risk signals

strengthen fraud and risk screening

support lending and onboarding due diligence

The Deepvue FIR Check API helps teams automate FIR-related screening across geographies and records with structured outputs for internal review.

Why FIR-related checks matter

FIR-related checks support workflows like employee BGV, borrower risk review, fraud screening, vendor onboarding, and compliance and due diligence.

Manual FIR-related screening is

hard to scale across geographies

fragmented across records

difficult to audit consistently

Automated screening enables

structured risk-screening outputs

scalable BGV & fraud screening

faster underwriting reviews

What this API enables

The Deepvue FIR Check API enables organizations to:

Run FIR-related searches

screen for FIR-related outputs using name and address inputs

Prioritize review queues

send scored hits to a human first and let clean checks pass without manual effort

Give reviewers enough to act

each hit arrives with jurisdiction and statute context so screeners can escalate or clear it

Strengthen BGV workflows

support employee, gig-worker, and vendor screening

Power fraud risk screening

add legal-risk signals to fraud and risk teams' review queues

Layer into underwriting

add legal-risk signals into lending and credit decisions

How the API works

From identity submission to structured risk-screening output in four steps.

Submit identity inputs

Submit name and address through a secure API request. DOB and father's name can be provided where available.

Run screening

The request is processed through authorized partner integrations and vendor-supported screening mechanisms.

Identify FIR outputs

Potential FIR-related outputs are identified, scored, and structured into risk signals.

Return response

A response is returned for downstream risk, compliance, or BGV workflows.

Outputs should be treated as screening signals and reviewed within broader internal due diligence workflows before any final decision is made.

Name in. FIR risk signals out.

FIR screening designed for BGV, fraud, lending, and compliance pipelines.
