License verification
Professional licenses, verified live at the issuing board
63 professions across 51 jurisdictions, one
license claim. We query the board's own system for every check and return status, expiration, multistate privilege, disciplinary actions and the order documents, with the record captured as evidence.What comes back
What a license verification returns
Status and expiration
The board's status vocabulary mapped to active or not, with the original wording kept. Probation is active with a flag.
Learn more
Disciplinary actions
Every action on file with its document, captured as evidence. Recorded and flagged, never silently dropped.
Learn more
Interstate compacts
11 compacts researched: Nurse Licensure Compact, IMLC, PT, PSYPACT, OT, counseling, EMS and more. Multistate privilege is confirmed at the compact's own source.

Strict type matching
A PT claim never matches a PTA license; an RN claim never matches an LPN.

Name-only lookups done honestly
When no license number is given and two people match, the result is ambiguous with the candidates listed, never a guess.

How it works
How license verification works
- 1
Send profession, state and number
Profession keys are national (rn, md, cpa…); we map them to each board's license types.
- 2
Live board lookup
Plain requests where the board allows them, a browser where it needs one. Each source has its own politeness limits.
- 3
Field checks
License number, name, type, status, expiration, actions. One mismatch is a discrepancy.
- 4
Evidence and PDF
The board's response, hashed and timestamped, rendered into the report PDF.
