TraqCheck, an enterprise business that specializes in automating background checks, HR screening, and verification, has raised a bridge investment round, which significantly advances its expansion goals. The firm is now valued at $17 million, however the precise sum is still unknown. Given the growing need for automated HR solutions worldwide, this cash infusion is expected to hasten its growth in India and Europe.

Founders’ Vision: Reinventing HR Processes
TraqCheck was founded by Jaibir Nihal Singh, Armaan Mehta, and Rishabh Jain, who shared a common mission: to challenge the inefficiencies of traditional HR practices using artificial intelligence (AI). Combining their expertise in technology, finance, and business strategy, the trio has rapidly built TraqCheck into one of India’s fastest-growing verification startups. With a sharp focus on automation, the company aims to set a new standard for enterprise-level HR solutions and expand globally.
“Our goal has always been to build an AI-first company that simplifies and accelerates HR processes for enterprises,” says one of the founders. Their strategy has shown strong early success, especially in industries where speed and compliance are crucial.
Strong Backing from Experienced Investors
The recent bridge round was led by Alok Oberoi, Chairman of Everstone Capital, and Siddharth Mehta, Founder of Bay Capital. Joining them was Sivaramakrishnan S. Iyer, Advisor at Bay Capital. All three investors bring decades of experience in private equity, global finance, and asset management. Their involvement not only injects capital but also signals strong market confidence in TraqCheck’s business model and technology.
This strategic round serves as a critical stepping stone toward upcoming institutional financing rounds, expected in the near future, as TraqCheck pursues aggressive scaling.
AI at the Core: Smarter, Faster, and Compliant
At its heart, TraqCheck builds AI-powered agents designed for enterprise-grade background verification. The platform leverages advanced technologies including large language models (LLMs), knowledge graphs, and deterministic frameworks. This allows it to automate processes such as education, employment, identity, and criminal background checks with speed and accuracy.
Traditionally, these processes take weeks to complete. TraqCheck’s system reduces turnaround time to just days or even hours, a game-changer for industries relying on high-volume hiring—think staffing agencies, BFSI, healthcare, and gig economy platforms. By minimizing human error and automating compliance checks, the solution stands out in a market moving steadily toward digital-first HR operations.
Expansion Plans: From India to Europe
The fresh capital will help TraqCheck achieve three main objectives:
- Deepen its presence in India’s growing background verification market.
- Strengthen its position in Europe, where regulatory compliance creates strong demand for automated solutions.
- Introduce new AI-driven HR tools, expanding the product line beyond verification to support enterprise HR processes end-to-end.
Additionally, the company plans to invest in expanding its engineering, product development, and growth teams to manage larger enterprise deployments.
Riding the Wave of Digital HR Transformation
Since its inception, TraqCheck has onboarded over 200 enterprise clients from diverse sectors such as banking, healthcare, retail, and staffing services. The company is also gaining traction in the gig economy, where speed and reliability are critical for background checks.
With remote hiring, gig-based workforces, and increasingly strict compliance requirements becoming the norm, the demand for automation is skyrocketing. TraqCheck publicly targets tripling its revenues by 2025, tapping into the global background-checking industry, which is worth billions and growing steadily.

Competing on a Global Scale
Global behemoths like HireRight, First Advantage, and Checkr are fierce rivals of TraqCheck. However, given that these nations are still underserved in comparison to North America, its AI-first strategy and particular attention to Indian and European markets provide it a competitive edge.
Investors are placing bets on TraqCheck’s capacity to meet enterprise demands for quick, dependable, and legal HR solutions by both speeding up expansion and improving its AI algorithms.
