Fastkey is a Canadian platform that streamlines background checks, identity verification, and financial screening for businesses and individuals. It addresses the need for compliant, efficient vetting of employees, tenants, clients, or applicants by replacing manual processes with a digital workflow that handles document collection and verification.

The platform offers several screening modules, including Standard and Enhanced Criminal Record Checks via the Canadian Police Information Centre, Equifax Credit Bureau Checks, Biometric Identity Verification with AML/PEP screening, and Canada Revenue Agency document retrieval. It integrates with Zapier and Make for no-code automation, and provides a REST API with webhooks for custom connections. A Zoho CRM integration is listed as coming soon.

Fastkey is designed for HR professionals, property managers, landlords, lawyers, and mortgage brokers. The service is billed monthly with transparent, per-check pricing; no free plan or trial is mentioned on the provided pages.
