Yardstik Raises $30M for Workforce Trust
Yardstik raised $30M to expand background screening, fraud prevention and workforce-risk tools.
Workforce trust is becoming a more complex enterprise security problem.
What happened
Yardstik raised a $30M Series B led by Harbert Growth Partners, bringing total capital raised to $65M. The company provides background screening, fraud prevention and workforce-risk tools.
Why it matters
Hiring fraud, synthetic identities and AI-generated credentials make one-time background checks less reliable. Employers increasingly need tools that assess trust before and after hiring.
Yardstik sits at the intersection of workforce compliance, fraud prevention and enterprise risk.
The bigger picture
As AI changes hiring and identity verification, companies will need more continuous trust infrastructure. Screening is becoming less of a one-off check and more of an ongoing risk workflow.
