Is Checkr just front-ending the API of other background check services and reselling them?

Intelus offers on-line background checks if you sign up as an "affiliate": http://www.intelius.com/affiliates.php

So does "backgroundchecks.com": http://www.backgroundchecks.com/resellers/apiproducts

There are lots of services in the background check area. Checkr, at $25 per name, is kind of expensive. "backgroundchecks.com" is only $15 if you buy 10 checks.

(I have an API which does background checks on web-based businesses. See
