How Verihaus Works

Local verification, from request to field evidence.

Verihaus helps companies collect practical local evidence before they pay, onboard, insure, finance, approve or escalate. We review the request, confirm the possible scope, provide the final price for approval, assign a local field agent where available, and deliver a clear report with photos, observations, red flags and limitations.

The process

Five steps from request to report

Every case starts with scope review. We confirm feasibility, expected evidence, timeline and final price before assigning a local field agent. No field work starts until you approve the scope and quote.

1

Send the request

Tell us what needs to be verified, where it is located and what decision you need to make.

2

Scope review

We check feasibility, access conditions, evidence needs, timing and possible limitations.

3

Quote approval

You receive the final price, timeline and scope. Field work starts only after approval.

4

Local field visit

A local field agent visits the stated address or site and documents visible facts where permitted.

5

Report delivery

You receive photos, observations, red flags, limitations and a clear field summary or report.

Final price before field work starts

The price shown on the pricing page is a starting price. Your final quote is confirmed after scope review and before any local field agent is assigned. You approve the scope, timeline and price first — then the field visit begins.

01

Send us the verification request

Start with the basic facts: the location, the company or site name, the type of verification needed and the business decision behind the request. The more context we receive, the better we can define a useful field scope.

  • Company, supplier, factory, asset, shipment or damage case
  • Exact address, city and country where possible
  • Documents, screenshots, invoices, photos or details to compare against
  • The decision you need to make after receiving the evidence
03

You approve the quote before assignment

After scope review, you receive the confirmed offer. It includes the verification scope, expected deliverables, timeline, price and key limitations. The local field visit starts only after you approve the quote.

  • Confirmed verification package and deliverables
  • Final price before work starts
  • Expected timeline and visit conditions
  • Known limitations or access assumptions
04

A local field agent documents visible facts

Where the case is accepted and approved, a local agent visits the stated location and documents what is visible. Depending on access and local conditions, this may include exterior photos, entrance signs, loading areas, goods, equipment, visible activity, damage or surrounding context.

  • Address and location confirmation
  • Photos of visible exterior or accessible areas
  • Live activity indicators such as people, loading, goods or equipment
  • Visible red flags, access issues or inconsistencies
05

You receive a clear report for decision-making

The final output depends on the chosen scope. A simple Presence Check may include photos and a short field summary. Field Evidence and Evidence Plus include structured PDF reporting with observations, limitations, red flags and decision-support notes.

  • Photos and visible field observations
  • Comparison with supplied details where applicable
  • Red flags, inconsistencies and open items
  • Clear limitations: what was not visible or not verified

Before we start

What we need from you

You do not need to prepare a complex dossier. But a few practical details help us scope the request correctly, confirm the final price and avoid wasted field work.

Location details

Address, city, country, site name or any available location references.

Supplied information

Documents, invoices, screenshots, photos, company details or claims to compare.

Business context

Why the check is needed: payment, onboarding, insurance, investment or approval.

Timing requirements

Urgency, deadline, preferred visit window and any access constraints.

What you receive

Evidence that is structured, practical and decision-ready

Verihaus reports are designed for business teams that need more than a verbal confirmation. We show what was visible, what was documented, what matched the supplied information and what still needs caution.

  • Time-stamped or visit-context field photos where available
  • Visible activity indicators and site observations
  • Comparison with supplied information where applicable
  • Red flags, access issues and open questions
  • Clear limitations and recommended follow-up actions for higher-tier reports

What Verihaus does — and what we do not replace

Field verification is powerful because it adds local evidence. But it is not the same as a certified audit, legal due diligence or formal technical inspection.

What we do

  • Verify visible physical presence at a location
  • Document accessible areas with photos or video where permitted
  • Observe activity indicators such as goods, people, loading or equipment
  • Compare visible facts with supplied details
  • Report red flags, limitations and open questions clearly

What we do not replace

  • Certified technical audits or regulatory inspections
  • Legal opinions or full legal due diligence
  • Insurance loss adjusting or formal claims decisions
  • Product testing, laboratory checks or formal certification
  • Guaranteed fraud detection or formal asset valuation

FAQ

Common questions about the verification process

These answers help procurement, finance, insurance, logistics and compliance teams understand what to expect before requesting a local field check.

When do I receive the final price?

You receive the final price after scope review and before any field work starts. We confirm the scope, timeline, deliverables and price first. A local field agent is assigned only after you approve the quote.

How long does a verification usually take?

Timing depends on the country, city, access conditions, urgency and scope. Simple checks may be faster, while remote locations, sensitive sites or detailed reports may require more time. We confirm the expected timeline after scope review.

Can Verihaus verify any location worldwide?

Verihaus can support many countries and cities through local field agents and partners. While we currently have agents in more than 130 countries, coverage is not automatic everywhere. Often our agents can travel to the facilities outside of their cities. If necessary, agents can also travel to remote areas. We confirm local availability before accepting the case.

Can the local agent enter a facility?

Access depends on permission, safety, local rules and the cooperation of the site. If accessing the facility is a must, we expect you you to provide a permission for our agent to enter the facility. When interior access is not possible, the report will clearly state what was visible from outside or from accessible areas.

Is this the same as an audit or legal due diligence?

No. Verihaus provides field documentation and visible-fact verification. We do not replace certified audits, legal opinions, insurance loss adjusting, product testing or formal regulatory inspections.
