Care about the rules and people.

Respect ensures the integrity of address databases, both residential and business. We make sure students belong to school districts and bank accounts have legitimate records. We also offer home data management, which protects both homeowners and renters from fraud, waste, and danger.

Thorough, ethical, and low cost.

Respect's residency verification focuses on the address, not the individual's background history. We combine algorithms with manual techniques to determine residential or business status. Our process is more accurate and more mindful of privacy.

    Human review and judgement

    Human review and judgement

    Every potential violation of rules is checked and verified by a human expert. Detailed rationale for each flagged address is provided.

These are problems we solve.

  • Manual paperwork exchange
  • Costly administrative burden
  • Hard-to-use verification sites
  • Privacy risk of sensitive data
  • Addresses outside of bounds
  • Mailing-only addresses
  • Businesses claimed as homes
  • Nonexistent addresses
  • Vacant or unusable locations
  • Mixed-use ambiguities

Respect is ideal for verifying hundreds of thousands of addresses at low cost (in terms of both money and privacy) and few false positives. Databases of millions of addresses should be preprocessed by automated methods. If more rigorous verification is required, then traditional private investigation should be additionally utilized.
