About

At Faster DBS, we had one simple goal when we started:
make DBS checks faster, easier, and completely stress-free for employers.

After years of seeing organisations struggle with slow paperwork, confusing guidance, and outdated systems, we set out to build something better – a platform designed from the ground up to eliminate every delay possible.

🚀 Built for Speed

From day one, we focused on streamlining the DBS process. That meant:

• Removing unnecessary steps
• Reducing errors that cause avoidable delays
• Automating manual checks where possible
• Building an interface that’s simple for applicants and employers

Every feature we add has a single aim:
Cut the time between submitting a DBS check and receiving the certificate.

⚙️ A System Designed to Stay Out of Your Way

We built Faster DBS to solve the biggest pain points employers face:

• Slow, complicated forms
• Rejected applications due to tiny mistakes
• Paper-based ID verification
• Lack of real-time updates
• Waiting days for someone to manually review submissions

Our platform removes these issues by using:

• Intelligent form validation
• ID checks
• Direct integration with the UK Government Gateway
• Real-time email updates
• Same-day processing for completed applications submitted before our cut-off time

The result is a smoother, cleaner, faster experience – for both you and your applicants.

👥 A Team That Understands the Process

We come from backgrounds in recruitment, compliance, and software development, so we understand how essential DBS checks are, and how frustrating delays can be.

That’s why every improvement we make goes back to the same question:
“Does this help organisations get staff into work faster?”

If the answer isn’t yes, we don’t build it.

🔍 Focused on Accuracy, Trusted for Reliability

Speed means nothing without accuracy.
Our system ensures every application is reviewed, validated, and prepared correctly before being submitted to the DBS to help prevent rejections, cancellations, and unnecessary back-and-forth.

🌐 The Future of DBS Checks

We’re continuously refining our platform, adding new automation tools, improving turnaround times, and removing the last remaining bottlenecks that slow employers down.

For us, “fast” isn’t a bonus –
it’s the whole point.
