Time back on every file
Most of the time on a file goes to the tooling around the enquiry rather than the enquiry itself. intelID takes that part off you.
One account, one invoice
An enquiry across a credit bureau, the Companies Office, a title search and the PPSR would normally mean four accounts and four invoice lines. Here it is one login and one monthly account.
One consolidated audit trail
Every search across every source is logged in one place, against the user and the declared purpose. If a client, a regulator or a data provider asks, the record is already there.
Results already reconciled
Names, addresses and entities are matched across sources and returned in one consistent format, so the time goes on reading the result rather than assembling it.
What you can search
One interface across the licensed sources a New Zealand enquiry actually needs.
Skip tracing, person locate and address history
Trace a subject across directory and credit-linked address data, with current and previous addresses and the dates each was recorded.
Identity verification
Confirm that the person in front of you is the person on the file.
Company and director
Registrations, directors, shareholders and filing history from the Companies Office.
Property and title
Certificates of title, ownership, encumbrances and sales history.
Security interests (PPSR)
Registered security interests over personal property.
Insolvency
Bankruptcy, no-asset procedures, debt repayment orders and company insolvency events.
Social and digital footprint
Social media, phone number, username and email tracing that returns linked accounts, platform registrations, aliases and the contact points registered against them.
How it works
Three steps, in this order, on every enquiry.
01
Verified account
We check your identity, your organisation and your licence or professional registration before an account is issued. There is no self-service signup.
02
Declare the authorised purpose
Each search requires the user to declare the lawful purpose for that specific enquiry before any result is returned.
03
Consolidated result, full audit record
Matched records from every licensed source are returned together, and the query, the user, the time and the declared purpose are written to the audit log.
Who it is for
Access is limited to professionals with a lawful, declarable reason to search.
Private investigators
Skip tracing, asset enquiry and background work with an audit record on every search.
Law firms and legal professionals
Pre-litigation asset position, identity confirmation and address for service.
Credit and collections
Locate the debtor, test recovery viability and close unrecoverable files early.
Insurance, claims and risk
Identity, ownership, security interests and related entities on a claim file.
Corporate risk and compliance
Counterparty checks, ownership tracing and enhanced due diligence with evidence.
Process servers
Confirm a current address before an agent is instructed, and evidence the attempt.
Compliance and security
Regulators and data providers hold you to the same standard whichever tool you use. intelID is built so that standard is met on every query, by every user, without relying on anyone remembering.
Privacy Act 2020 compliant
Collection, use, disclosure and retention are handled against the information privacy principles.
Credit Reporting Privacy Code 2020 aligned
Credit data is handled under the Code, including its access and purpose restrictions.
Authorised-purpose declaration
Every search requires the user to declare the authorised purpose before results are returned.
Full audit logging
Every query is recorded against the user, the time and the declared purpose, and retained.
Role-based access control
Sources and functions are granted by role, not handed to everyone in the organisation.
Encryption in transit and at rest
Hosted on Google Cloud Platform, with a vendor security programme benchmarked to SOC 2 Type II providers. Some processing or support may occur outside New Zealand, under safeguards comparable to the Privacy Act 2020 in accordance with Information Privacy Principle 12.
No marketing use. No resale. No public indexing of subject data. Read the full compliance and security position.
Built around how enquiries are run
intelID was designed by people who run enquiries for a living, so the workflow follows the order the work happens in: identify the subject, confirm the address and contact points, establish the asset position, and record what was done and why.
Common questions
Can I sign up online?
No. There is no self-service signup and no instant trial. Access is granted after we verify your identity, your organisation and the authorised purpose for which you intend to search.
Who is allowed to hold an account?
Vetted, authorised users only: PSPLA-licensed private investigators, law firms and legal professionals, debt recovery and collections firms, finance companies, insurers and credit providers, corporate risk, fraud, AML/CFT and compliance teams, and process serving firms.
Can I use intelID for skip tracing in New Zealand?
Yes. Skip tracing is one of the most common uses. A single search returns credit-linked and directory address history, contact confirmation, company and director links, property and title records, security interests and digital footprint results, so you can locate a subject and confirm the address before you serve or recover. Skip tracing is only available for a declared authorised purpose, and every search is logged.
Which data sources does a search cover?
Licensed New Zealand sources: Equifax, Centrix, MBIE and the Companies Office, LINZ property and title data, the PPSR, insolvency and bankruptcy registers, and advanced digital footprint tracing across social media, phone numbers, usernames and email addresses.
What is an authorised-purpose declaration?
Before results are returned, the user selects and declares the lawful purpose for that specific search. The declaration is recorded against the query, the user and the time it was run.
What is recorded about my searches?
Every query is logged in full against the user who ran it and the purpose declared for it. The audit log is retained and can be produced if a search is ever questioned by a client, a regulator or a data provider.
How does intelID handle the Privacy Act 2020 and the Credit Reporting Privacy Code 2020?
Collection, use, disclosure and retention are handled against the information privacy principles, and credit data is handled under the Credit Reporting Privacy Code 2020, including its access and purpose restrictions. There is no marketing use, no resale and no public indexing of subject data.
Where is the platform hosted and how is data protected?
intelID is hosted on Google Cloud Platform, with encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access control, and a vendor security programme benchmarked to SOC 2 Type II providers. Some processing or support may occur outside New Zealand, under safeguards comparable to the Privacy Act 2020 in accordance with Information Privacy Principle 12.
What does it cost?
Solo is $49 per month plus GST for one user. Team is $99 per month plus GST for up to three users, then $25 per month plus GST for each additional user, to a maximum of ten users. Enterprise covers more than ten users. On top of the seat fee you pay only for the searches you run, charged per query at the rate set by the source being queried, so a quiet month costs you close to nothing. Query rates are confirmed when your account is approved. Every plan requires a verified, approved account.
