Contemporary Information Corp

Contemporary Information Corp supplies public-records data and screening reports to rental housing operators, consumer reporting agencies, proptech platforms, banks and insurers. Its core assets are a nationwide criminal records database and a housing court records database, delivered either as finished screening reports or as data through an API.

For rental housing, CIC provides resident screening for multifamily and single-family properties, identity verification that traces reported names and addresses from a Social Security number and cross-references known aliases, and a legal restriction filtering tool for regulatory compliance. Criminal searches cover all 50 states, Washington DC and native tribes, and include the sex offender registry. Housing court data covers unlawful detainers, property damage claims and related judgment information, and is updated daily. Consumer reporting agencies and software platforms license the same data to power their own products, with proprietary heuristic matching applied to results.

CIC has operated since 1986 and holds Nevada Private Investigator License #1588. It reports a multi-jurisdictional criminal database of over 1.8 billion records, 99.98% uptime for its API and delivery as fast as 1.5 seconds per criminal or housing record inquiry. Its research team is US-based and certified, and its information security systems undergo regular third-party testing.

Per-report pricing is not published. The site announces CIC's acquisition by AMCP and the combination of its data with Asurint, and the contact page gives an address in Duluth, Georgia, so a buyer should confirm the contracting entity and support arrangements. The site also gives two different counts for the size of its housing court database, so treat record-volume figures as approximate.
