How to recheck an AgentProof certificate

Recheck is an optional ~3 minute check: one live task from your results. A good pass sets Last checked on the same certificate and the same verify URL. It never raises or lowers your level. A weak recheck changes nothing; wait 24 hours before you try again.

Recheck vs full assessment

How to start a recheck

  1. Open your results after you have earned a certificate.
  2. Choose recheck / renew.
  3. Complete one live task with the AI tools you already use (vendor neutral).
  4. If you pass, the verify page gains or updates Last checked. Your earned date and level stay the same.

What a good recheck does

On a pass:

  • Sets Last checked on the same certificate
  • Keeps the same verify URL
  • Leaves earned date and level unchanged
  • Does not create a second badge or a public level history

Safe-use rating is separate. Recheck does not invent a new public safe-use story on the verify page. Safe-use overview: Safe use of AI at work.

What a weak recheck does

On a weak result:

  • Nothing changes on the verify page
  • Wait 24 hours before you try again
  • Your certificate stays valid (it does not expire)

You do not lose the certificate. You do not drop a level. You simply retry later if you want a Last checked date.

If you want a higher level

Recheck will not raise your level. Take the full assessment with a new invite. That issues a new certificate ID and a new /v/{id}. The old verify URL stays as it was unless you hide it from results. Levels: levels glossary. Scoring: How scoring works.

Why recheck

Use recheck when:

  • You want a fresher Last checked date for hiring or a client
  • You want to confirm you can still pass a live task with tools you use today
  • Your company asks for a recent check (their cadence, not an AgentProof expiration)

The certificate itself does not expire and has no renewal fee. Individuals recheck free.
