Sanctions Screening

POST /v1/compliance/sanctions

The deterministic gate an agent calls before it onboards, pays, ships to, or contracts with a counterparty. Names are normalized (diacritics, punctuation, org suffixes) and matched against a bundled OFAC snapshot by exact name, alias, and token-sorted Jaro-Winkler similarity. No network calls — the lists ship with the tool — and every verdict carries a tamper-evident certificate.

Capabilities

  • OFAC SDN + Consolidated lists, matched by name and alias
  • Exact, alias, and fuzzy (token-sorted Jaro-Winkler) matching
  • PASS / FLAG / BLOCK with per-match score, program, and jurisdiction
  • Filter by list and entity type; tunable fuzzy threshold
  • Deterministic and offline, with a SHA-256 certificate

Use cases

  • KYC / onboarding agents screening new customers or vendors
  • Payments and payouts: block transfers to sanctioned parties
  • Marketplaces, logistics, and hiring — restricted-party checks
  • A pre-flight compliance gate with an audit certificate
