Sanctions screening API for AI agents

Your agent onboards a supplier, approves a payment or enriches a company list, and you want a sanctions check in the same flow instead of a separate compliance tool. Screening services are sold as annual contracts with their own portals and keys; your agent needs one call it can make per company, paid per call.

On 2 Nov 2026 we screened the name "Sberbank of Russia" with sanctions.screen.company. The run cost $0.02 and returned eight possible matches across three lists: an exact alias match (match_score 1) on PUBLIC JOINT STOCK COMPANY SBERBANK OF RUSSIA on both the OFAC SDN and OFAC Consolidated lists, with programs UKRAINE-EO13662 and RUSSIA-EO14024, the EU entry "Sberbank" with its regulation 2022/1270, and similar-name matches on related banks with scores from 0.8 to 0.9. Every row carries the list, its licence and the date it was last updated (OFAC SDN 28 Oct 2026, OFAC Consolidated 19 Oct 2026, EU 23 Oct 2026 on that day).

Three official lists: the US Treasury OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list, the OFAC Consolidated Non-SDN list and the European Commission's consolidated list of financial sanctions, downloaded from the official sources into Ahel's own registry and checked daily. Only legal entities are matched. A hit is a possible match on the normalized name or a listed alias with a score; it is not identity proof.

It does not screen people: listed individuals, vessels and aircraft are left out, and ownership screening and OFAC's 50 percent rule are not assessed. UN and UK lists are not covered. No match does not clear a company. If a list has not been checked within 48 hours, the screen stops with an error instead of answering no match.

crypto.wallet.screen checks a Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether or other address against the 1,074 digital currency addresses on the OFAC SDN list, $0.02 per match and free when nothing matches; the guide to crypto wallet sanctions screening shows a live run. companies.enrich and the official register tasks in the companies platform give your agent the legal name and country to screen, and companies.check combines identity, status and possible sanctions matches in one sourced report.

sanctions.screen.company and crypto.wallet.screen cost $0.02 per run that finds a possible match, and a screen that finds nothing is free. sanctions.sources.status has no charge, sanctions.entity.get costs $0.002 per record read, and companies.enrich is priced on its task page. Every run is quoted and reserved before it starts, and only the exact cost is charged.
