Why this exists

Built for hostile input

A Turkish address arrives as "Cd." or "Cad." or "Caddesi", with the flat number glued to the building number. Generic parsers drop half of it silently. This one tells you what it could not place.

History cannot be backfilled

The exchange-rate archive grows every business day and each point keeps its source URL and content hash. A competitor can read today’s bulletin too — nobody can produce last quarter’s.

You only pay for work

Repeated inputs come from cache and cost zero credits. If a response ever fails its own schema, the call is refunded automatically.

/v1/sanctions/screen Sanctions & PEP Screening 5 credits

Screens a name against the US OFAC, UN Security Council and EU consolidated sanctions lists with transliteration-aware fuzzy matching.

Cyrillic and Arabic names are transliterated, titles and corporate suffixes are stripped, and known spelling families are unified — "Abd al-Rahman", "Abdul Rahman" and "Abdulrahman" reach the same record. Every hit explains itself: which name matched, whether it was an alias the source flags as weak, and how the birth year and country compared. Supply `birthYear` whenever you have it; it removes most false positives. `asOf` screens against the lists as they stood on a past date, which is the question auditors actually ask — note that this is bounded by when our archive begins, reported in `coverage`.

Parameters

name*	string	Name to screen — person or organisation.
type	"any" \| "individual" \| "entity" \| "vessel" \| "aircraft"	Restrict to one subject type. Narrowing this removes most false positives. default "any"
birthYear	integer	Known birth year. The single strongest false-positive filter available.
country	string	Known country or nationality.
sources	"OFAC_SDN" \| "UN" \| "EU"[]	Defaults to all lists.
minScore	number	Score floor. 0.92+ reads as a match, 0.80+ as possible. default 0.75
limit	integer	default 10
asOf	string	Screen against the lists as they stood on this date. Limited by when our archive begins.
