}One Call, All 8 Lists
A single POST returns every match with its score, the list it came from, and the alias it matched on, so your own code can decide inline. Pass limit to take only the highest-scoring few; total_matches still reports the real total.
Fuzzy Matching
Catches name variations, alternate spellings, and transliterations that exact-match APIs miss.
Batch Endpoint
Screen up to 100 names per request, on every plan. That is a per-request ceiling on the API and not the CSV upload limit: a batch file in the dashboard takes far more rows per file, and how many rises with your plan.
Daily Updates
All 8 sanctions lists refreshed automatically every day. Always screen against the latest data.
Audit Trail
Every API call is written to the same audit trail as your web searches: the name, the time, and whether it matched, exportable as CSV.
Secure & Reliable
Bearer token auth, rate limiting, HTTPS-only. Built for production workloads.
API
API Pricing
