sanctions.io

sanctions.io is a sanctions and AML screening and monitoring platform that helps businesses check customers, counterparties, and payments against global sanctions lists, politically exposed persons (PEP) data, and adverse media. It's built to be effective and reliable, and it runs inside decision flows through a well-documented API with an average response time of 350ms, a web-based user portal, or native Salesforce, HubSpot, and Shopify integrations. sanctions.io stands out for its transparent, simple pricing, effective false positive reduction, and strong documentation and customer support.

With the sanctions.io integration, Oscilar users can add sanctions, PEP, and adverse media screening as a step in any workflow: at onboarding, at the point of transaction, during periodic customer reviews, or through continuous monitoring, where parties are re-screened the moment a list changes.

To reduce false positives, sanctions.io uses a smart name-matching engine built on machine learning and natural language processing. It handles transliteration, phonetic similarity, and many other name-matching challenges, and some customers have seen false positives drop by up to 95%. Configurable fuzzy matching and adjustable confidence thresholds for sanctions, PEP, and adverse media screening help compliance teams tune sensitivity to their risk profile.

Every screen is also recorded in an automated audit trail, so external auditors, regulators, and internal reviewers can see exactly what was screened, which lists it was checked against, what the result was, and more. The full trail can be downloaded as a PDF.

sanctions.io is GDPR compliant and SOC 2 Type II certified, offers a 99.995% uptime guarantee, and already runs millions of screens daily for more than 400 customers.
