Sanctions screening is not enough. Every decision needs evidence.
Verifex helps regulated teams screen people, companies, and counterparties against sanctions and watchlists — and preserves structured, reviewable evidence behind every match and every clear decision.
The problem
Screening is not the hard part. Proving the decision is.
Most compliance tools return a match result. Regulators, auditors, and banking partners ask a harder question: what did you check, which list version was active, why was the match cleared, and who approved it?
Fragmented screening tools
Teams stitch together multiple vendors, spreadsheets, and manual checks. No single source of truth for what was screened, when, and why.
False positives without clear adjudication
High false-positive rates drain compliance capacity. Without structured match rationale, teams cannot explain why a name was cleared.
Weak audit evidence when regulators ask
Months after a screening, teams struggle to reconstruct the decision context. List versions, match scores, and reviewer actions are lost.
Product flow
From raw name to audit-ready decision.
Input
Entity name, identifier, or batch list
Normalize
Transliteration, token parsing, alias resolution
Screen
Multi-source match against configured lists
Resolve
Identity confidence vs source severity scoring
Adjudicate
Recommendation based on policy thresholds
Preserve
Structured evidence capsule per decision
Monitor
Continuous re-screening and change alerts
Core platform
Compliance infrastructure in one API.
Sanctions Screening
Screen people and companies against global sanctions and watchlists. Source severity and identity confidence returned as separate fields.
PEP & Watchlist Context
Identify politically exposed persons and high-risk list exposure. PEP hits signal enhanced due diligence, not automatic blocks.
Entity Resolution
Resolve aliases, transliterations, spelling variants, and duplicate entities across scripts and naming conventions.
Audit Trail
Preserve point-in-time screening evidence, list versions, match scores, and reviewer decisions in a retrievable capsule.
UBO / GLEIF
Add legal entity context and ownership-chain visibility where GLEIF data is available. OFAC 50% Rule direction for sanctions exposure.
Continuous Monitoring
Re-screen entities when lists change and trigger webhook alerts. Review deltas without re-running full workflows.
KYB Dossiers
Generate Turkey & Azerbaijan company verification dossiers with official-source evidence, sanctions screening, and structured delivery.
Webhooks & API
Integrate screening, monitoring, and evidence retrieval into your product via REST API with structured JSON responses.
Audit evidence
Every decision should leave proof.
Verifex is built for teams that need to explain decisions months or years later. Every screening preserves the context needed for compliance review: query input, list versions active at screening time, match rationale, and reviewer action.
- Query input and normalized entity
- List versions active at screening time
- Match score and algorithm version
- Adjudication recommendation
- Reviewer action and timestamp
- Retrievable by audit ID

}Ownership-control risk
Risk can hide behind ownership.
A company may not appear on a sanctions list and still create sanctions exposure through ownership or control. Verifex is expanding screening beyond names into ownership-chain context and OFAC 50% Rule risk workflows.
- GLEIF-based legal entity context
- Ownership-chain visualization
- OFAC 50% Rule direction
- Manual-enhanced reports where official data is limited
Note: UBO automation coverage varies by jurisdiction. Where official registries are incomplete, Verifex supplements with manual-enhanced reports and clear confidence flags.
