FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is batch sanctions screening?
Batch sanctions screening is the process of checking a large volume of entities (individuals or companies) against sanctions and watchlists simultaneously, rather than screening them one by one in real-time.
How many names can be checked in a batch?
The Verifex Batch API is designed to handle thousands of entities per request. The exact limit depends on your plan tier and infrastructure configuration.
How are false positives handled in batch screening?
Verifex applies the same rigorous fuzzy matching and contextual scoring to batch checks as it does to real-time queries. This reduces false positives at scale, allowing your team to focus only on high-confidence matches.
Can batch results be exported?
Yes, you can retrieve the full structured JSON for the batch, or use our platform to export summary reports and individual evidence PDFs for audit purposes.
