Documentation

Build the decision. Keep the proof.

Verifex screens a name against sanctions, PEP and entity data and returns an inspectable decision — the sources checked, the candidates, the coverage, and a retrievable Evidence Capsule. Not a score. Start with the path that fits what you are building.

Your first request

Create a key in the dashboard (free accounts include 50 screens each month), then call one endpoint:

curl
curl -X POST https://api.verifex.dev/v1/screen \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer vfx_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": "Alejandro García López", "type": "person", "mode": "broad" }'

You get back a structured decision:

  • the verdict and legacy risk level,
  • coverage_status and whether the candidate set is complete,
  • clearance_eligible — a risk band is never a clearance on its own,
  • an evidence_capsule_id to retrieve the full decision record.

Read the full shape in Reading a response, and why risk is not clearance in Verdicts & clearance.
