Description

Shufti screens people, companies, vessels, aircraft and crypto wallets against 215+ sanctions regimes and 3,500+ watchlists, refreshed every 15 minutes. Phonetic, transliteration and fuzzy matching catch aliases across 80+ languages and non-Latin scripts, and you tune the match score from 0 to 100% to cut false positives. Upload internal blacklists by CSV or API. Re-screening runs every 24 hours, alerting by webhook when a cleared entity is listed. Every check logs the score, list and source.

Could you build this?

No Sanctions screening requires continuous ingestion of global government databases, specialized cross-lingual fuzzy matching across non-Latin scripts, and enterprise-grade regulatory compliance certifications.

What it would actually take: A compliant sanctions screening engine requires ETL pipelines pulling from hundreds of government watchlists (OFAC, UN, EU) every 15 minutes with audit logging. The core matching engine uses specialized NLP, phonetic algorithms (Double Metaphone, Soundex), transliteration across 80+ languages (Arabic, Cyrillic, Chinese), and graph databases for crypto wallet and entity clustering. Building this requires deep AML/KYC compliance expertise, legal verification, and high-availability enterprise infrastructure.
