How this service works
Pay-per-call AI services via the 402 Payment Required protocol. No accounts, no API keys — just USDC on Base.
Output
Returns a JSON object indicating whether the screened name is sanctioned (boolean), a numerical match score (0–1 indicating confidence of a match), and an array of sanctions lists on which the name was found (empty if none).
Example use cases
KYC check for new customer onboarding
“Before we onboard this new client, can you screen 'Amir Khalil' as a person against global sanctions lists and tell me if there's any match?”
Vendor compliance check before payment
“We're about to pay an invoice to 'Meridian Trading LLC' — can you check if that entity is on any sanctions list before we wire the funds?”
Automated counterparty screening in a deal flow
“Screen 'Natasha Volkova' as a person for sanctions before we proceed with the partnership agreement — I need to know if she's flagged and what her match score is.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://agentpay.help/v1/sanctions-screenWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, no-account, pay-per-use sanctions screening API that accepts a name and optional type, and returns an immediate pass/fail result with a match score. Ideal for AI agents automating compliance checks without setting up a full KYC platform subscription. Best for one-off or low-volume checks billed in USDC micropayments.
Side effects
- Missing or empty name field returns a validation error
- Ambiguous or very common names may return low match scores even if a sanctioned individual exists
- Service unavailable or payment failure via x402 returns a 402 Payment Required response
- Name transliterations or alternate spellings may not match sanctioned entries
