How this service works
Web read / URL to markdown (batch, JavaScript rendering), PDF text extraction, website change monitoring, prompt-injection check and sanctions screening for agents. From $0.001 per call on Base. x402 USDC, no API key.
Output
Returns a JSON object with an 'ok' boolean, a disclaimer label ('screening aid, not legal advice'), a result status (e.g. 'exact_match', 'no_match'), a 'match_count' integer, and a 'matches' array. Each match includes the sanctions list name (e.g. 'UK', 'OFAC'), matched entity name, entity type, a numeric match score (0–1), the match strength ('exact', 'fuzzy'), the matched field (e.g. 'primary_name'), relevant sanctions programs, and a source identifier.
Example use cases
Onboarding counterparty compliance check
“Before we proceed with this supplier, can you screen 'Global Trade Partners Ltd' based in Iran against all sanctions lists and tell me if there are any matches?”
Individual sanctions check for KYC
“I need to do a sanctions check on a person named 'Sergei Ivanov', born 1950-01-13, Russian national — can you run that through the sanctions database and tell me the results?”
Automated pre-payment sanctions verification
“We're about to send a payment to 'Mahan Air' — can you quickly check whether they're on any sanctions list before we approve the transaction?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.agentwork.run/v1/compliance/sanctions-screen?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs a lightweight, pay-per-call sanctions screen without managing API keys or subscriptions. Ideal for agentic workflows that need to verify counterparties, individuals, or entities against international sanctions lists (UK, OFAC, EU, etc.) on-demand at $0.01 per call via USDC x402. Best when you need structured match results with scores rather than a full KYC/AML platform integration.
Side effects
- Missing required 'name' query parameter returns an error
- Unknown or misspelled entity type may reduce match quality
- Names with transliteration variants may produce fuzzy or missed matches
- Service returns a disclaimer that results are a 'screening aid, not legal advice' — not a definitive legal determination
- Payment failure via x402 protocol will block the request
- Very common names may return high false-positive match counts
