## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```

Example prompt: Can you run a sanctions screen on 'Nile Star Trading Ltd' against the OFAC SDN and Consolidated lists and tell me if they come up clean or flagged?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, per-call OFAC sanctions check without a subscription, especially in workflows involving African trade partners, cross-border payments, or vendor onboarding where you need pay-as-you-go compliance screening rather than a full KYC platform.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'name' query parameter returns an error
- Name with special characters may need URL encoding
- OFAC list data may have brief update lag during list refreshes
- Ambiguous or very common names may return false positives requiring manual review

## How this service works

Structured African-currency FX data (official + parallel/street rates from live P2P order books, with history) and business services (Swahili localization, design, consulting, landing pages), sold per call to AI agents. Ni Biashara LLC, Dallas TX.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the queried name, a verdict of CLEAR or MATCH, the number of matches found, an array of matching records (if any), and the list of sanctions lists checked (OFAC SDN and OFAC Consolidated non-SDN).
