Screen policyholders, beneficiaries, claimants and distribution partners against 100+ sanctions, PEP and watchlists. All in one API call, inside the bind flow, in under 500 ms.
These are the specific failure modes we see in carriers, insurtechs and MGAs distributing through digital channels.
If the check runs overnight, the policy is already issued and the premium already taken. Remediating a bound policy is a regulatory event; declining a quote is not.
Beneficiaries, claimants, payees, lienholders and premium-finance counterparties sit outside most onboarding checks, and that's where payout-stage breaches happen.
Every embedded partner, MGA and broker binding on a carrier's paper inherits the screening duty and regulators request evidence for compliance.
Your exposure might require to screen or monitor against various watchlists from different jurisdictions. Screening is only as good as the worst list you skip.
Six statements. Answer honestly. The grade is only useful if the gaps are real.
Millions of live policies re-screened as lists move, with a webhook the moment a policyholder or beneficiary is designated, plus an audit export per market.
A screening call fast enough to live inside checkout. No redirect, no queue, no growth team asking to switch it off before the next funding round.
Binding authority comes with a screening obligation you have to demonstrate. Every decision timestamped against the list version used, exportable on request.
Sub-500 ms p95 against 100+ sanctions, PEP and watchlists. Fast enough to sit inside the quote flow, not behind it.
Lists refresh hourly. The in-force portfolio is re-screened automatically and a webhook fires the moment a policyholder or beneficiary is designated.
Arabic, Cyrillic and Chinese name variants scored consistently, with an adjustable threshold so you decide where auto-clear ends and review begins.
Every hit, clear and override is timestamped with the list snapshot used, exportable to CSV or JSON per market.

How screening programmes are built, tuned and defended: list selection across OFAC, EU, UN and HMT/OFSI, thresholds you can defend in an examination, false-positive management, and the evidence examiners ask for.
The evaluation criteria that actually separate providers: list coverage and refresh cadence, match-quality benchmarking, latency under load, data residency, and the commercial terms that bite at volume. Includes an RFP question set.
The one-pager procurement and IT ask for: full list inventory, refresh cadence, endpoint reference, latency and uptime figures, security posture, data residency and deployment options.
