Use trained AI models to identify and classify news based on more than 60 criminal offenses.

Extract and analyze key data

Identify individuals and/or companies in the news, including contextual details like age, profession, location and role (e.g., suspect, arrested, accomplice, etc.).

Relevance and risk scoring

Match individuals or companies in the news with your customer database and assess severity using customized scoring rules.

Sanction screening

Identify sanctioned individuals or entities by augmenting controls of global watchlists (ONU, UE, OFAC, etc.) to block access to financial services in accordance with applicable sanctions laws and regulations.

PEP checks

Enhance due diligence efforts and decision making by conducting PEP checks by and screening third-party data to flag individuals with political influence or close associations to assess potential corruption or abuse of power risks.

Automatic alerts, summary and reports
