Why it's hard

Matching names isn't a text comparison

⚖️

An obligation with teeth

Breaching sanctions risks fines and personal liability — regardless of intent.

🔤

Spelling variants & aliases

“Vladimir Putin” appears on the lists in Cyrillic and transliterated too. An exact comparison misses it.

🔄

New entries daily

Every EU package adds entries. The existing base must be re-screened again and again.

How Sanctinel checks

Two stages: find candidates, score cleanly

1

Candidates via full text

A fast pre-selection finds possible hits across the whole name space.

2

Fuzzy scoring

Jaro-Winkler, Levenshtein and phonetics rate similarity — even with typos and transliteration.

3

AI defuses false positives

An AI layer grades unclear hits but never deletes a hit.
