You're usually jumping between tabs, copy-pasting names into search bars, and manually tracking who's been screened and who hasn't. This Connector changes that by letting your AI agent do the legwork for you. Instead of navigating a complex dashboard, you just tell your agent what needs to happen. It can pull up search results, update risk levels, and add internal notes to cases as you go. If you're looking for a way to organize these workflows, Vinkius makes it easy to connect this capability to your existing setup. It turns your AI into a compliance teammate that can handle the repetitive stuff like whitelisting entities or checking search history, letting you spend your time on actual risk analysis rather than data entry. ## Tools ### delete_search_tag Remove specific tags from a search to keep your data clean.
