Short answer

How can I use my AI for aml sanctions screening?

Your AI uses SEON to run user details against global watchlists. It identifies matches and reports the specific monitors triggered so you can review the results. You'll see exactly where hits occur and which users need attention.

Compliance outcomes

Where screening results land.

The AI categorizes every check based on the watchlist data it finds.

MATCH

Sanctions hits identified

The AI flags users who appear on global watchlists. You get the specific reason for the match and the monitor name.

CLEAR

Clean user profiles

Users who pass all checks are marked as safe. This lets you move them through onboarding without manual intervention.

REVIEW

Human review required

If a match is ambiguous, the AI flags it for you. You decide if the hit is a true match or a false positive.

LOGS

Audit trail ready

The AI provides a record of which monitors were run. You'll have a clear history of every screening attempt.

The workflow

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI block users automatically?

    No. The AI only identifies and reports the hits. You must manually decide whether to block a user in your own system.

  • 02

    Can the AI change my SEON monitor settings?

    No. The AI can list your monitors, but it cannot add, delete, or edit any settings in SEON.

  • 03

    Does the AI work with any user data?

    Yes, as long as you provide the necessary identity details in your prompt for the screening tool to use.

  • 04

    Will the AI save my user data?

    No. The AI uses the data to perform the check and then moves on; it doesn't store user identities.

  • 05

    Can I see which specific watchlist triggered a hit?

    Yes. The AI reports the specific monitor that was triggered during the screening process.
