Our team can walk you through coverage, pricing, and integration paths in a 30-minute call.
The comprehensive compliance solution that adapts to your business
Sanctions screening, PEP identification, criminal checks and adverse media monitoring now run end-to-end through the customer life-cycle — at onboarding, during KYC, on every relevant transaction, at periodic rescreening, and as ongoing monitoring for status changes. Regulators expect a defensible AML/CFT programme at each step, and the cost of handling false positives and stitching disparate data sources keeps creeping into margin that should be funding growth.
dilisense gives you bespoke tooling that respects your existing processes. Pick the integration path that fits — and switch later without re-onboarding the data:
- Real-time API for automated sanctions and PEP screening
- Excel batch tool for periodic reviews
- On-premise database for data-privacy-first stacks

A REST API built for developers, not just compliance teams
A well-documented, developer-friendly REST API gives teams the clarity they need to ship sanctions, PEP and adverse media checks confidently and fast. SDKs and Postman collections make it simple to explore endpoints, test requests, and integrate into onboarding, transaction monitoring and rescreening workflows. Detailed examples, error-handling guidelines and sandbox environments reduce onboarding time for your engineers.
Open documentation→Tune sources, thresholds and identifiers to your risk appetite
Screen against the watchlists that matter to you. By selecting only relevant sanction, PEP, criminal and adverse media lists, teams cut false positives and focus on real risk. Configure risk thresholds to match your AML/CFT policy, and use secondary identifiers like date of birth or citizenship to refine fuzzy matching and tell apart individuals with similar names.
Build a defensible audit trail from structured responses
Detailed, structured API responses let you build a complete audit trail on your side. By logging responses, organisations create transparent records of every screening action — sanctions checks at onboarding, PEP hits at transaction time, adverse media alerts from ongoing monitoring. Every key data point stays preserved and accessible, so when regulators or auditors request evidence your team can produce reports directly from your own logs.
Built for compliance teams who need to move quickly
Four pillars in one database
Sanctions, PEP, criminal and adverse media — the four data pillars of AML in a single consolidated source. Pick the lists that match your programme to cut false positives and duplicates.
