Is this a mobile geofencing SDK?
“No. Mobile geofencing SDKs (Android's GeofencingClient, Apple Core Location regions, and location-platform SDKs) fire events when a device enters or leaves a geographic area, using the device's own GPS.”
CompliAPI
“Real-time OFAC and global sanctions screening API: screen crypto addresses, emails, websites, government IDs, and countries against the US Treasury SDN list and 10+ sanctions, crime, and risk lists, with VPN detection and IP geolocation.”
Questions & answers
Do you have a geofencing SDK?
“The API is a plain authenticated GET request, so it works from any language without an SDK — the cURL, Python and Node examples above are complete. For AI-agent stacks, the same geolocation is exposed as a tool on CompliAPI's MCP server, alongside VPN detection and the screening tools.”
Is there a free geofencing API tier?
“Yes. A free API key includes 1,000 requests per month across all endpoints, geolocation included, and requests can also be paid per call with x402 USDC micropayments without an account. Paid plans raise the monthly quota.”
Which countries are flagged as sanctioned?
“Countries and regions under OFAC sanctions programs, curated by CompliAPI across comprehensive, targeted and military designations. Each flag includes a source_url so you can review the underlying program.”
Can I apply state-level rules like New York?
“Yes — responses include city and region alongside country, so your application can implement rules such as special handling for New York State users.”
Is there an official OFAC API?
“No — OFAC itself publishes the SDN list as downloadable data files and a public search website, not as an API.”
What is OFAC screening for?
“To find out, before you deal with a party, whether an identifier belongs to someone on OFAC's SDN or Non-SDN lists or sits in a jurisdiction under an OFAC country program.”
Does the OFAC API cover the Non-SDN lists?
“Yes. Screening covers the SDN and Blocked Persons list, OFAC's Non-SDN Consolidated Sanctions List (SSI, NS-CMIC, CAPTA and similar — same publication stream, ingested every 15 minutes), and OFAC's country-level sanctions programs. Every call also checks official lists from other jurisdictions — the UK, EU, France and Japan among them — with each match naming the list that produced it.”
Can I screen crypto wallets against OFAC?
“Yes. GET /api/v1/screen/crypto/{address} checks any address format OFAC publishes in SDN records — ETH, BTC, XMR, USDT and more — and ENS names are resolved on Ethereum mainnet before screening. The wallet screening page covers chain and coverage details.”
Is there an open-source OFAC SDN API on GitHub?
“There are open-source SDN parsers and self-hosted search projects on GitHub, and they are a reasonable starting point if you want to own the pipeline.”
Does the MCP server use the same API credentials?
“Yes. Authenticate with your existing CompliAPI API token as a bearer header. Tool calls are metered against your organization's quota exactly like REST requests.”
Which tools does the server expose?
“screencryptoaddress, screenemail, screenwebsite, screengovernmentid, screencountry, screenpep, detectvpn and geolocateip — the full set of CompliAPI screening capabilities.”
Which MCP clients are supported?
“Any client that supports remote MCP servers over streamable HTTP. Add the server URL and an Authorization header to the client's MCP configuration.”
Is the data different from the REST API?
“No. The MCP tools call the same screening logic and the same OFAC SDN data, refreshed every 15 minutes, as the REST endpoints.”
Should agents be the only place screening happens?
“For critical flows, most teams also enforce checks deterministically in application code — the REST API exposes the same data with the same credentials, so the backstop is one request away.”
