Sanctioned-entity identification,
with a record that holds up.

Send Clarado a name. It checks the global sanctions and watch lists, weighs how strong the match really is, and returns one clear decision: clear, review, or blocked. Every check is written to a tamper-evident ledger, so months later you can prove exactly what you checked and when.

The check the law requires

A duty that is easy to get wrong, in both directions.

Banks, exchanges, marketplaces and exporters are required to check the people and companies they deal with against government sanctions and watch lists. The stakes are lopsided. Miss a real match and the fines are severe and the reputational damage is worse. Block an innocent customer and you lose the sale and insult them. The lists are long and change constantly; names arrive misspelled, transliterated and in different alphabets; and most teams still handle it with a fragile spreadsheet or a heavy, costly vendor platform that takes months to install. Clarado makes it a single, trustworthy call.

What Clarado is

Match. Decide. Prove.

Match
Fuzzy and phonetic, tuned not to cry wolf

Matching across spellings, transliterations and alphabets, scored so a weak partial match can never block a sale on its own. Strong corroboration blocks; a thin signal is shown, never enforced.

Decide
One clear answer, fail-closed

Every request resolves to clear, review, or blocked. When anything is uncertain Clarado answers review, never a silent clear — a held case is a question for a human, not a risk that slipped through.

Prove
A result you can show an auditor

Every check is written to a tamper-evident ledger with a signed chain, so no entry can be quietly changed after the fact. Months later, the answer to what you checked and when is already there.

What sets it apart

The answer is half of it. The proof is the other half.

Most tools of this kind treat the audit trail as an afterthought and bolt it on late, when a regulator or a customer finally demands it. Clarado is built on a tamper-evident ledger from the first day: append-only, signed, with actor and before/after state. For work where trust is the product — sanctioned-entity identification, compliance, regulated operations — that is the difference between a demo and something a serious buyer will actually run.

Append-only

No record is updated or deleted. Corrections are new facts, and the history stays intact.

Signed chain

Each entry is cryptographically chained to the last, so tampering is detectable, not silent.

Provable later

Who was checked, what was decided, what changed — reconstructable on demand for an auditor or partner.
