What AML Watcher is

AML Watcher is a screening and transaction-monitoring service for organizations checking customer and payment risks. It screens against PEP, adverse-media, sanctions, watchlist, anti-bribery and corruption, and international-leaks data. Transaction monitoring includes 150+ curated AML typologies and 10K+ customizable risk rules. AML Watcher says its database draws on over 100,000 sources, is updated every 15 minutes, and covers 235+ countries and states in 80+ screening languages. Its TruRisk explainable-AI feature is advertised to reduce false alerts by 80% and log each judgment; biometric screening compares a supplied image with a public AML face-data repository and claims 99% accuracy. Pre-built libraries are available for JavaScript, PHP, Python, Ruby, Go, C#, Java, and cURL. The API supports cloud systems, and on-premises deployment is available. AML Watcher states that its database and service comply with GDPR and ISO 27001. There is no free plan, but the trial includes the first five searches free. The minimum tier covers 100 monitored entities, and unused credits do not roll over.
