BriteBase
Use Case

Sanctions screening with far fewer false positives.

Match every customer and payment against global sanctions lists in real time, and let entity resolution clear the noise so analysts act on true exposure.

Problem statement

Sanctions screening is non-negotiable, but name-only matching against global lists produces a flood of false positives that hides the real hits.

Operational challenge

Spelling variants, homonyms and stale records mean one true risk can surface as dozens of matches, each of which a reviewer has to clear by hand.
