You provide a company name, jurisdiction, and optionally key persons to screen. No sensitive data is required upfront.
Our engine queries 15+ authoritative sources in parallel: sanctions lists (UN, EU, OFAC, UK), PEP databases, company registries, court records, adverse media archives, and ESG indicators.
Results are analyzed to identify potential red flags across ownership structure, regulatory exposure, adverse media, ESG concerns, and high-risk country connections.
Each finding is evaluated based on source credibility, severity, and relevance. The system distinguishes between hard evidence (sanctions matches) and softer signals (media mentions).
A GO, CAUTION, or STOP recommendation is generated based on the aggregate findings. This is a recommendation only — all decisions remain with you.
A comprehensive report is generated with 8 sections, each with source links and detailed findings. The report is designed for audit trails and compliance documentation.
Varsel aggregates data from 15+ authoritative sources across five categories:
Varsel uses AI systems to assist with analysis. In accordance with the EU AI Act (Article 50), here is exactly what each system does:
| Component | AI System | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Adverse Media Search | Perplexity | Searches the web for news, court records, regulatory actions |
| Adverse Media Analysis | Gemini | Analyzes search results for relevance and severity |
| Market Reputation | Gemini | Assesses public perception from available sources |
| Baseline Risk | Gemini | Evaluates industry and jurisdiction risk factors |
| Person Background | Perplexity | Searches public records for key person information |
| Enrichment: Decompose | Gemini | Breaks a concern into specific risk dimensions |
| Enrichment: Research | Perplexity | Researches each dimension independently |
| Enrichment: Synthesis | Gemini | Combines findings into a sourced narrative |
All AI-generated content may contain inaccuracies or omissions. Every finding in the report includes source links so you can independently verify the information.
No sanctions matches, no significant adverse media, and no critical red flags identified. Standard due diligence procedures should still be followed.
One or more findings that warrant additional investigation: adverse media mentions, complex ownership structures, high-risk country connections, or regulatory flags.
Sanctions matches, active enforcement actions, or severe adverse findings that require immediate escalation and expert review before proceeding.
