Check any name against OFAC — free.
Search the SDN and Consolidated lists, then browse every General License, program, and FAQ behind a designation. When informational isn’t enough, the Bulwark platform screens, monitors, and files.
Informational only — not a compliance determination.
Not just a name list — the legal context behind every designation.
Anyone can tell you a name is listed. Bulwark also gives you what to do about it — free: the U.S. General Licenses, statutory exemptions, program authorities, and Treasury FAQs that govern what’s actually permitted. No login.
What OFAC authorizes despite a designation — status, expiry, and conditions.
Every program and its legal authority, and the tags each one covers.
The statutory carve-outs — informational materials, travel, humanitarian.
Treasury's own guidance — the 50% rule, blocking, licensing — by topic.
Browse every designation — people, companies, vessels — with programs and dates.
What OFAC changed — new designations, removals, expiring licenses.
From a free lookup to a filed report — on one platform.
Most people arrive to answer one question. Bulwark takes you from there through the rest of the job — screening, monitoring, and reporting. Turn on only what you need.
Search and browse the free OFAC reference — lists, General Licenses, programs, and FAQs.
Real-time and batch payment screening with fuzzy matching, the 50% rule, and an examiner-ready audit trail.
Cited research briefs and change alerts within minutes of Treasury, scoped to your program.
The reports your examiner asks for — blocked-property and rejected-transaction filings — drafted from your records.
Four modules. One platform.
Each module is purpose-built for one part of the compliance stack — reference, research, screening, reporting. Turn them on per account from the Bulwark admin, no separate integration required.

Learn moreCurrent within minutes. Decisions you can defend. Data that stays yours.
Three things that set the platform apart from broad, data-hungry financial-crime suites.
OFAC intelligence within minutes of publication
Every OFAC SDN and Consolidated change is ingested within five minutes of Treasury publishing it — so the reference layer, your screening, and Recon's research all run against today's lists, not last night's batch. The EU (CFSP), UK (FCDO), and UN consolidated lists are live in research and the free search, ingested minutes after the source list republishes. Recon, the research agent, takes one name, vessel, or company and returns a cited brief streamed live, every claim linked to its source; PEP and Lloyd's vessel enrichment activate when you supply your own provider key.
Reproducible, audit-grade decisions
Screen a payment with Gauntlet and the decision pins the exact OFAC publish dates and list version it ran against, recorded in an append-only audit trail. Reconstruct what the lists looked like the day you screened, and hand an examiner a record they can verify line by line.
Private by architecture
Recon is stateless by default, with zero data retention at the model layer: no customer query and no rendered brief is persisted on our infrastructure unless your account opts in. Operational data is isolated per organization with row-level security. You own your data — we don't aggregate it into a shared database.
OFAC publishes. You know within five minutes.
Your compliance team shouldn't be the last to find out. Bulwark watches the sanctions lists around the clock, makes sense of what changed, and tells the right people — so nothing slips through.
Overwhelmed by OFAC's subscription emails? Subscribe to only the changes that affect your program.
Build a rule from program codes, list types, entity types, GL numbers, or free-text criteria. Bulwark shows you how many OFAC publications in the last 30 days would have matched, before you save — so you never end up with a rule that's too noisy or too quiet.
Security and audit, built in.
Access controls keep your team's working context private, workspace changes are captured in an audit trail, and every record links back to its Treasury source.
The free reference and lookup surfaces — search, programs, lists, general licenses, and editorial guidance — are a reference, not a screening tool: informational only, never a screening decision. Screening lives in the Gauntlet module, where it belongs — with match scores, four-eyes disposition, and an audit trail. That boundary is deliberate: the reference layer stays something your team can consult freely, and every screening decision happens in a workflow built to defend it.
Your team's content stays with your team
Notes, notifications, pinned items, and saved views are accessible only to people you've invited to your organization. Role-based permissions for analysts, compliance officers, admins, and read-only auditors.
An audit trail your examiner can read
Workspace actions — pins, alert rules and notification channels, invitations, change-event triage, access reviews, and audit-log exports — recorded with the acting user and a timestamp, scoped to your organization, in an append-only, hash-chained log. Point-in-time snapshots of the OFAC lists since April 2026. Export to PDF or CSV for examiner response.
Treasury is the source of truth
Bulwark structures what OFAC publishes. We don't replace it, paywall it, or claim derivative rights. Every record links back to the original OFAC source so your team can verify directly.
The lists are public. The hard part is keeping a team coordinated around them — knowing what changed, who needs to act, and how. Bulwark is built for that part.The Bulwark teamWhy we're building this
