The Minerva API enables financial institutions and regulated entities to automate and streamline key parts of their anti-money laundering (AML) compliance workflows. It leverages advanced deep learning models to analyze and consolidate information from over 250,000 global sources, covering nearly 1 billion individuals and entities and over 4.5 billion data points. The API provides structured outputs to support screening, investigations, onboarding, and regulatory reporting.

API Overview

The Minerva API is organized around two key capabilities:
  1. Profile Management
  2. Real-Time Risk Assessment
This guide walks through the features and workflows of each.

​
1. Profile Management & Monitoring

  • Integrate Minerva into onboarding workflows to screen and register customers in a single step.
  • Keep customer profiles up to date and synchronize data across internal systems and Minerva.
  • Enable ongoing monitoring for changes in risk status or new matches.
  • Leverage APIs and webhooks to support investigation workflows, review queues, and keep internal systems in sync

​
2. Real-Time Risk Assessment

Minerva screens individuals and entities against global watchlists (e.g. sanctions, PEPs, criminal, terror lists) and adverse media mentions. Results are enriched with supporting evidence and confidence scoring.
  • Real-Time Screening: Instantly screen a single profile synchronously for immediate results.
  • Batch Screening: Submit large batches of profiles to be processed in parallel asynchronously, supporting high-volume operations.
  • Generate reports: Automatically summarize search results and profile data for documentation, audits, or compliance filings.
