How much does Elliptic cost?
Elliptic does not publish list prices. What follows is the cost structure behind the quote — and the published alternative if all you need is an OFAC list check.
Elliptic does not publish a price list. Every figure you will find online is someone's estimate of someone else's contract. This page does not add another one — it sets out what actually moves the number, so the quote you receive is one you can read.

What you are buying
Elliptic is an enterprise blockchain-analytics platform: wallet risk scoring, transaction tracing and typology detection across chains. That framing matters more than the number: the cost of a compliance tool is mostly a function of how much of it you will use.
What drives the Elliptic quote
| Cost driver | How it moves the number |
|---|---|
| Chain coverage | Priced by which blockchains and asset classes you need traced, not by how many addresses you screen. |
| Product line | Lens (wallet screening), Navigator (transaction monitoring) and Investigator (forensics) are separate products with separate contracts. |
| Seats | Investigator is seat-priced for analysts; an API-only deployment and a team-of-analysts deployment are very different numbers. |
| Contract term | Annual minimums are standard; there is no month-to-month entry point. |
Questions to put in writing before you sign
- What is the annual minimum, and what is the shortest available term?
- What happens on overage — hard stop, or per-unit billing at a higher rate?
- Which modules are in the quoted figure and which are add-ons at renewal?
- Is sanctions screening available without the surrounding platform?
- What is the contractual latency, and is it measured at the API or in the UI?
- How many engineering weeks does the vendor expect implementation to take?
Is Elliptic the right shape for your problem?
Elliptic answers "how risky is this address, and what is it connected to" — a forensic question. An OFAC screen answers "is this counterparty on a sanctions list right now" — a compliance question with a binary answer. If you only need the second one, an analytics contract is a large amount of capability you will not call.

SanctionsAI screens names and wallet addresses against the OFAC SDN list and returns a machine-readable verdict with an audit record. It does not do blockchain forensics, identity document verification or adverse-media research. Where you need those, the vendors on this page are the ones that sell them — the comparison is about scope, not about who is better.
Frequently asked questions
Does Elliptic publish pricing?
No. Elliptic is quote-based with annual contracts and no public price list or free tier.
Is Elliptic the same as sanctions screening?
No. Elliptic scores blockchain risk, including exposure to sanctioned entities several hops away. A sanctions screen is a direct list match against the OFAC SDN list. They answer different questions and many teams need only the second.
What does OFAC wallet screening cost without an analytics contract?
SanctionsAI screens wallet addresses against the OFAC SDN list on a free tier of 5 checks/day, $19/month for 10,000 checks, or $0.05 per call over x402.
Screen against the OFAC SDN list for free
5 checks a day, no API key and no signup. Paid plans start at $19/month. See pricing or read the docs.
