How do I monitor agent payments for compliance?

Payment monitoring for AI agents requires three layers: automated screening logs (every payment gets a timestamped check), real-time alerts (notify a human when a sanctions match occurs), and periodic audit reviews (weekly review of screening logs for patterns).

Layer 1: Automated logs

SanctionsAI's paid tier ($19/mo) logs every screening call with timestamp, inputs, result, and agent identity. This is your primary compliance record.

Layer 2: Real-time alerts

Configure your agent to immediately halt and alert when clean: false is returned. A silent log is worthless in a live compliance incident.

Layer 3: Periodic reviews

Schedule weekly reviews of screening logs. Look for patterns: repeated attempts to pay similar addresses, spikes in high-risk jurisdiction activity, or agents operating outside expected parameters.
