Foundation Architecture

Built on a three-layer architecture.

Source → Data → Knowledge

The Data Foundation rests on three tightly integrated layers. Source Documents ingest from primary government registries. Real-World Data resolves entities across jurisdictions using 11 years of enforcement history. The Knowledge Graph connects it all, evaluated by Superconductor for judgment quality.

The Sayari Stack

The foundation powers every pillar.

01 – Data Foundation

11.7B+ source records. The substrate.

Primary government registries organized into 1.5B+ entities across 250+ jurisdictions.

→ Primary source ingestion
→ Multilingual entity resolution
→ Real-time sanctions updates
02 – World Model

Unified entity resolution & intelligence.

Ownership graphs, commercial intelligence. Accessed via Graph, Signal, Map, Guide, and Data Access.

→ 1.5B+ resolved entities
→ Dynamic knowledge graph
→ Cross-jurisdictional matching
03 – Judgment Ontology

Tradecraft codified as evaluation rules.

7 skills, 13 trap patterns, 67,000 labeled decisions. Human-validated, not machine-generated.

→ Analyst expertise formalized
→ Failure mode detection
04 – Superconductor

Judgment infrastructure for AI workflows.

Orchestrates evaluation across any AI-powered workflow. Model-agnostic, domain-specific.

→ GREEN / AMBER / RED scoring
→ Eval-as-a-service deployment
Coverage Highlights

Built from 250+ jurisdictions. Optimized for opacity.

The Data Foundation covers the markets that matter most – including the opaque jurisdictions where sanctions evaders, export control circumventors, and financial crime actors specifically choose to hide.

Coverage Strategy

Coverage spans six regional strategies, each optimized for different compliance and security use cases:

  • Primary source ingestion – Direct collection from government registries in original language and structure
  • Local-language processing – Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, Korean, Thai, and other non-Latin scripts preserved before transliteration
  • Entity resolution – Unified records across 250+ jurisdictions, resolving the same company across multiple sources
  • Real-time updates – Sanctions lists in minutes, registries continuously, trade data weekly

Implementation Path

Start with what you have. Add judgment when you’re ready.

01

Start with what you have

Connect the Data Foundation to your existing systems. Load your entity lists, customer portfolios, and target screening sets. Begin resolving ownership immediately.

02

Layer on investigative judgment

Use Graph to investigate ownership networks, Signal to screen at scale, and Guide for analyst-speed research. The Data Foundation powers all three with unified entity resolution.

03

Move to Superconductor

When you’re ready, connect AI reasoning to the world model. Superconductor automates investigation workflows, decision workflows, and threat intelligence synthesis at enterprise scale.
