We took vessels already publicly flagged by independent trackers and ran them through AIKON's own screening engine — real OFAC, EU and UK list checks, not AI narrative. Here's exactly what came back.
We pulled vessels already identified as suspected sanctions-evaders by two independent, credible public sources — UANI's "Ghost Armada" tanker tracker (Iran sanctions) and Ukraine's GUR Defence Intelligence shadow-fleet registry (Russia oil sanctions) — and ran each one through AIKON's own engine: independent OFAC/EU/UK checks, dark-fleet flag-state detection, high-risk corridor analysis, and multi-jurisdictional assessment across the London, Geneva and Dubai corridor. We did not cherry-pick results — this reports what the engine returned for every vessel screened, including the one that came back clean.
Re-screened 7 days later (2026-07-30) against freshly refreshed OFAC/UK/EU lists: YEHOPE and NIRETA — both CRITICAL_RISK on the original 2026-07-23 screen but with no list match at the time — now show exact full-name matches on the current OFAC SDN list under the IRAN-EO13902 program. Neither vessel's name changed in that window; the underlying sanctions list did. This is the exact gap a one-time screen can't catch and continuous re-screening exists to close.

A one-time screen is a snapshot. Vessels reflag, rename, and restructure ownership specifically to defeat static list checks — several vessels above show exactly this pattern. Continuous re-screening is what catches a vessel the day it changes identity, not months later.
AIKON runs a 30-day pilot — real scope, not just a price:
Screened using AIKON Compliance Agent v3.0 against the real OFAC SDN list (19,175 entities, 20,163 aliases), UK Sanctions List (57,775 entities) and EU Consolidated List (30,306 lookup terms) — 232,563 combined terms, not a shortlist, refreshed 2026-07-30. Full methodology available on request.
