StratoLex is a sanctions and lane-intelligence desk for the customs broker. OFAC, EU, UK, UN and PEP lists, refreshed daily. Tariff, port and embargo signals routed to your inbox 24 to 72 hours before they show in the trade press.
Drop a manifest. We run shipper, consignee, notify, vessel owner and beneficial owner against OFAC SDN, OFAC Consolidated, EU CFSP, UK OFSI and UN sanctions, plus a PEP list. Every cleared entity gets a stamp with the timestamp, the operator handle and the watchlist version — printable, archivable, defensible.
Beneficial-owner walk-back to UBO confirmed. Shipper's UK affiliate listed by name but registry shows dissolved 2024-08. Recommended hold for 1 hour pending CBP query — released same day.
01
Paste a manifest, upload an ACE entry summary, or push from ABI. Shipper, consignee, notify, vessel owner, beneficial owner — all parties are pulled and normalised.
02
Five sanctions sources plus PEP screening in one pass: OFAC SDN, OFAC Consolidated, EU CFSP, UK OFSI, UN 1267/1718, plus a PEP list. Aliases, transliterations and prior names are matched.
03
Cleared entries get a timestamped, watchlist-versioned stamp in PDF. Hits alert your phone with the matched record and recommended hold action — before CBP queries you.
StratoLex does not file. It sits beside ACE and your ABI software and hardens the parties before the entry and the ISF go in. Screen the consignee, shipper and manufacturer at the ISF 10+2 stage and you carry a clean, version-stamped result into the entry summary — which is what keeps a manifest off an Automated Targeting System (ATS) hold.
01
Run the seller, buyer, manufacturer, ship-to and container-stuffing parties from your ISF filing against every list. The earlier a denied party surfaces, the cheaper it is to fix — before the bill of lading is cut, not after.
02
Upload an ACE 7501 entry summary, or push from ABI on Desk Pro. The same parties are re-screened against the day's watchlist version so the entry carries a current, defensible result — not a stale one from the ISF stage.
03
A documented sanctions and PEP screen on every party is exactly the diligence a C-TPAT member is expected to keep on file. A clean, timestamped trail per entry is what you hand CBP if the Automated Targeting System flags a shipment for review.
StratoLex screens against the full set of OFAC, EU, UK, UN and PEP lists and surfaces tariff and port changes through tariff and port-event lane intelligence. Solo brokers start on Radar — $49/mo sanctions screening; ABI push and the UFLPA module ship on Desk Pro.
If you clear entries on the U.S. lanes below, the daily filing volume against new OFAC adds, EU restrictives, UK OFSI updates and PEP refresh is not a part-time job. StratoLex is the desk that holds the work.
Electronics, apparel, machinery. HS 8541, 8517, 6204. Daily AD/CVD watch + Section 301 adds.
Apparel, footwear, furniture. Trans-shipment risk pattern flagged when shipper is registered < 18 months.
Steel, textiles, white goods. Russia / Belarus circumvention overlay applied to consignor walk-back.
USMCA preference + IMMEX overlay. Forced-labour module screens against UFLPA entity list.
Industrial machinery, chemicals. EU CFSP and UK OFSI cross-checked for re-exported sanctioned tech.
Pharma, textiles, steel. PEP and consolidated-list screen on Indian state-owned consignors.
Lane packs add deeper source coverage on Desk Pro: WCO HS amendments, EU TARIC, USITC HTS, CBSA D-memos, JP METI orders. Industry-specific source packs available for electronics, apparel, food and beverage, pharma.
Denied-party screening software is built and priced for corporate trade-compliance departments. If you are a solo broker, a small forwarder, or an SMB importer, you are quoted an enterprise seat for a single-operator problem. StratoLex runs the same five-source sanctions and PEP screen, transparently, from $49 a month.
Descartes Visual Compliance is wired for enterprise restricted-party screening at enterprise pricing. StratoLex stamps the entry file the same shift the manifest lands — from $49/mo, no annual seat minimum.
The former Amber Road suite (now Descartes GLN) targets large importers' GTM stacks. StratoLex covers the screening that an SMB importer actually needs, without the platform you do not.
PEP and sanctions screening for freight forwarders who clear on behalf of clients — three operator seats on Desk, an audit trail per operator, white-labelable PDF stamps.
Denied-party screening software is normally quote-only. Ours is published: Radar $49, Desk $97, Desk Pro $297 per month. No demo gate to see what a screen costs.
An HTS-code tariff-alert tool layered on the same lane. Section 301, AD/CVD and HTS amendments on your codes route to your phone 24–72 hours ahead.
The screening engine does not change between plans — only seats, volume and integrations do. A solo broker screens against the same 91,500 entities as a Desk Pro shop.

CBP eManifest + ABI integration
We are running a hands-on concierge beta for U.S. licensed brokers on CN, VN, TR and MX lanes. Send us your three highest-volume HS codes and consignors. We hand-curate your first 30 days of alerts on top of the Radar tier. Cancel anytime.
Primary registries only: OFAC SDN and Consolidated lists from Treasury, EU CFSP from the Commission, UK OFSI from HMT, UN 1267 and 1718 committees. PEP list from a commercial registry — refreshed daily, version-stamped on every screening pass so the audit trail is defensible.
No. StratoLex sits beside your filing tool. Ingest is a paste, an ACE export upload, or on Desk Pro, an ABI / eManifest webhook. The stamp goes into your entry file. Nothing files to CBP from our side.
Matches are scored, not boolean. Each hit lists the matched record, the alias path, the score and the registry version. You decide. The decision is logged with operator handle and timestamp so a CBP query later has a clean trail.
Bloomberg is $24,000 a seat. Everstream is $15,000. Their screening is wired for enterprise risk teams, not the entry process. StratoLex stamps the entry file the same shift the manifest arrives, and routes the alert to your phone.
UFLPA forced-labour entity list overlay ships on Desk Pro. The full UFLPA entity list, Xinjiang and other PRC-region entities, and the rebuttable presumption flow is wired into the screening pass.
