      "answer": "At the median selected quote, 100,000 calls total $1,000.00 at $0.01 per call. This reference calculation assumes the same request shape and excludes batch discounts, review work and retries."
    },
    {
      "question": "Does a clear result prove that a party is not sanctioned?",
      "answer": "No. It says that the route found no candidate on the lists it searched, with its matching method, on the list version it read. Other lists, spelling variants and later designations are outside that answer."
    },
    {
      "question": "Does a match mean the party is sanctioned?",
      "answer": "Not by itself. A name match is a candidate. Compare the identifiers on the list entry, such as date of birth, nationality or registration number, before deciding."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is a crypto address screen the same as a name screen?",
      "answer": "No. An address screen checks the address against addresses published on a list. It does not identify the owner of an unlisted address or trace funds."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is a PEP check a sanctions screen?",
      "answer": "No. A politically exposed person is not sanctioned. A PEP match calls for enhanced review under an anti-money-laundering policy, and it is priced here as an adjacent type."
    },
    {
      "question": "Does using a screening API meet a compliance obligation?",
      "answer": "The API supplies matches. The obligation sits with the business: choosing the lists, setting thresholds, reviewing candidates and keeping records."
    },
    {
      "question": "Does HTTP 402 establish a correct paid answer?",
      "answer": "It establishes a payment requirement for the request. A stored challenge, an observed payment and a complete, current screen are different evidence."
