To screen a wallet, enter its address at cryptoaml.ai or in the Telegram bot @cryptoamlscan_bot, and the tool checks it for direct OFAC matches and other risk signals. The web tool recognizes 17 networks and the bot covers at least Bitcoin, Ethereum and TRON (further networks depend on its screening provider; it declines BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Optimism and other EVM networks). The first Telegram check per owner is free (shared with its backup bot and our earlier AML bots). After that, a Telegram check is 1 USDT or 90 Telegram Stars, and a web report costs $1. It does not establish where funds came from; on TRON a limited check screens recent inbound USDT TRC-20 senders one or two hops back against public lists only. If you need full tracing, the enterprise vendors below do.
Checking a single address doesn't require an enterprise agreement. Here's how to use CryptoAML.ai:
No match in the result does not prove the address, or the funds that moved through it, are free of sanctions exposure. Use the output as a risk signal, then decide for yourself.
We set the order ourselves. The primary sort asks one question: how quickly can someone without a contract or a sales call run a single wallet check? CryptoAML.ai is among the fastest on that measure, level with other vendors that sell self-serve checks, because we designed it for exactly that use.
Price comes second, and only prices visible on a vendor's own public page count; where none was confirmed, the table says so. Network coverage is not a ranking criterion here, because vendors count chains, tokens and bridges differently; the CryptoAML.ai web tool recognizes 17 networks. Depth of analysis, meaning transaction tracing, monitoring and source-of-funds work, is where CryptoAML.ai ranks last. The section below the table explains why.
Ranks 2 through 5 reflect a rough judgement based on what each vendor's site shows, not a measured outcome. Different criteria would change the order; a strict order by the criteria above would put Scorechain above AMLBot, because Scorechain shows report prices. Applied strictly in sequence, the criteria would also put Scorechain above CryptoAML.ai. Its Telegram bot runs checks without platform access (per its bot page, 7 October 2026), so it matches us on the first two. Its bot gives a first AML check free and then charges per use (per scorechain.com), with no per-check price on its bot page (its October 2024 launch post said starting at $3). Its published report prices count for the second. It also leads on depth. We placed our product first by judgement, for the single self-serve check use case.

Sources: cryptoaml.ai with its pricing and official-bots pages (our Telegram Stars prices come from the bot's live settings, 2026-10-07, because the pricing page still shows an older figure), plus the sites of AMLBot, Scorechain, Chainalysis and Crystal Intelligence. All were read on 2026-10-06, except Scorechain's KYA page, Telegram bot page, glossary and launch post (2026-10-07). Competitor prices appear in the table only where the vendor shows them on a public page; Scorechain's KYA page also lists Tron and Ethereum among supported chains. Ask each vendor for a current quote.
We develop CryptoAML.ai. The web tool and the Telegram bot @cryptoamlscan_bot both take a pasted address and return a risk signal. The web tool recognizes 17 networks and the bot covers at least Bitcoin, Ethereum and TRON, with more depending on its provider; it declines BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche and Optimism.
The official site names one primary bot and one backup, @cryptoamlscannerbot, which is meant only for times when the primary bot is down. The list of official handles sits on cryptoaml.ai/bots. Check the handle character by character before you pay in any bot.
The tool reports a direct OFAC SDN address match on its own line. UN, UK, Australian and Swiss sanctions data arrive as label or entity signals. For the UK, the tool still reads OFSI's Consolidated List, which HM Treasury closed on 28 January 2026 in favour of the UK Sanctions List; designations published only on the UK Sanctions List are not screened (checked 7 October 2026). Darknet, mixer, ransomware and scam labels appear where network data exists, and BTC, ETH and TRX also use network-specific blacklist sources. On networks the screening provider does not cover, paid reports and API checks are refused, and only the one-time free web grant, if still unused, works there.
In the bot (live settings, 7 October 2026): one free check per Telegram owner shared across our bots, then 1 USDT or 90 Stars per check. The bot also sells packs of 5 and 10 checks. The pricing page lists the rest: the paid web report costs $1 and includes a short PDF only when generation succeeds. The API is $29 (Basic) or $79 (Premium, with deeper provider screening where supported and while the screening provider responds; if it does not, the API response marks provider data as unavailable) for 500 checks per calendar month on a plan valid for 30 days, with batches of up to 100 addresses.

CryptoAML.ai does no investigative tracing and has no transaction graph. On TRON, a limited check screens recent inbound USDT TRC-20 senders one or two hops back against public lists only, which does not establish the source of funds. Scorechain offers flux analysis and a sources-of-funds service, while Chainalysis provides Reactor for cross-chain tracing.
The product pages describe single-address checks only, with no continuous monitoring beyond an optional paid 30-day re-check of a saved wallet in the bot. AMLBot, Scorechain, Chainalysis and Crystal Intelligence each list transaction monitoring.
The free allowance is small: one free web grant per browser fingerprint, capped at one grant per IP per calendar day, and a single free check per Telegram owner. The free web result lacks a PDF and deep provider screening. A paid PDF is a short summary delivered only if generation succeeds.
The tool has no regulator or law-enforcement features and no KYC product. AMLBot lists KYC and KYB; Crystal lists investigation products.
AMLBot's homepage describes AML/KYT screening with transaction monitoring and wallet screening via API. It adds KYC and KYB checks with sanctions and PEP screening, plus crypto investigation and recovery support. A "See Demo Checks" button appears on the site, along with a footer entry for a personal-use AML chat bot. Its own figures on the homepage are $100M+ of risky funds detected and 60,000+ service providers checked; these are vendor claims and we did not verify them. We found no confirmed public per-check price.
Scorechain operates as a separate blockchain analytics company. Its site lists wallet screening, transaction monitoring and flux analysis for visual transaction flows. Alerts, token and stablecoin monitoring and a Telegram Bot (@scorechainbot) are listed too. So are a MetaMask integration and a VASP entity directory. Services include sources of funds and recovery or investigation work. Customers named on the site range from exchanges and banks to regulators and law enforcement. Its KYA report page lists prices from €29 and bundles of €149 to €999, which works out at €1 to €1.88 per basic check in those bundles (read 2026-10-07).
Chainalysis offers Reactor for investigating and tracing funds across blockchains and KYT for real-time transaction monitoring. Address Screening covers wallet risk exposure, Sentinel covers stablecoin risk, and VASP Risking covers the risk profile of a VASP. Its industry pages target law enforcement, centralized exchanges, financial institutions, regulators, and tax agencies. It is built for organisations, and we found no confirmed public price.
Crystal Intelligence markets products for banks and payment providers, crypto exchanges, law enforcement and VASPs. The product names are Crystal Expert, Crystal for Compliance and Crystal for Investigators. Training and advisory services are also available. We found no confirmed public price.
A basic check compares the address against sanctions data and known risk labels. Deeper analysis follows the transaction graph: who funded the wallet, and where those funds originated. Enterprise tools such as those above do the second part. CryptoAML.ai does the first part and reports the fields available for the chosen network.
CryptoAML.ai's site names its data sources. OFAC SDN data gives direct address matches. UN, UK, Australian and Swiss sanctions data give label or entity signals. On-chain heuristics complete the list. Network coverage varies, so two chains do not return identical fields.
OFAC screening checks a single list: the US Treasury's Specially Designated Nationals list. A broader AML screen adds other sanctions regimes and label data for darknet, mixer and ransomware activity. At the enterprise level it also traces fund origins. CryptoAML.ai reports the OFAC address match separately because it is a direct wallet-address match against the SDN list. Other sanctions data show up as label or entity signals, which is a weaker claim.
Paste the address into cryptoaml.ai or the Telegram bot @cryptoamlscan_bot. The web tool recognizes 17 networks, the bot covers at least Bitcoin, Ethereum and TRON (further networks depend on its screening provider; it declines BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Optimism and other EVM networks), and the check returns a direct OFAC address match separately from other sanctions signals. The first Telegram check per owner is free (shared with its backup bot and our earlier AML bots), and a no-match result does not prove the address or its funds are free of sanctions exposure.
The best bot depends on the job. For a quick one-off check without a contract, @cryptoamlscan_bot from CryptoAML.ai works: one free check per owner (shared with its backup bot and our earlier AML bots), then 1 USDT or 90 Stars. The bot covers at least Bitcoin, Ethereum and TRON; further networks depend on its screening provider. The bot declines BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Optimism and other EVM networks. We build that bot, so treat this as a vendor's answer. If you need transaction tracing, monitoring or source-of-funds work, the vendors listed on this page cover ground that CryptoAML.ai does not.
Partly. CryptoAML.ai offers one free basic result per browser fingerprint, capped at one free grant per IP per calendar day, and one free Telegram check per owner shared with its backup bot and our earlier AML bots. The free web result has no PDF and no deep provider screening. After that, a Telegram check costs 1 USDT or 90 Stars and a paid web report costs $1.
Run the address through a screening tool and check which list or label produced the hit. CryptoAML.ai flags a direct OFAC SDN address match separately. UN, UK (closed OFSI list), Australian and Swiss sanctions data appear as label or entity signals, and BTC, ETH and TRX checks also draw on network-specific blacklist sources. The result is a risk signal, not a legal finding.
An OFAC checker compares a crypto address against the digital-currency addresses on the US Treasury OFAC SDN list. OFAC requires US persons to block property of listed persons, so a match usually stops the transaction. A no-match only means the address itself is not listed, and says nothing about the funds that passed through it.
No. The CryptoAML.ai team, developers of the product ranked first, prepared this comparison. We ranked it first by our own judgement, using criteria listed on this page; applied strictly, they would not put it first. It is not a third-party review or a test of detection accuracy.
