CipherOwl

CipherOwl provides AI-powered security and compliance for institutional stablecoins and digital assets. Its Screening, Risk & Reporting (SRR) API turns a blockchain address into a compliance decision: real-time sanctions and risk screening, deterministic 0-100 risk scoring, categorized risk breakdowns, path-level exposure evidence (including cross-chain), and analyst-ready risk assessment, SAR, and risk-flow-graph reports across Bitcoin, EVM, Tron, Solana, XRP and more. The platform also offers an Onchain balance service and a Private Data override service, an OwlTrace research experience, a Strix AI investigation agent, and a first-party CLI (cipherowl-sr3) that doubles as a Model Context Protocol server. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 client-credentials.

CipherOwl publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network: Onchain Service API, Private Data API API, and SRR API API. Tagged areas include Blockchain, Compliance, Crypto, Security, and Risk.

CipherOwl’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 23 more developer resources.
