Merchant Risk Review
Merchant underwriting for each merchant website: what it sells, a suggested MCC, prohibited or high-risk items, missing compliance pages, a risk rating and an action.
Built for payments risk teams doing merchant underwriting for onboarding or portfolio monitoring.
- High risk industry screening
- High risk country screening
- Website trust verification
Why this work is hard
Payments risk and underwriting teams reviewing merchants for onboarding or portfolio monitoring spend hours on this by hand: finding the right sources, reading them, checking them against each other and writing up what matters. The work is repetitive, it is easy to miss something, and nobody can show where a claim came from.
Merchant Risk Review does that work as a GREP AI agent. It takes a whole list in one run and returns one row per item. Every run delivers a sourced report, with every claim linked to its source.
