They trace names. We trace who really owns them.

The corporate-ownership & sanctions intelligence layer for AI agents — built for the agentic era. WhiteIntel turns public-registry and offshore-leak data into MCP-native intelligence primitives — entity search, semantic discovery, ownership-path traversal, sanctions screening, offshore-exposure detection, and fully cited dossiers — so any AI agent can investigate a company, trace its ultimate beneficial owner, and flag risk in one conversation. Your agent isn't querying a database — it's conducting an investigation.

What's live today

One command, any MCP agent:

npx -y @whiteintel/mcp-server

…starts an MCP server with 24 tools that give any AI agent — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, or your own runtime — full corporate-ownership intelligence: search by name or meaning, trace ownership chains to the UBO, screen sanctions across OFAC/EU/UN/UK, detect offshore layering, pull fully cited dossiers with financials and asset layers, and even purchase deeper intelligence through agent-initiated Stripe checkout. Every claim cited to its source, every edge traced to a registry record.

24 callable tools — 4 Discovery + 4 Lookup + 2 Coverage + 4 Intelligence + 2 Graph + 2 Risk + 4 Commerce + 1 Feed + 1 Pricing. All read-only except buy_dossier (opens Stripe — money moves only when a human completes it) and claim_dossier (redeems an already-paid session). Ids flow between tools: search → get_dossier → trace_ownership_path → get_sanctions.

Quickstart (60 seconds)

Distribution: the package is on npm — npx -y @whiteintel/mcp-server Just Works.

1. Run it. No key needed — works anonymously on the free tier:

npx -y @whiteintel/mcp-server

2a. Claude Desktop / Cursor — add to your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whiteintel": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@whiteintel/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "WHITEINTEL_API_KEY": "wi_…" }
    }
  }
}

2b. Claude Code CLI:

claude mcp add whiteintel -- npx -y @whiteintel/mcp-server

2c. One-click: add WhiteIntel to your editor at whiteintel.dev/developers.

The env block is optional — omit it to use the anonymous free tier. Set WHITEINTEL_API_KEY=wi_… to authenticate as your plan and lift limits.

Try it

You: "Who ultimately owns Revolut? Check sanctions on the whole chain."

Agent: calls search_entities({ query: "Revolut" }) → trace_ownership_path({ id }) → get_sanctions({ id }) for each hop → a fully cited ownership chain with sanctions screening at every level. Done.

You: "Find companies similar to Wirecard and check for offshore exposure."

Agent: calls find_similar({ entity_id }) → check_offshore_exposure({ id }) → flagged secrecy-jurisdiction hops and sanctioned intermediaries across the peer set.

Agents can pay

An agent can buy the paid depth of a dossier end-to-end, no WhiteIntel account needed:

1. buy_dossier { tier: "standard" | "premium", entity_id } → returns a Stripe checkout_url. Standard (€39) unlocks the full multi-hop UBO chain + financials; Premium (€99) adds aircraft, sanctioned vessels and property; on HIGH-risk or sanctioned subjects it additionally runs a live adverse-media scan (that scan is gated — it does not run on lower-risk entities).
2. A human completes payment at the checkout_url — Stripe collects an email and redirects back.
3. claim_dossier { session_id } → { token, entity_id, tier }. Idempotent; returns 402 until paid.
4. get_dossier { id, token } → the unlocked, fully-cited dossier JSON. Tokens valid 90 days.

No human at the keyboard right now? Step 1 is the wrong tool: a checkout_url is single-use and expires in 24 hours, so it is dead by the time someone reads your report. Call get_payment_link instead — it returns permanent Stripe links you can paste into a document, a ticket or a message, and append ?client_reference_id=<entity uuid> to bind one to a specific company. Measured 2026-08-11: those links cover the Standard tier only (single / 5 / 25); Premium still goes through buy_dossier.

Check get_pricing first — it returns the full price list plus this flow in machine-readable form.

The corpus

~171.2M entities across 41 fused registries — every claim cited, every edge traced.

Measured 2026-08-23 from whiteintel.dev/api/public/stats (entities = 171,207,760, itself a planner estimate). That endpoint rebuilds its source map by counting registries, so it is always the authority — and a new source shows up there without anyone editing this file.
