Smart Lookup is the feature people ask about the most, and it is also the one that is easiest to misunderstand. On the surface it looks like a search box. Under the bonnet it is doing a lot more.
One query, many sources
When you add a vendor, Smart Lookup checks them against five global sanctions lists, reads their own website to rate their exposure risk, and rates their ESG standing from public data. It brings those results together into a single profile for the vendor you are looking at.
The goal is to take work that would normally need a compliance analyst and several tabs, and do it for you in one step.
Why it matters
Most risk tooling still assumes you will run checks manually, and that you will run them only at onboarding. That is how organisations end up with vendors who were clean on day one and quietly stopped being clean eighteen months later.
Smart Lookup is designed to make checks cheap enough to run continuously, because the real risk is never the vendor you onboarded yesterday.
