Governed Intelligence Architecture

Governed intelligence. Evidence-bound decisions.

Veredis consumes governed intelligence from Nyansapo, an independent intelligence substrate. Veredis also evaluates time-sensitive trade and geopolitical signals from a small set of live public feeds as contextual evidence at transaction time.

Nyansapo — the governed intelligence substrate

Nyansapo is an independent product from Veredis, not an internal Veredis database. It acquires, versions and normalizes authoritative regulatory, legal and trade intelligence on a governed acquisition schedule — immutable, hash-tracked, source-versioned — rather than as a live real-time feed. Each source family carries an explicit legal-effect classification (Blocking, Review Required, EDD Only, Context Only, Notice Only), so a match on a review-only or context-only source is never treated as equivalent to a match on a source that can drive a BLOCK decision. Veredis consumes this intelligence through governed API contracts and applies its own deterministic decision rules after it arrives — Nyansapo supplies evidence, it does not compute Veredis's verdicts.

Sanctions & entity screening

Entities and transaction parties checked against official-source sanctions and watchlists.

Ownership & relationship intelligence

Resolved where evidence supports it. Ambiguous, conflicting or unresolved states are reported as such, never silently cleared.

Jurisdiction & trade-route context

Tariff, trade-remedy and jurisdictional context for a transaction corridor.

Legal & regulatory context

Retrieved through Nyansapo's Ceres knowledge layer as contextual material, kept separate from decision-driving evidence.

Live signal sources Veredis queries directly

Nyansapo is the durable truth substrate for entities, ownership, sanctions and regulatory intelligence. Veredis separately evaluates a small set of volatile, transaction-time signals directly — observations for this transaction now, not canonical entity or sanctions truth, and not a substitute for Nyansapo-supplied evidence.

WTO API (Quantitative Restrictions & Trade Facilitation)

Active import/export quantitative restrictions and trade-facilitation status for the relevant HS code and destination, evaluated at transaction time.

Public press & news feeds (GDELT, government press releases)

Time-sensitive geopolitical signal context on a trade corridor — not a sanctions determination. Sanctions and watchlist screening are supplied through Nyansapo, not this feed.

Evidence-bound, not certainty-bound

Not every source can BLOCK

Sources carry different legal effects. A review-only or context-only source informs a scan; it does not, by itself, produce a BLOCK verdict.

Resolution states are explicit

Entity and ownership resolution can be Resolved, Ambiguous, Conflicting or Unresolved — an unresolved result is reported as unresolved, not forced to a clean pass.

Fail-closed on unavailable evidence

If a source can't be reached, the scan reports it as unavailable and routes to manual review — it never silently substitutes a clear result.

No static source counts

We don't publish a fixed 'N sources' number here. Registry state differs across environments and changes as sources are added, paused, or reclassified — a static count would go stale.

Veredis consumes governed intelligence from Nyansapo, an independent intelligence substrate — Nyansapo is not a Veredis internal data layer, and Veredis does not own or directly maintain its source-acquisition estate.
