Compliance is the work. The tools are how I learn.
I’m Alpgiray Koçal. I work in AML/CFT and sanctions compliance. Alongside that, I try out new technology on problems I already know well — to see what it can genuinely do for the day-to-day work, and where it falls short.
The two experiments below came out of that. They are personal learning projects, not products, and they are live if you want to look around.
Experiments
02Built to learn, not to sell. Nothing here is a commercial product or a substitute for your own compliance process — treat anything they surface as a lead to verify.
Sanctions Search
Screens names, entities and vessels against OFAC, EU, UN and UK sanctions lists plus US export-control data. Fuzzy multi-script matching, ID and vessel lookups, and 50%-Rule ownership network views. Daily refresh, nothing stored.
sanctions.alpgiraykocal.comCompliance Check-Up
An AML/CFT self-assessment: a 218-question survey, a risk-based QA sampling plan and action tracking, with a dashboard over the results. No install, no account — data stays in your browser.
