# kyc_screener_batch

Async batch variant of kyc_screener. Accepts 1-100 names and returns immediately (<300ms) with a job_id. The screening runs in the background (up to 10 parallel KYC calls). Poll the result with kyc_screener_batch_result(job_id) after the eta_seconds hint. Each entry can specify name, type (person/company/any), and an optional birthdate hint. Use for bulk client onboarding, UBO list screening, or periodic AML refresh batches. Async tool — register a webhook via webhooks_manage(register, url, [job.completed]) to receive callbacks instead of polling. Faster + lighter.
