# Implementing KYT for Stablecoin Transactions: Chainalysis vs Elliptic vs TRM Labs
Know Your Transaction (KYT) is mandatory for any business touching stablecoins. Compare the three leading providers: 1) Chainalysis KYT — market leader, 800+ institutional clients, real-time screening via REST API, risk scoring 0-10, covers 100+ chains. Pricing: $2-5K/month base + per-transaction fees. 2) Elliptic Lens — strong EU presence (important for MiCA), holistic screening (entity + transaction), good for compliance-heavy environments. Pricing: similar range, better bulk pricing. 3) TRM Labs — fastest growing, best UX/DX, strong API documentation, used by Circle and Coinbase. Pricing: competitive, free tier for startups. Technical deep dive: API integration patterns (pre-transaction screening vs post-transaction monitoring), webhook setup for real-time alerts, handling edge cases (cross-chain bridges, privacy protocols, mixer interactions). Show architecture: incoming transaction -> KYT API call -> risk score -> accept/reject/manual review queue. Include code snippets for screening a USDC transfer address. Address false positive rates and operational overhead.
