The standard for wire-instruction review before funds move.
Every office already reviews wire instructions before a disbursement. Veto is the standard for what that review should leave in the file, and the record that proves it happened: what changed, what was checked, what stayed open, who signed.
The review already happens. The question is whether your file can prove it.
No account required. Bring one file, review it end-to-end, and keep the record in your own controls.
Where review belongs in the file lifecycle.
Wire instructions are defensible only when the review is captured before money moves and remains readable later.
Review the file and record what changed, what was checked, what stayed open, and who made the release call.
Where the Veto Record livesFunds are released. If the review only lives in inboxes or chat, the file can prove money moved but not how the decision was made.
When counsel, regulators, or your own team reopen the file later, the record must show the checks and judgment, not just the transfer.
Most tools optimize for during and after. Veto is built for before — where office judgment is made and where proof has to be captured if the file will defend it later.

One review, one disbursement.
One file. One release. Here, the seller's net proceeds changed destination at the last minute.
How the change arrived.
New instructions arrived by email from an unknown domain, and the account name did not match the seller.
The checks that didn't clear.
Callback to the known number went unanswered, and signed seller authorization was not on file.
What's in hand, and what the office did.
Five of six expected items were present. With one gap open, the office held disbursement pending authorization.
Who signed it, and when.
Reviewer J. Martinez signed before release, with a timestamp anchored to the record.
Sealed, and file-ready.
The record closes with a hash and retained gaps, so the file can answer later without relying on memory.
One file-ready record per disbursement review.
Not a score or risk rating. A Veto Record is the file page that shows what changed, what was checked, what stayed open, and what the office decided before funds moved.
The evidence grammar — claim, source, check, result, limitation — is on The Standard. The sample on File 26-2287 shows what it looks like in practice.

“Escrow teams already do the review. Veto makes sure the file proves it.”
Can your files show the review?
A file-ready record means every check, its result, and its limitation are visible before release — with the office action, signature, and hash preserved in one page. Read the standard →
