> 
> The Visitor Watchlist is a new capability that allows security teams and tenant primary contacts to identify and manage individuals who should not enter the property. It centralizes both expected visitors and restricted visitors in one place- with AI powered matching to help prevent unauthorized access.
> 
> ## How the Watchlist Works
> 
> **Navigate to [Tenants tab](https://app.visitt.io/tenants#tenants) > [Visitors](https://app.visitt.io/tenants#visitors) \> Visitor Watchlist**
> 
> This opens a dedicated view containing all watchlist entries added by admins or tenant primary contacts.

> 
> Match alerts appear **before arrival**
> 
> Admins or security staff can then choose how to proceed:
> 
> - Contact the tenant
> 
> - Allow check-in
> 
> - Deny entry
> 
> - Clear the alert if it's a false match
> 
> All current match alerts appear under the “Possible Matches” tab inside the Watchlist.
> 
> **Note:** Nothing prevents check-in unless the team decides to stop access.
> 
> Visitt simply ensures no match is missed.
