OSINT searchfor usernames,emails & names.
Fingerprint’s OSINT search tools support two workflows. Social Search checks a username, email or phone number across 700+ public platforms in real time. People Search handles name lookups in public records.
What is OSINT?
OSINT stands for open-source intelligence: finding and connecting information that is already public. An investigator starts with one identifier, a handle, an email address, a phone number, or a name, and asks what the open web says about it. The answer is scattered across social profiles, developer accounts, gaming platforms, and forums.
Most OSINT work is collection: checking public sources, opening results, and noting which identities connect. Social Search automates that step for usernames, emails and phone numbers, querying 700+ platforms in parallel and streaming matches live. For a real name, the separate People Search checks public people records.
Start from what you have.
Choose the OSINT search tool that matches your starting point. Social Search returns live public-profile matches for usernames, emails and phone numbers. People Search returns public-record matches for names.
Trace a handle across the web
One handle, checked against 700+ platforms at once. People reuse the same username for years, so one lookup can map most of an online identity.
How username search worksFind the accounts behind an address
An email address resolves to the public accounts registered with it, with names, avatars, and usernames attached to each match.
How email search worksPut a name to a number
A phone number resolves to the public accounts registered with it, on the platforms that sign people up by number, with names and profiles attached.
How phone search worksLook up a person by name
Run a name search across public people records, then narrow matches by city, state, or ZIP.
