About FaceSearch

FaceSearch is a web-based tool that locates instances of a given face across publicly accessible online sources. Users upload a clear, front-facing photo which the service compares against millions of images on the public internet. Matches are ranked by similarity and presented with the original source pages. The tool scans social media, news sites, blogs, mugshot databases, sex offender registries, scammer lists, and video platforms. Searches are performed in-browser without requiring software installation, and results are stored in a user history for review. Paid plans increase the number of searches per day and unlock deep search credits for broader coverage. The service does not access private accounts, logins, or content behind paywalls.
