OSINT for private investigators

People, breach, domain, and image search without maintaining a dozen OSINT logins.

Licensed private investigators use SearchIn as a single front door to commercial OSINT providers — identity, leaks, WHOIS, faces, and photo geolocation. Pay for what you run on a case, and keep client work organized in investigations you can reopen.

Who it's for

  • Licensed private investigators and agencies
  • Skip-trace and locate specialists
  • Insurance and civil litigation support investigators
  • Solo PIs who need flexible, pay-per-use OSINT

Frequently asked questions

Is SearchIn built for private investigators?

SearchIn serves professional investigators including licensed PIs. Use providers in line with licensing rules, client agreements, and applicable law in your jurisdiction.

Why not buy each vendor separately?

Separate portals and seats add cost and friction. SearchIn puts multiple providers behind one wallet, UI, and API with refunds on failed searches.

Can a small agency share credits?

Team wallets let an agency share prepaid balance across investigators while still paying only for queries run.

Which integrations help locate work?

Identity providers, breach databases, WHOIS, Facecheck.id, and Picarta.ai cover common locate and verification workflows.
