About & methodology
OSINT Atlas is a free directory of official public-record search sites and curated OSINT tools. It is a directory only: it never runs searches, stores records or collects personal data.
What is listed
Public records: 7,406 official government search portals — 7,195 for the United States (courts, criminal and inmate, property, business, political, licenses, vital records and federal tools) and 211 for Canada and the UK. Public-record entries link only to official government or court-run sites, or to the official vendor portal a government uses.
OSINT: 178 third-party tools and guides across 19 topics. Paid people-search data brokers and leaked-data dumps are deliberately not listed.
How links are checked
Every link is re-checked automatically once a week. Each card shows its status: Working, May be blocked (our automated check was turned away by bot protection; the site usually works in a normal browser) or No online search. Broken links are replaced with the official successor where one exists. Source validation last completed: Oct 19, 2026.
Coverage
See the coverage map for which states and counties have listings in each section, and what's new for recent changes (also as an RSS feed).
Suggestions and corrections
Use Suggest a resource in the directory header, or Report a broken link on any card. Suggestions are reviewed before anything is added; public-record suggestions must be official sources.
