# Opsis OSINT > Opsis is a consumer-friendly OSINT (open-source intelligence) platform with 1,000+ modules for real-time searches to find accounts, profile data, and digital footprints tied to a username, email, or domain. Available as a hosted web app and a programmatic API — no install, no command line required. Opsis brings the capabilities of tools like Maigret, Sherlock, Holehe, and WhatsMyName to non-technical users. It is used by investigators, security analysts, recruiters, and everyday people who want to see what is public about themselves or someone they're doing due diligence on. All queries hit publicly accessible endpoints — no breach dumps, no credential databases, no scraping behind logins, no dark web sources. Search results are ephemeral (purged within hours of being generated); search history is retained for up to 90 days for billing, then auto-deleted. Opsis does not maintain a subject database and does not sell user data. ## Product pages - [Homepage](https://useopsis.com/): Product overview, live animated demo, feature breakdown, pricing - [About](https://useopsis.com/about): Philosophy, how it works, what Opsis does and does not do - [FAQ](https://useopsis.com/faq): Questions about data sources, privacy, legality, and result retention - [Search](https://useopsis.com/search): Main search interface (requires account) - [Documentation](https://useopsis.com/docs): Developer documentation hub - [API Reference](https://useopsis.com/docs/api): Full programmatic API reference - [OSINT MCP server](https://useopsis.com/products/osint-mcp): Use Opsis from Claude, Cursor and other AI assistants ## API Opsis offers a programmatic HTTP API for running searches and retrieving structured JSON results — the same engine that powers the web app. - Base URL: https://api.useopsis.com - Authentication: per-user secret API keys, sent as a Bearer token or an X-API-Key header - Endpoints: `POST /v1/searches` (start a search; optionally wait inline for results) and `GET /v1/searches/{run_id}` (poll status and results) - Availability: Pro and Unlimited plans - Full reference: https://useopsis.com/docs/api ## MCP server Opsis is also a hosted MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, so AI assistants such as Claude (web, desktop and mobile), ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code Copilot can run OSINT searches directly. - Page and setup: https://useopsis.com/products/osint-mcp - Endpoint: https://api.useopsis.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Users sign in to Opsis by OAuth; clients without OAuth can send `Authorization: Bearer `. - Claude: Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, paste the URL, sign in. - Claude Code: `claude mcp add --transport http opsis https://api.useopsis.com/mcp`, then `/mcp` to sign in. - Tools: search_email, search_username, search_domain, get_search, list_searches, account - Free: every account gets 3 free searches through the MCP server, no card. After that it uses API credits on a Pro plan. ## Pricing Plans are monthly subscriptions; each search draws from a monthly credit allowance (a Premium deep search costs 2 credits). - **Starter** — $14.99/mo · 25 searches/mo · core OSINT tools, email support - **Basic** — $24.99/mo · 75 searches/mo · all OSINT tools, deep search, priority support *(most popular)* - **Pro** — $49.99/mo · 150 searches/mo · all tools, deep search, advanced modules, programmatic API access, priority support ## Core capabilities - **Username search** — public-profile lookups across social media, gaming, dev tools, crypto, and more - **Email enrichment** — supported services checked for account recognition and available profile details - **Domain OSINT** — WHOIS, DNS, and related domain intelligence - **Premium deep search** — adds solver-gated "protected" sources (Facebook, LinkedIn, Quora, Hack Forums, and more) that need a challenge-solver to reach; available on Basic and up - **Real-time streaming results** — hits, misses, and progress visible as each module completes, not after a loading screen - **Programmatic API** — run searches and retrieve structured JSON from any language or environment ## What makes Opsis different - **Verified hits, not guesses** — most scanners flag any HTTP 200 response as a "found" account; Opsis requires real profile signals (avatars, display names, structured data) before counting a hit - **Continuously maintained modules** — OSINT sites constantly change their HTML and APIs; most free tools list hundreds of sources but a large fraction return empty. Opsis actively monitors and repairs its 1,000+ modules - **Full profile data** — avatars, display names, bios, follower counts, and join dates, not just a green checkmark - **Hosted** — no CLI, no Python, no dependency setup ## Comparison to other tools Opsis vs. Maigret, Usersearch, Namechk, WhatsMyName: Opsis has an actively maintained catalog of 1,000+ modules, produces fewer false positives than most Python-based scanners, returns richer profile data than namecheck-style sites, and runs hosted rather than CLI-only. ## Data practices - All sources are publicly accessible (profile pages, public APIs, registration checks) - No scraped breach databases, no stolen credentials, no dark web - Search results are purged within hours; search history kept 90 days for billing, then deleted - No subject database — every search is a fresh live query - Searches are encrypted in transit, never shared, never sold ## Legal & policy - [Privacy Policy](https://useopsis.com/privacy) - [Terms of Service](https://useopsis.com/terms) ## Contact - Support: support@useopsis.com
