Our takeA lightweight, zero-cost OSINT tool that surfaces publicly available social media accounts across 100+ networks from a single username or email.
Built as a Hexomatic hackathon project in 2021, it remains free with no account required. Discover Profiles is a sales prospecting and OSINT utility.
Why we rate itZero cost, zero friction.
For a quick social footprint check on a prospect or candidate, there is no cheaper or faster starting point.
The catchNo bulk processing, no export, and no account means no saved history.
Built as a hackathon side project — reliability and ongoing maintenance are not guaranteed. Only surfaces public profiles; private accounts are invisible.
