> An email scan checks supported account categories, expands into available indexed public-web context, and keeps a category-by-category record of returned checks.

OUTPUT_01 // ACCOUNT_SIGNALS

Check 18 account-service categories with clear statuses.

A validated email address is checked once across each of 18 supported account categories. Registered results are kept separate from not registered, unknown, and error responses.

  • 18 account category checks report registered, not registered, unknown, or error status for each returned response.
  • Coverage starts with Social, Music, Gaming, Jobs, News, Shopping, Sports, Learning, and Developer services, then continues through the remaining supported categories.
  • Submit only email addresses you are authorized to investigate.

> Key guidance for using public-information research tools carefully, accurately, and within an authorized scope.

01 // What Is SpiderFoot.tools?

SpiderFoot.tools is an independent browser-based OSINT service for researching publicly available information. It is a third-party service, not the SpiderFoot open-source project. Read more about the service and its operating standards on About.

02 // How should I read and verify results?

Treat every result as a research lead. Review the original source, compare independent evidence, check dates and context, and separate observed facts from inference. Our methodology explains the verification approach in more detail.

03 // Can a match be a false positive?

Yes. Shared usernames, stale records, copied content, and incomplete third-party data can all produce misleading matches. Do not use one result, an AI summary, or a public profile as proof of identity, ownership, intent, or wrongdoing.

04 // What data sources are checked?

Available checks depend on the input type, feature availability, and third-party source status. They may include public websites, indexed pages, profile services, and network-context providers. A source being queried does not make its output complete, current, or conclusive.

05 // How are privacy and retention handled?

Search inputs and limited technical metadata may be retained to operate features, prevent abuse, and provide research-history continuity. Submit only information you are authorized to investigate and review the Privacy Policy before using the service.

06 // SpiderFoot.tools vs SpiderFoot Open Source

SpiderFoot.tools is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the SpiderFoot open-source project or its maintainers. This website offers its own browser-based workflows, policies, and editorial content. See the full distinction on our About page.
