Reverse image search allows you to search the internet using an image instead of text. Upload a photo, and our AI-powered engine finds matching images, identifies people using face recognition, and discovers where the image appears online.

While Google reverse image search finds similar images, PeopleFinder goes much deeper:

• Face Recognition: We identify specific individuals, not just similar images
• Social Media Search: Find connected profiles across all platforms
• People Search: Discover names, locations, and background information
• Catfish Detection: Built-in tools to identify fake profiles

PeopleFinder supports most common image formats including JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, and WebP. Images can be up to 10MB in size. For best results with face search, use clear, well-lit photos.

Our face recognition technology achieves 99.2% accuracy in controlled tests. For best results:

• Use clear, front-facing photos
• Ensure good lighting
• Avoid heavily filtered or edited images
• Crop to focus on the face if possible

Our AI can work with various photo qualities, but results improve with higher quality images. Low resolution, blurry, or profile-angle photos may reduce accuracy. The face search still attempts to find matches but confidence scores may be lower.

Yes, your searches are completely private. We don't share your search history with third parties or the people you search for. Uploaded images are processed securely and not stored permanently.

No. PeopleFinder searches are anonymous. The person you're searching for will not be notified or aware that you've conducted a search.

• Secure payment processing through Stripe

Use our catfish detection tool by uploading their profile photo. Our system will search for that image across the internet. If it appears on multiple profiles, stock photo sites, or belongs to someone else, you've likely found a catfish.

Common red flags include:

• Refusing video calls or in-person meetings
• Photos that look too professional or perfect
• Asking for money or financial help
• Inconsistent stories or details
• Moving the relationship very fast
