You may know a person's name, but searching it on Google often returns hundreds of unrelated results. Sometimes you know a little more about them—their profession, company, city, or another detail—but combining that information into an effective search can still be time-consuming.
That's why I built the People Search Tool.
It helps you create targeted Google searches using just two pieces of information, making it easier to find publicly available information about a person.
What Is the People Search Tool?
The People Search Tool is a free web application that helps you search for people online more efficiently.
All you need to enter is:
- Person's Name
- A Clue or Additional Information
The clue can be anything you already know, such as:
- Job title
- Company name
- City or country
- College or university
- Username
- Industry
- Hobby
- Any other identifying detail
The tool then generates multiple search queries that you can open in Google with a single click.
Example
Suppose you're looking for someone named:
Name
Abhinav Singwal
Clue
Penetration Tester
Use People Search: https://yogsec.github.io/People-Search/
The tool creates multiple search queries that help you locate publicly available profiles, articles, websites, and other online information related to that person.
Instead of manually trying different combinations, the tool does the work for you.
Why I Built This Tool
Many people spend several minutes changing search terms, adding new keywords, and trying different websites before finding the right person.
I wanted to simplify that process.
With just two input fields, the People Search Tool generates multiple search queries in seconds, helping you reach relevant results faster.
Who Can Use It?
The People Search Tool is useful for anyone who needs to find publicly available information online, including:
- Recruiters searching for candidates
- Journalists verifying public information
- Students researching authors or speakers
- Security researchers performing OSINT
- Bug bounty hunters
- Event organizers looking for speaker profiles
- Anyone trying to locate a person's public online presence
