Why choose DeepSearch?
Understand the public presence
For a TruthFinder comparison, start with your actual question. DeepSearch helps you explore public profiles and mentions around a name.
Narrow down a common name
Compare a known city, employer or biography with the public details available for each possible match.
Continue through a public handle
A username can provide another path when a name produces several unrelated people.
Follow a more specific clue
Switch to an email address you already have and inspect where it appears on public pages.
Keep different people separate
Review the source context before joining facts from different profiles into one picture.
Look at the evidence directly
Read the original public pages to understand the dates, wording and context behind the information shown.
Review your own visible details
Research your own name or handle to see which public sources describe you and what they currently say.
Ask why a result is relevant
Discuss a possible match and check the supporting links before treating a lead as a conclusion.
What can you look up with DeepSearch?
People / Name
A name can lead to several different people. Compare public profiles, a city or workplace, then follow a matching detail to make your research more specific.
Social Media Search
A social handle gives you another route beyond a report. Look for matching public accounts and compare the details they share before connecting them.
Phone
Received an unfamiliar call? Check the number, then research a related name or business in the same account to understand more about the contact.
Email Lookup
Start with the address behind an unexpected email. Explore related public pages and compare the sender's claimed company with its own online presence.
Company Search
A background report about a person does not explain a whole business. Look into its website and available records when evaluating a new contact or seller.
VIN
A used-car listing connects a vehicle with a seller. Check the VIN and compare the available vehicle details with the person, number and listing you are researching.
Photo
When you have a profile or listing picture, search that image directly. Matching websites can provide a useful new source alongside a name or phone search.
Photo location
Explore a place shown in a photo using signs, buildings and landmarks. Compare the visual clues with other sources as you narrow down possible locations.

TruthFinder is a people-search and public-record service offering people reports, background searches and reverse phone and email lookups. Its consumer products help users research available records about a person or contact. What appears in a report depends on the search, sources and plan.
DeepSearch is useful when you want to follow public web clues across several kinds of searches. A name can lead to a public profile, an email to a company, and a photo to another website. The 8 lookup tools share one account, so your research can continue beyond the first report.
DeepSearch lookups require paid access, with Pro at $18/month (USD). TruthFinder's detailed lookup and report access is also tied to paid products. A free app download or an initial search does not mean every report is free. Choose according to the searches you need and the access included.
DeepSearch Pro is $18/month (USD), with one weekly allowance shared across 8 tools. TruthFinder sells paid access whose report types and lookup coverage depend on the selected offer. Compare the renewal period, total charge, included searches and any report extras before choosing. See DeepSearch plans.
DeepSearch helps you research public profiles, web mentions, images and other available sources. It does not provide a comprehensive criminal-background report. Choose it when you want to explore and compare public clues about a person, contact or business; specific record-report needs require a service that offers those records. Explore people search.
Yes. Select Phone for a number with its country code, or Email Lookup for an address. Explore the available details and related public pages, then continue with a matching name, username or company. TruthFinder also offers phone and email lookup products. Explore reverse phone lookup.
Yes. DeepSearch's Social Media Search uses a handle to look for matching public profiles. This is a different starting point from reading social details that may appear inside a people report. You can then investigate a profile picture or associated business. Explore username search.
Yes. Upload an image with Photo search to find matches and the websites using them. You can also select Photo location to investigate visible clues about a place. Neither an image match nor a suggested place establishes a person's identity or live location. Explore reverse image search.
DeepSearch can research public web information and accepts country codes for phone searches. Results depend on the country, query and available sources. TruthFinder's people-record offering is centred on U.S. public records; a translated page does not imply complete records for every country.
Compare several details, such as a name, workplace, location and public profile. Common names and reassigned numbers can create misleading matches. DeepSearch lets you follow source pages and compare more than one clue before reaching a conclusion.
No. The services have separate accounts. Manage your TruthFinder subscription with TruthFinder or the app store where you subscribed. Removing a listing is a separate request to the service holding that listing. You can start a DeepSearch search without importing a TruthFinder report.
No. DeepSearch is for personal informational research, not employment, housing, credit or insurance decisions. It is not a consumer reporting agency. This comparison covers everyday lookup and research needs, not a screening service.
Compare TruthFinder alternatives by how you investigate
Choose DeepSearch when you want to explore a specific public-information question and keep following the useful clues. A name can lead to a profile, a company or an image that deserves its own search.
Each lookup gives you another way to investigate the question you actually have. This suits personal research where understanding the source of a claim matters as much as collecting several details into a report.
Build a people search around details you recognize
A shared name is only the beginning of a search. Add the location, workplace or other public context you know, then compare candidate profiles and web mentions for details that fit your inquiry.
You can follow a relevant username or email when it becomes available. Moving to a more specific input helps you examine the connection instead of letting a broad name match carry more weight than it deserves.
Check a contact through more than one input
A new contact might provide a number, an email address and a photograph. DeepSearch lets you research the public information associated with each one, creating several points of comparison for the account they have given you.
A reverse image search can show where a picture is reused, while email research can surface a public business contact page. Reading those findings together can reveal which part of the story needs a closer look.
Ask what supports a finding
Open the source pages behind the results and examine their dates, wording and context. An old public mention may help explain a connection without establishing that the same detail is still current.
Use DeepSearch's follow-up conversation to compare sources or clarify an unfamiliar term. You can then return to the original material and decide whether to narrow the search, investigate a company or pursue another identifier.
Move to a research workflow with clear access terms
If a search for TruthFinder alternatives led you here, start by naming the task: reconnecting, researching an unfamiliar contact or understanding your public presence. DeepSearch supports personal informational research, rather than regulated screening for hiring, housing or credit.
Lookups require paid access. Compare the current allowance with the searches you expect to run, then begin with one useful clue. Any existing TruthFinder account and renewal remain separate from the research you start in DeepSearch.
