### What does Sherlock Eye do?

Sherlock Eye is an AI-enhanced OSINT platform designed to speed up investigations. It pulls data from multiple open sources, correlates it, and presents connections in a structured way. Instead of manually checking dozens of tools, it centralises discovery covering usernames, domains, emails, and digital footprints.

It’s particularly useful for analysts who want faster pattern recognition, link analysis, and automated reporting support.

\
**The lowdown:** It’s a fast, AI-driven OSINT assistant that streamlines investigations and highlights connections. It’s excellent for speeding up research but works best alongside manual verification and other tools.

### How to Use:

**1. Create an account and log in.**

**2. Enter your investigation target (e.g. username, email, domain) and run the search.**

**3. Review results, connections, and visual outputs. Export or document findings, verifying key points manually.**

### Cost

* [ ] Free
* [ ] Partially Free
* [x] Paid

Paid subscription tiers.

## Data Processing

### Account Required:

* [x] Yes
* [ ] No

### Cookies:&#x20;

Cookies used are primarily authentication, security, and preference cookies set by Google and Facebook to maintain logged-in sessions, protect against fraud/abuse, and personalise services such as search results and location-based content.&#x20;

They don’t typically store direct personal data themselves but link to user accounts and activity, making them high-sensitivity from a tracking and security perspective.

### Use in Reporting

Sherlock Eye is useful for:

* Generating investigative leads.
* Mapping relationships between entities.
* Supporting background research.

Essentially, it’s most valuable when you need to go from “one clue” to “a mapped network” fast, making it a strong support tool in cyber investigations, journalism, and intelligence work, but not a substitute for verification.&#x20;

For example, it could be used to link a suspect’s different usernames across forums, gaming platforms, and social media to build a clearer profile.&#x20;

| **Capabilities**                            | **Limitations**                                       |
| ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| Automated OSINT data collection.            | Results depend on publicly available data.            |
| Link and relationship analysis.             | AI-generated insights may include false positives.    |
| Username/email/phone/domain investigations. | Limited transparency on some data sources.            |
| Visualisation of connections.               | Requires verification before use in formal reporting. |
| Exportation of results.                     | Requires login and paid subscription.                 |

### Summary

Sherlock Eye sits squarely in the analysis and correlation stage of the OSINT workflow with some overlap into collection. It’s not ideal as a sole source and you should always corroborate with primary evidence before publishing.

### Ownership

Individual ownership is not publicly disclosed but as in their [privacy policy](https://www.sherlockeye.io/privacy-policy) the platform is operated by a company called Sherlockeye Technology Ltd., which is registered in Brazil (CNPJ 57.793.041/0001-08).

### Ethical Considerations

* Only use legally obtained, publicly available data.
* Avoid intrusive or unethical targeting of individuals.
* Be mindful of privacy and data protection laws.
* Treat AI-generated findings as leads, not facts.
* Ensure responsible reporting and attribution.
