About:
Maigret is a powerful OSINT tool that identifies associated accounts for a given username across thousands of websites. It performs recursive searches and verifies account existence by parsing profile data. This tool is essential for gathering a comprehensive dossier on an individual's digital footprint.
Key Features:
  • Scans over 3000 websites for username presence
  • Recursive search capabilities to find more associated accounts
  • Extracts personal information from public profiles
  • Supports JSON and HTML output for reports
  • Uses asynchronous requests for fast scanning
Use Cases:
  • Digital forensics and incident response investigations
  • OSINT reconnaissance for security assessments
  • Verifying digital footprint and identity consistency
Alternatives:
  • sherlock – Maigret is generally faster, supports recursive searches, and has a larger site database compared to the original Sherlock project.
  • blackbird – Similar functionality, but Maigret offers more detailed profile data extraction and better site categorization.
