Public research utilities / No account required
Free OSINT tools.
Use them with a method.
Build searches, prepare tracing variants and organise the research process. These tools assist collection. They do not verify a finding for you.
Inputs stay in your browser until you choose an external link. External services receive the query you open and apply their own privacy terms. Do not use these utilities to send sensitive case information.
Advanced search builder
Combine a phrase, search terms, a domain restriction and file type. Search operators are hints to the search engine, not guarantees.
Username search launcher
Create links to public profiles and indexed searches. This does not scan services or establish that a profile exists or belongs to the subject.
Reverse-image search helper
Prepare search links from a public HTTPS image URL. No image is uploaded by Rodcha. For private files, open a provider directly and review its terms before uploading.
A provider may fetch and retain the linked image after you open its search. Do not use private, tokenised or confidential URLs.
Phone format variants
Generate exact-match search variants for an AU, NZ or international number. Formatting does not validate assignment, ownership or active service.
Domain & IP lookup launcher
Open relevant public lookup services for a domain, IPv4 or IPv6 address. This tool does not retrieve DNS, scan a host or confirm infrastructure ownership.
Investigation checklist
Create a practical research sequence by enquiry type. The checklist is a process aid, not legal advice or a substitute for your organisation's procedures.
Use within your authority
Collection is not a conclusion.
Use the public toolkit for lawful research. A result can be incomplete, outdated, misattributed or wrong. Verify independently, document uncertainty and respect applicable privacy laws and platform rules.
