What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded

A curated directory of free open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools and resources, browsable at osintframework.com and stored as structured JSON (arf.). It organizes links by category with metadata like pricing, OPSEC notes, and status, originally from an information security perspective.

Use cases

  • find free OSINT tools for reconnaissance
  • gather information about a domain or email address
  • look up OSINT resources for a penetration test footprinting phase
  • discover people-search and username-search sites
  • find Google dorks for intelligence gathering
  • browse OSINT tools by category with OPSEC considerations

When to choose

  • you need a curated index of free OSINT resources rather than a single tool
  • you want structured metadata (pricing, status, OPSEC) about OSINT tools
  • you are doing reconnaissance or footprinting and need to discover relevant services

When to avoid

  • you need an actual scanning or data-collection tool rather than a link directory
  • you want automated OSINT pipelines - this is a reference catalog, not an execution engine
  • you need guaranteed up-to-date links, since external resources may go dead or paywalled
