Company Overview

TruthFinder is a people search engine that helps you reconnect with estranged family, locate old friends, keep your family safe, and manage your online reputation. Their reports are easy to navigate and contain a wealth of information you can't find with a regular search engine. TruthFinder is the perfect tool for anyone who wants to stay connected with loved ones or keep tabs on their neighbors.

You might be able to reconnect with old friends, classmates, and even ex-lovers if you use TruthFinder. Input a first and last name, and you may discover a report on TruthFinder that includes phone numbers, address history, and online profiles. 

With TruthFinder, you can protect your family and get peace of mind. Look up anyone before sending your kids on a playdate, double-check that the person you want to buy a used TV from doesn't have any red flags in their background report, and more.

To assist you in putting any suspicious you may have to rest, search the names of your neighbors on TruthFinder. If their report reveals a criminal record or sex offender status, you should reconsider inviting them into your home.
