About to partner up?
Check the public track record.
Founders, investors and partners leave public trails: company pages, talks, articles, code. Ossary connects those clues to the profile you were given and separates them from same-name results.

Start with what you actually want to know
- “Do public sources support the roles this founder lists on LinkedIn?”
- “Which projects does this partner’s GitHub actually show?”
- “What have articles said about this person’s previous company?”
Clues first, then connections
- Public profiles you supply, read through public APIs where available.
- Company and project pages those profiles link to.
- Dated public statements arranged in a timeline.
- Same-name results, kept apart and labelled.
A detective with boundaries
- Read private or locked accounts, messages or member-only pages.
- Guess where someone lives or works when no public page says so.
- Use data brokers, credit files or background-check databases.
- Treat a shared name as proof that two pages describe one person.
Straight answers
Is this due diligence?
It is a first public-web check. It does not replace legal, financial or registry checks for a deal.
Can I export the case?
Yes. Cases can be exported with their sources, and you can delete them at any time.
