OSINT Framework

OSINT-Framework is a web-based intelligence resource map designed to help investigators and researchers quickly locate free open-source intelligence tools and data sources. Rather than functioning as an automated scanner, it organizes hundreds of OSINT resources into a structured, navigable interface grouped by investigation type, such as usernames, email addresses, domains, and social media. The project was originally created from an information security perspective but has since expanded to support journalists, analysts, and digital investigators across many disciplines. Its value lies in curation and discoverability, allowing users to pivot rapidly between relevant intelligence tools during investigations. The framework includes indicators showing whether a resource requires registration, manual editing, or local installation, improving workflow planning.
