PimEyes is an advanced, AI-powered online face search engine and reverse image search tool. It scans the open internet to locate pictures containing specific faces, helping individuals discover where their images are published online. Using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning, PimEyes empowers users to protect their privacy, audit copyright infringement, and defend against threats like scammers or identity thieves. The service focuses on public web content, intentionally excluding social media and private platforms to maintain its privacy-centric mission.
How It Works

- AI-Powered Analysis: The system analyzes your photo and creates a unique "image fingerprint" using advanced AI and facial recognition.
- Reverse Image Search: PimEyes searches an extensive database of publicly accessible web content, focusing on facial features to find matches.
- View Results: Within seconds, view links to websites where similar or matching photos appear, including source image URLs.
- Subscriber Features: Subscribers can access full source links, set up alerts for new appearances, and, with the PROtect plan, initiate takedown requests for unwanted images.
