Profile links from a photo upload.

Image to socials accepts a face photo and returns candidate profile links on supported networks. The pipeline detects whether a face is present, then lists URLs and handles that visually resemble the upload. Treat output as investigative leads; verify manually before reporting.

You typically receive face_detected status, one or more platform-specific profile URLs, optional handle strings, and visual-match style hints. From there, Social Username and TikTok modules confirm whether those accounts are still active and what public metadata they expose.

What you upload

  • Clear frontal or three-quarter face photos work best
  • Group shots may reduce match quality; crop when possible
  • No video; single image per request on API v1

What comes back

Photo
face_detected@watermark_handle

Twitch · example.com/analyst_demo

Lens · 2 visual matches (illustrative)

Face detected badge plus example profile and lens-style matches.

Results include platform labels, profile URLs, and optional watermark or handle hints when the model finds them. Misses return an empty list with face_detected false so you do not confuse a failed scan with no matches.

Chain with username OSINT

Copy any handle from a match card into Social Username or TikTok search to confirm the account is still active.
