TruthFinder is an online background check service that uses publicly available records to find out information about a person. Users simply need to enter key information such as a part of the name, city of residence and so on, in order to obtain a full report about the person.
The service simply compiles information from government records that are available for the public to see. It then compiles everything into a single, comprehensive report for the user to view. All of the information it uses are legal and can be searched by the user themselves.
The records they use are county records, federal records, state records, information in the deep web, and data from social media websites.

For example, you cannot use it for employment screening purposes, for screening for domestic workers (nannies, babysitters, etc.), for screening tenants, and for screening in professional services.
