Show HN: I built an OSINT tools directory

27 pointsby r00m101last Wednesday at 9:26 AM9 commentsview on HN

I work on R00M 101, a Reddit-based OSINT profiler. While building it, I realized most open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools are scattered across GitHub, outdated blog posts, or random Discords.

So I put together a public-facing directory of 100+ OSINT tools used by analysts, journalists, and security folks, free, filterable, and categorized by risk, platform, and use case.

The idea was to make something useful and no-friction.

Built with static HTML + SQL backend + a lot of caffeine. Would love feedback on how to improve the UX or tool curation.

If anyone wants to contribute tools or help moderate, that’s also welcome.

Thanks!

Any way to turn off the special effects?

This is built with Lovable.dev, it would have cost you a lot less caffeine without that
