Facehunch

Facehunch is a photo-search workspace and guide library for people trying to understand where an image may have appeared and what a result actually supports. Start with a photo you have permission to use, explore candidate source pages, and inspect the surrounding context before drawing a conclusion.

Its guides explain the difference between reverse image search, which can help locate copies or variations of an image, and facial similarity, which asks a different question. A thumbnail alone is not enough: captions, publication context and the original page can change how a match should be interpreted.

Use Facehunch to learn an image-source research workflow and keep uncertainty visible while reviewing results. The main workspace, fictional example and restricted API test are distinct. Visual similarity does not verify identity, and the product does not promise private-profile access or formal background checks. Review upload handling and use only photographs you are authorized to submit.
