Find people by name, phone, email or address and get their address history, known relatives and name variants from public records. Confidence-scored, mode-aware, and never charged on zero matches.
New optional input include_contact_details (off by default). When on,
the Actor also opens each matched profile's detail page to pull phone
numbers, emails and full street addresses. This roughly doubles run time
(one extra browser page per profile) and is strictly time-bounded — if a
detail page is blocked or slow, that profile just comes back at search level
and the run still succeeds. Leave it off for a fast address-history /
relatives lookup.

Fetching rebuilt on a real browser — the Actor returns results again.
The people-search sources had hardened their bot protection to the point
where plain HTTP requests were fully blocked (403 on every request), so the
Actor was returning nothing. Fetching now runs on a real headless Chromium
with realistic browser-fingerprint injection and automatic session
rotation, which gets past the challenge.
Runs take longer than before (roughly 1–4 minutes) because the browser
has to load each page and ride out the anti-bot check, with retries on a
fresh session when one is blocked. In exchange, you get real records back.
TruePeopleSearch is the primary source and comes through reliably;
FastPeopleSearch is used when it clears; ThatsThem is frequently
unavailable. Partial results from whichever sources responded are still
merged, scored and returned.
Phone numbers / emails live on the per-profile detail pages and are not
fetched yet — current output is name, age, current + previous locations,
relatives and the profile link.
Default run memory raised to 2 GB (Chromium needs the headroom).
Every run returns at least a status row (never an empty, failed-looking run).
0.1.x / 0.2.x — 2026-07 → 2026-08
Multi-source skip tracing (name / phone / email / address) with clustering,
confidence scoring, relatives and address history; per-query isolation.
