PeekYou

PeekYou places the individual at the center of the Internet. For every public weblink, PeekYou tries to answer the question, “Who made it?” or, where applicable, “Whom is it about?” So far, we’ve answered those questions for a billion links and counting. Our technology analyzes content from over sixty social sites, news sources, homepages and blog platforms and identifies the actual people behind it, combining their scattered digital footprints into a comprehensive record of their online identity.

PeekYou is the Web’s leading best people search engine, serving over 6 million monthly visitors, and according to Quantcast it is one of the top-500 sites in the US. The site was launched in stealth mode in July 2006 and was relaunched in November 2009 in the current incarnation.
