Main features

Supports 5,900 sites (see full list). A default run checks the 500 highest-ranked sites by traffic; pass -a to scan everything, or --tags to narrow by category/country.
Embeddable in Python projects — import maigret and run searches programmatically (see library usage).
Extracts all available information about the account owner from profile pages and site APIs, including links to other accounts.
Performs recursive search using discovered usernames and other IDs.
Allows filtering by tags (site categories, countries).
Detects and partially bypasses blocks, censorship, and CAPTCHA.
Fetches an auto-updated site database from GitHub each run (once per 24 hours), and falls back to the built-in database if offline.
Works with Tor and I2P websites; able to check domains.
Ships with a web interface for browsing results as a graph and downloading reports in every format from a single page.
Optional AI analysis mode (--ai) that turns raw findings into a short investigation summary using an OpenAI-compatible API.
