Intelligence X vs OSINTLeak
Intelligence X
Intelligence X is a search engine and archive for information that has been leaked or published, searched by selectors such as email addresses, domains, IP addresses and CIDR ranges. Its sources include pastes, data leaks, stealer logs, Tor and I2P darknet sites, WHOIS records, Usenet and the public web, with several sources limited to paid accounts, and it keeps copies of what it indexes. It was founded in 2018 by Peter Kleissner and is based in Prague. A free tier is available, with paid plans for researchers, API use, identity monitoring portals and enterprises.
Pros
- Covers darknet, leak and stealer-log sources in one search
- Free tier for basic searches
- Published annual prices
Things to check

- Paid plans start at €2,500 a year
Pricing: Free tier. Researcher €2,500/year, API €7,000/year, Identity Portal €10,000/year, Enterprise €20,000/year.
OSINTLeak
OSINTLeak is a cloud-hosted breach intelligence platform whose page title describes it as a breach intelligence platform and stealer log search. It offers search across emails, usernames, phone numbers and other indicators with 17 or more search selectors, domain and IP intelligence, WHOIS, reverse image search and real-time monitoring, and it targets OSINT researchers, enterprises, governments and law enforcement. Pricing is published in US dollars from a free Community tier of 20 searches per day to a Developer tier at USD 250 per month with API access, and an Enterprise option from USD 6,500 per year. A Python client and command-line tool, pyosintleak, is published on GitHub and PyPI. The terms state the service is operated by BREACHGUARDS LLC, is available only to professional users, and that data is obtained from public and less public sources rather than purchased from threat actors; no address or jurisdiction is published. An opt-out page allows individuals to remove their email address from public search after verification.
Pros

- Public Python client and CLI on GitHub and PyPI for API automation
- Terms state data is not purchased from threat actors and the service is restricted to professional users
Things to check

- Access to stealer logs and leaked credentials raises legal and ethical questions a buyer must clear with counsel
