What's New in X-Ray.Contact: Free Basic Search, AI Insights & More
The latest X-Ray.Contact update brings one of the biggest platform improvements to date. We've expanded our global data coverage, added 100 free Basic searches every month across core identifiers, improved AI-powered profile analysis, and redesigned investigation workflows to help users verify identities faster and with less manual effort.
These updates are designed for everyone who works with digital footprints — from OSINT researchers and journalists to recruiters, compliance teams, and individuals who simply want to make more informed decisions.
Here's what's new and how these changes can improve your investigations.
Why This Update Matters
Digital investigations are becoming more complex as people's online identities spread across websites, social platforms, public records, and online services. Finding one data point is often simple, but connecting it to a reliable identity profile is where the real work begins.
This X-Ray.Contact update helps reduce that complexity. With broader global coverage, free monthly Basic searches, stronger AI-assisted profile analysis, and a cleaner workflow, users can move from a single identifier to useful context faster.
Whether you're verifying an unknown contact, performing due diligence, researching a potential business partner, or conducting OSINT work, these improvements make the process easier to start, review, and document.
What's New in This X-Ray.Contact Release?
The latest release introduces several updates designed to make online investigations faster, more intuitive, and easier to scale. From expanded data coverage to free monthly Basic searches and enhanced profile analysis, the platform now helps users gather and interpret publicly available information with fewer manual steps.
Here are the key improvements:
| Update | What Changed | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Next-Gen Data Repository | 2.6B+ new data points from 204 sources | Broader global data coverage for more comprehensive searches |
| Free Basic Search | 100 free Basic searches every month | Users can start investigations for free |
| New Profile Fields | Legal Name tags and gender indicators | Better context when reviewing multiple discovered names |
| Streamlined Navigation | Structured sections and improved navigation | Faster access to the most relevant profile information |
| PDF Export | One-click profile export | Better reporting, documentation, and team sharing |
| Enhanced AI Analysis | Better data organization and AI-generated insights | Less manual analysis and faster decision-making |
How Does Free Basic Search Help You Start an Investigation?
Most online investigations begin with just one piece of information — an email address, phone number, username, or social profile URL. The first step is often to verify whether that identifier is connected to publicly available information before investing more time in deeper research.
Start with the Information You Already Have
X-Ray.Contact now includes 100 free Basic searches every month, allowing users to quickly check core identifiers and validate publicly available identity signals without additional costs.
Verify Before You Investigate Further
Basic Search helps confirm names, contact details, usernames, and other publicly available information, making it easier to decide whether a case requires more comprehensive analysis.
Continue with Advanced Search When You Need More Context
When additional insights are needed, Advanced Search provides enriched profile information, AI-assisted summaries, risk factors, and broader digital footprint analysis, helping users build a more complete picture from the same investigation.
Why Does More Data Mean Better Identity Verification?
Reliable identity verification depends on seeing the bigger picture. The more publicly available sources that can be connected, the easier it becomes to validate information, uncover relationships between identifiers, and build a complete digital footprint.
The new Next-Gen Data Repository adds 2.6 billion data points from 204 additional sources, expanding X-Ray.Contact's global coverage and increasing the amount of information available for analysis. This broader dataset is especially valuable when a person's online presence spans multiple platforms, regions, or services.
The new data coverage includes:
| Region | Share of New Data |
|---|---|
| United States | 40% |
| Russia | 20% |
| Europe | 20% |
| Asia | 20% |
Together, these 204 new sources strengthen X-Ray.Contact's ability to support cross-border searches across the United States, Europe, Asia, and Russia.
By combining information from a wider range of sources, X-Ray.Contact makes it easier to connect emails, phone numbers, usernames, social profiles, and other publicly available identity signals into a more complete profile.
How Does X-Ray.Contact Help You Analyze Investigation Results Faster?
OSINT research often produces duplicate contacts, conflicting records, aliases, and scattered profile details. The latest X-Ray.Contact improvements help users review investigation results faster by making profiles cleaner, easier to navigate, and more structured.
Enhanced AI Analysis
Improved AI-assisted analysis helps summarize profile information, reduce repetitive signals, and surface relevant identity details more clearly. Instead of spending time sorting raw data manually, users can focus on interpreting findings and deciding what to verify next.
Better Identity Context
New profile fields add useful context during review. Legal Name tags highlight names found in official registers, while gender indicators help users interpret identity signals when several names or partial records appear in one profile.
Faster Profile Navigation
Large profiles are now easier to work with thanks to structured sections and improved navigation. Users can jump directly to the information they need, rather than manually scrolling through long pages, making profile review faster and more manageable.
How Does PDF Export Simplify Investigation Reporting?
Investigation results are most useful when they can be saved, shared, and reviewed later. With PDF Export, X-Ray.Contact makes it easier to turn a completed profile into a clear report in one click.
Save a Full Profile in One Click
Users can export a structured profile without manually copying details into separate documents. This helps preserve findings in a consistent format and reduces repetitive reporting work.
Share Findings With a Team
PDF files are useful for internal reviews, team discussions, compliance checks, recruiting workflows, and due diligence cases. Instead of sending scattered screenshots or notes, users can share one organized profile export.
Keep a Clear Record of Your Research
Exported profiles help teams maintain a documented record of identity verification work, OSINT research, and background checks. This is especially helpful when you need to add findings to a case file, audit trail, due diligence materials, investigation summaries, or internal report.

Frequently Asked Questions About the X-Ray.Contact Update
Is Basic Search really unlimited?
Basic Search includes 100 free credits every month. For most users, that is enough for regular identity checks, quick OSINT lookups, and early-stage verification before deciding whether a deeper Advanced Search is needed.

Basic Search supports four main identifiers: email address, phone number, username, and social profile URL. This makes it useful when you have one starting clue and want to quickly check whether it connects to publicly available identity signals.
When should I use Advanced Search instead of Basic Search?
Use Advanced Search when you need richer profile data, AI-assisted summaries, risk factors, additional identity context, or a more complete digital footprint analysis. For a detailed breakdown, compare Basic and Advanced Search capabilities before starting a deeper investigation.
