How TruthFinder Is Leveraging Public Records To Help Reunite Friends And Families

Our CEO, Steven Gray, and CTO, Shiem Edelbrock, recently spoke with Forbes about how PeopleConnect products are utilizing proprietary software to help create connections in ways that seemed impossible just a few years ago.

In PeopleConnect’s latest media writeup, some of our team leaders share how advancements in the way we aggregate data are leading to more reliable background reports and greater opportunities for search matches.

“Our customers are really looking for data that’s as real-time as possible, especially when it comes to being informed,” - Steven Gray, CEO of PeopleConnect

We’ve been in the people search industry for over 13 years and with that experience comes a deeper knowledge and understanding of how public records aggregation works.

“TruthFinder aggregates publicly available data from a variety of sources, and we leverage our own proprietary entity resolution engine to quickly and affordably provide information on, really, any adult in the United States,” Gray explained to Forbes.

The advancements that PeopleConnect has made in the arena of people search software have given our brands a unique advantage over other ways to find information about people.

If you’re going to try to use basic search techniques like search engines, you should know that these methods “only have what's available via the public web, and even not all of that,” Edelbrock explained to Forbes.

So what’s missing from your run-of-the-mill search engine results that you can get from a PeopleConnect-powered background report? You’ll likely be surprised at how much more information is available online than you may be expecting. Methodically cross-referencing that information to ensure completeness in reporting is what makes our platforms so powerful and gives us an edge over basic search results.
