PimEyes is an advanced face recognition search engine, a reverse image search tool, and a photo search mechanism used to find which websites publish your photos online.

Good example why it is important to avoid private Photos on internet, a lot of crap like this app out there.

I uploaded a celebrity photo and it only returned a few TV screengrabs and promo shots. Not even a fan selfie.

Premium user?

Nope. But if the search results didn’t find a single social media pic, it vibes like a scam. It’s probably just hooked into Google image search or something.

Maybe, but reverse image search with face recognition is a big risk, PimEye isn’t the only one, there are also FaceCheck, ProFace Finder and some other which are using AI, accessible for any s…normal.
