Product pricing strategy
02
Free
Consensus OSINT does not print a price. The pages opened on 17 Oct 2026 are the GitHub repository, the v0.4.11 release, and the README. The license field is GPL-3.0, the README badge says GPL-3.0-or-later, and the install is a pip extra named modules,pdf. The project does not host a metered search of your queries. You run it locally. There is no seat, no credit pack, and no enterprise SKU on those pages. The homepage field is https://osint.ngo. This listing does not turn that organization site into a rate card. If a later release adds a paid hosted search, cite that page on its own date. v0.4.11, published 17 Oct 2026, is the release reviewed here.
Utility and features
03
The Consensus README describes a unified lookup for usernames, email addresses, and phone numbers, plus bulk runs. The install line it prints is `python -m pip install "consensus-osint[modules,pdf]"` and then `consensus`. On Windows it says to use `py`, and on macOS `python3`. The repository was created on 8 Oct 2026, the homepage field is https://osint.ngo, and the API push date on 17 Oct 2026 was the same day. Release v0.4.11 is named “Consensus 0.4.11” and was published 17 Oct 2026. The README badge says GPL-3.0-or-later while the GitHub license field says GPL-3.0. Cite the field you mean.
- Two module counts. The README says 9,700+. The GitHub description says 7,900+. Both were visible on 17 Oct 2026.
- v0.4.11 that day. The latest release was published 17 Oct 2026 and named Consensus 0.4.11.
- A lead, not an identity. The README says shared details are leads and that a match does not prove who owns the account.
The module count is also two sentences. The README center text says 9,700+ modules and site rules from 19 open-source projects, maintained with a weekly review target. The GitHub repository description says 7,900+ lookup modules standardised from 19 projects. This listing does not pick a winner and did not count the modules. A match can include a profile name, a biography, and linked accounts. The README says a match is a lead, not proof of a person's identity, and that errors do not establish absence. An important block says to use it responsibly and to verify important matches at their source. This listing did not run a lookup.
- 1
Install the modules extra the README prints, then run the version you mean. v0.4.11 was current on 17 Oct 2026.
- 2
Quote both module counts, or say which sentence you opened. Do not average 9,700 and 7,900.
- 3
Read the identity warning before you save a hit. Verify it at the source site.
- 4
Do not use a phone or email lookup in this directory as a procedure for finding a private person.
Caveats
04
Two public counts were both live on 17 Oct 2026: 9,700+ in the README and 7,900+ in the GitHub description. A slide that picks one without the date is wrong even if the other number was true earlier. The weekly review target is a maintenance goal, not a count of sites that answered.
The README says shared details are leads, not proof of identity, and that a match is not proof a person owns the account. This listing does not walk through an email or phone lookup of a person, and it does not treat a linked biography as identification. Errors and inconclusive responses do not prove the account is absent. Verify a match at the site that holds it. GPL terms apply if you redistribute the tool. 134 stars was the API count on the review date.
Potential use cases
06
- A weekly scan wants a module count in the header. On 17 Oct 2026 the README said 9,700+ modules and site rules from 19 projects, with a weekly review target. The GitHub description said 7,900+ lookup modules standardised from those 19 projects. Put both sentences in the note, or name the page you opened. Do not average them. The weekly target is a maintenance goal. It is not a count of sites that responded.
- Install from the README line `python -m pip install "consensus-osint[modules,pdf]"` and run `consensus`. Release v0.4.11 was published 17 Oct 2026. The GitHub license field was GPL-3.0 and the README badge said GPL-3.0-or-later. Record which string you are relying on if you redistribute the tool. The API reported 134 stars and 19 forks that day. The homepage field is https://osint.ngo, which is not a price page.
- A match includes a profile name, a biography, and a linked account. The README says a match is a lead, not proof of a person's identity, and that errors do not establish absence. A second line says shared details are leads, not proof of identity, and that important matches should be verified at their source. This listing did not run a username, email, or phone lookup. Do not turn the README into steps for finding a private person. Open the site the hit names.
Hard cases
The case where the first result is easy to over-read.
One module count is picked as official
Both numbers were on public pages the same day. Choosing 9,700 because it is larger, or 7,900 because it is in the repository description, hides the conflict. Quote the sentence and the date. If a later release updates one page, check the other before you delete the old figure. A lookup that returns a biography still has to be opened at the source. The tool does not merge two accounts into one person.
