Everything below runs from the same screen and comes back in one result format. When we add a source, it shows up as another search on that screen, so there is nothing new to learn.
Locate & relatives, where they are and who is around them. Assets & employment, what they own and where the wages are. Court & public records, what is on file. Each runs exactly the searches it names, at 10% under running them separately.
Names and aliases, date of birth, SSN validation, current and previous addresses with validation detail, phones with carrier and line status, Death Master File check and high-risk flags, the workhorse of a locate, and where most files start.
Number to subscriber, with line type, carrier and when the number was last seen active. Works in reverse too: start from a number and work back to a name.
Occupancy history for an address, who has been associated with it and over what dates. Useful when the subject has moved but the household has not.
Relatives, neighbours, associates and roommates, found by linking people who share or have shared a residence with the subject, current or historical. The layer that resolves a file when the subject has gone quiet, and the one that matters most in protective and threat work.
Date of birth, SSN validation and identity verification, the checks that separate two people with the same name before you act on the wrong one.
Entity to FEIN, officers, registered agent and affiliated entities.
Felonies, misdemeanours, traffic matters and incarcerations, with charges filed, charge level, final disposition and date, sentencing and listed verifiers. Nationwide instant search plus statewide and county-level lookback, drawn from court records, Department of Corrections records and law enforcement records.
State DMV and government registration data: registered address, date of birth, VIN and tag, title issue date and status, licence number and origination, liens and lien type, and year, make, model, body type and colour.
Take an email address, phone number or username and find where that identifier is registered across the consumer internet (social platforms, marketplaces, messaging, dating, gaming, crypto) plus whether it appears in a known breach. The layer that resolves a subject who has no recent credit-header trail but lives online.
Locates here are built on premium credit header data, which is the identifying portion of a credit file rather than the credit report itself: name, known addresses, phone numbers and date-of-birth fragments, sourced from all three nationwide credit bureaus and from alternative bureaus that pick up people the big three cover thinly.
That base is the same premium tier TLOxp, IRBsearch and IDI are assembled from. What we add is the alternative-bureau layer on top, which is where thin-file and no-file subjects live: recent immigrants, young debtors, people living largely in cash. Any platform can resolve an easy subject. The hard ones are what decide a matter.
Every material field carries source attribution, and each result is marked single or corroborated depending on how many independent sources agree on it. So you get more depth, and more signal about which of it you can act on. See the full comparison.
On top of that sit public record files: property and vehicle registries, business filings, court records, and licence data. Premium sources, billions of records, cross-referenced so that a result corroborated by two independent sources can be distinguished from one that rests on a single file.
The underlying files refresh continuously as bureaus, registries and courts report, address changes, new filings, new phone assignments. Every search you run queries the current file at that moment. We do not hold a periodic snapshot and re-serve it, and we do not return a previous customer's result to you as if it were fresh.
Your own results are kept for 30 days so you can re-open them, then purged. Re-run a subject three months on and you get what the sources say then, which is the whole point once someone has moved.
Header data carries no account numbers, balances, tradelines or scores, and nothing here is a consumer report under the FCRA. Results may not be used for credit, insurance, employment, housing or any other FCRA-permissible purpose. See compliance for what each permissible-purpose code does and does not allow.
Not at any price, not on request, and not by escalation. Deposit and securities account location is not a database lookup. It needs a permissible purpose reviewed by a person, and a wrong answer sends a writ to the wrong institution.
No product on this platform returns bank or brokerage account information, and there is no upgrade path, premium tier or internal escalation that changes that.
We will say the awkward part plainly, because you would find it anyway. Our parent, NWISI, is a licensed investigative agency, and account location is work a licensed agency can lawfully perform. That is a separate engagement, under separate authority, with a separate file. It does not run on this platform, nothing here routes to it, and holding an account on Lodestone Data gives you no access to it. If an account locate is what your matter needs, engage a licensed agency directly, ours or anyone else's.
Lodestone Data is a data platform. It is not an investigative agency and does not perform investigative work.
We are in open beta, and we mean it literally. Fourteen searches run against live data right now. Eight more are built, priced and visible in the app but greyed out, because no source is provisioned for them yet. Until one is, they run nothing and bill nothing.
Person search; relatives and associates; phone lookup; reverse phone; email search; identity verification; SSN validation; deceased check; employment locator; digital footprint; OFAC and watchlist; bankruptcies, liens and judgments; evictions, suits and judgments; and vehicle search.
Criminal records, business reports and professional licences. Our provider lists all three and none has yet returned a record, so they appear in the app marked coming soon and you cannot run or be charged for one by accident. They go live the day a real call comes back, and not before.
Published rates are what you are charged today, and every search shows its price before it runs. We reserve the right to change published rates as coverage and our own costs move. If that happens, it is announced before it takes effect and never applied retroactively to searches you have already run. Beta accounts are not locked into a term.
These are not billed. They run on the results you already paid for, because a result you have to interpret by hand is only half delivered.
| What runs | On what | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Identity separation | Every name match | One profile per person with its own SSN, date of birth, age and address history, ranked against the identifiers you searched |
| Confidence scoring | Every address, phone and email | A score out of five computed from the record, with the reasons attached |
| County assessor lookup | The two most recent addresses per profile | Owner of record where published, assessed value, acreage, land use, zoning, and transfers with both parties and the recorder's document number |
| Findings brief | Every report | The freshest address and phone, whether the file has gone stale, whether the addresses span more states than one life plausibly does, and what was not returned |
Assessor coverage is eleven Washington counties today, and any county we have not mapped says so on the page. Outside them you still get the aerial view of the parcel, just without the assessment and the owner of record. Mortgages and liens live in the county Auditor's index, a separate system, so they fall outside this search.
At $5 a month, the comparison costs you almost nothing.
