Validates the existence of registered accounts across social & shopping platforms and extracts rich identity intelligence (Names, Photos, IDs).

Project description

Aarya (आर्य)

The Advanced OSINT Email Scanner

PyPI version License: GPL v3

Aarya is an OSINT tool that validates the existence of email addresses across social media, shopping, and professional platforms (e.g. Instagram, Amazon, Spotify).

  • It leverages Asynchronous HTTP Requests (httpx) to perform lightning-fast, concurrent checks without the overhead of a web browser.
  • It silently verifies accounts using "Forgot Password" APIs, registration endpoints, and public profile scrapes.

Aarya Demo

🚀 Features

  • Deep Analysis: Goes beyond simple "Yes/No" results to extract rich metadata like Google Maps reviews, Profile Pictures, Gaia IDs, and ProtonMail key creation dates.
  • Full Visibility: Reports positive hits, negative results, rate limits, and errors explicitly so you never miss a detail.
  • Smart Stealth: Automatically fetches the latest real-world User-Agents from the web to bypass simple bot detection filters.
  • Elegant UI: Professional, minimalist CLI design with responsive tables and clean link wrapping.

🆚 Aarya vs. Holehe

During development of this tool I came to know that another great tool was already there which was similar to Aarya.

here is why Aarya outperforms.

Feature Holehe Aarya
Primary Output Email Existence (True/False) Identity Intelligence (Real Names, Photos, Maps Reviews)
Reliability Prone to False Negatives High (Explicitly detects Rate Limits vs. Not Found)
Stealth Static Headers Dynamic (Auto-fetches latest User-Agents)
Focus Quantity (120+ Sites) Quality (Deep scans of High-Value Targets)
UI/UX Basic CLI Modern (Rich Tables, Clickable Links, Summary Panels)

🔍 Use Cases in Recon & Intel

1. Verification & Validation

Confirm if a target email is active. A "ghost" email (no accounts anywhere) is a high-risk indicator for fraud or burner accounts, whereas an email with established accounts verifies the identity exists.

2. Social Engineering Context

Aarya helps Red Teamers map the digital footprint of a target. Knowing a target uses Duolingo or Wattpad allows for highly tailored phishing pretexts (e.g., "Your Duolingo streak is in danger" vs generic corporate emails).

3. Identity Correlation

By extracting unique identifiers like the Google Gaia ID or ProtonMail public key date, Aarya helps correlate an email address with real-world timelines, locations, and other digital identities across the web.

4. Credibility of Credential Reuse (Post-Exploitation)

If a target's password is compromised (via phishing or a data breach) for one verified platform, Aarya provides a precise roadmap of other active services where that same password might be reused, highlighting critical risks for credential stuffing attacks.

5. Corporate OpSec Auditing

Security teams can scan corporate email domains to detect "Shadow IT" or policy violations. Discovering that an employee used their official name@company.com address to sign up for Instagram or Amazon highlights potential attack surfaces and credential leakage risks.

6. OSINT Pivot Points

Aarya acts as a signpost for deeper investigation. A confirmed Google account signals an investigator to search for public Maps reviews or Photos. A confirmed Instagram account invites a search for public profile associated with that email. The tool identifies where to look next for public data.

7. Credibility Analysis (Anti-Fraud)

In fraud investigations, account age acts as a trust signal. An email address linked to a ProtonMail key created 3 years ago or a Google account with Maps contributions from 2019 is far more likely to be legitimate than a "fresh" email with absolutely no digital footprint.
