Digital footprint of people and companies
The query assembles a file of the public presence of a person or a company on the web, in the press and on social networks. Every result arrives with its link, and every article with its date.
What is published about a person or a company, sorted and sourced.
Singula searches the open web, the press and social networks, and returns every result with its link. Whatever is identified as another person, a brand or another company with the same name leaves the file and is counted. The file arrives sorted into seventeen sections.
What one query covers
A single query sweeps the open web, the press and social networks. Everything returns sorted by source type.
Web presence
The public results under the name, no duplicates, with the passage where it appears. Each one states whether it is about the person or company you looked up, its tone and whether it reports an adverse fact.
Press with date and tone
Each article arrives with the outlet that published it, its date and its tone toward whoever you looked up. When it reports an adverse fact, it carries the type of fact and the role of whoever you looked up.
Professional profiles and social
LinkedIn profiles are delivered on their own. Facebook, X, Instagram and TikTok arrive grouped, with the network already identified. Each profile states whether it belongs to the one you looked up.
Images and public card
The public images with the page they came from, plus the public summary card when there is one. Both tiers include them.
The same sources, two sections more
Both tiers sweep the same public sources. Premium investigates in more depth and adds two sections to the file.
- Web results
- Press with date and tone
- LinkedIn profiles
- Social accounts
- Public images
- Public summary card
Profile synthesis
A written account of who the person or company is and what they do, with its sources cited.
Phone line details
The carrier operating the number, the line type and the region.
Line details are looked up only when you send a phone number. The remaining sections arrive complete with or without it.
How it works
The query runs in the background and the file reaches your dashboard once it is complete.
Person or company
The name is enough. For a person, the company, job title or city sharpen the search; for a company, the legal name, the RFC, the website or the city.
Search and sorting
The query sweeps the public sources and sorts the results by source type. The Premium tier adds the profile synthesis.
Delivery to the dashboard
The file reaches your dashboard with its reference number and its date. Your team gets the notice as soon as it is ready.
What the file contains
Seventeen sections, always in the same order. The ones marked Premium arrive with that tier.
The tier that was run: basic or Premium.

Three points where a risk or HR team runs the query.
Partners and suppliers
The query returns the public presence of the company and of its representative, with the press coverage where they appear, its date and its tone.
Signing-authority hires
The file delivers the career history, the education and the companies published under the candidate’s name, each data point with its link.
High-value cases
The query indicates whether the name appears in the press, with the date of each article, and which results or articles report an adverse fact.
Scope of the file
Where the data comes from, how each query is logged, and where the file sits in the process.
The digital footprint does not include judicial records, sanctions lists or SAT checks. Those are separate tools in the same catalogue, like identity against RENAPO.
- 01
Public sources
Everything in the file is published in open sources and arrives with the link of the page it came from.
- 02
Reference number and date
Every file records its reference number, its date and the tier that was run. The account log keeps every query.
- 03
Risk score
The score is computed from the identity and background verifications. The digital footprint file is delivered as context, separate from the score.
- 04
Common names
Whatever is identified as another person, a brand or another company with the same name leaves the file and is counted. The city and the other details you send sharpen the search.
- 05
Subject consent
The privacy notice and the subject’s consent are handled inside your process, the same as the rest of the customer file.
Everything runs through the API.
Every operation on this page runs as an API call. The full field-by-field reference is in the documentation.

From public sources: the open web, the press and the profiles the person or the company maintains. Every result arrives with the link of the page where it is published.
Both sweep the same public sources. Digital footprint delivers the web results, the press with date and tone, the profiles, the images and the public summary card. Digital footprint Premium investigates in more depth and adds the profile synthesis and the phone line details.
It is one of its parts. The digital footprint delivers what is published on the web, in the press and on social networks. It does not include judicial records, sanctions lists or SAT checks. Those tools, and identity against RENAPO, live in the same catalogue.
Yes. The query runs for a person or for a company. For a company the trade name is enough; the legal name, the RFC and the website sharpen the search. A customer registered as a legal entity is investigated as a company, and in a KYB flow the step runs on the company. A company’s litigation is reviewed with judicial records.
Every query stays in your account log with its reference number, its date, the tier that was run and the user who requested it.
