About Optery

Optery provides comprehensive and verifiable personal data removal for individuals, families, and businesses. We find and remove exposed PII from data brokers and people-search sites before it fuels cyberattacks, fraud, and physical threats. Optery’s patented search technology finds about 100 exposed profiles per person on average, including 40–50 more than competing services. Optery complements this with sophisticated opt-out automation that employs AI and machine learning to execute complex removal workflows at a scale and speed not previously possible. Optery’s opt-out technology can interpret varying broker requirements, navigate changing forms, solve CAPTCHAs, process email and SMS verification steps, write and respond to follow-up emails, handle authorized-agent requirements, and adapt as broker procedures evolve. Optery automates removals from 640+ sites and covers 1,000+ total with Custom Removals. Monthly rescans address republished profiles. Optery is the only service providing before-and-after screenshot proof at scale. Optery for Business is the first fully self-service platform built for IT and security teams to remove employee and executive PII from the web. It scales from high-risk groups to employee-wide coverage and offers centralized enrollment, SSO/SAML/SCIM, reporting, and an AICPA SOC 2 Type II attestation. An API enables partners to embed Optery’s scanning and removal capabilities.
