## Description

Sherlock: AI Face Search lets you search for someone's online presence using just a photo. Identity verification is supported by locating social media profiles, blogs, videos, and news, with access to a vast index of over a billion faces. It also helps you screen dating profiles for authenticity and protect against romance scams.

This Chrome extension uses a credits-based subscription model with in-app purchases. It includes renewal terms, privacy policy, and terms of service links for user clarity and safe use.

## Review summary

Most reviews condemn Sherlock as unreliable and misleading. The top issues are the lack of a free trial and a pay/credit model that many see as a scam, poor result quality (no real matches, or returns of celebrities/look-alikes), and results that lead to image sources rather than the person. Several users report paying without receiving usable results and worsening performance over time. A small number express positive sentiment about the search capability, but negative experiences dominate.

### Pros

- Good search capability reported by some users
- Positive sentiment from a minority of users (e.g., 'Love', 'Great app', 'Very good')
- Some reviews suggest the app can find matches when a face exists

### Cons

- No free trial or easy way to test before paying
- Paid/credit-based model perceived as misleading or a scam and poor value
- Results are often unusable or inaccurate (no real matches; multiple reports of celebrities or look-alikes)
- Results frequently link to the source image rather than identifying the person searched for
- Performance can deteriorate after initial use and become unreliable
