Soylock
(You) can help by using was/were pronouns and updating the page to make it better reflect the project's death.
Soylock Is was a sharty-themed fork of Sherlock Project[1], used for finding usernames across social networks.[2] It is a Python program. It is useful for doxing, and has been shared on /soy/ and /raid/.
After a brief hiatus, Soylock returned to active development on June 8, 2026 with a nu update including a headless browser mode (based on camoufox) that can solve kikeflare challenges, thus giving more results. The false positives problem was also fixed.
Please note that you need to install Python and Git on Windows for Soylock to work. Then open Powershell and run the installation. You should also get Visual Studio Code code-oss or vscodium (versions of VSCode without microshit telemetry) as well, but this is optional.
As of update 0.19.0, soylock also checks the wayback machine (and a few other platform-specific 'chives) for deleted accounts. This can be disabled with the --disable-archive flag for a faster search.
After the alleged 'oxing of the dev of dox.soy soylock was shut down because he felt that nusois are ungrateful to him, and plans to restrict the tool's access for the Swinny's exclusive use.[3]
Example
[edit | edit source]Installation:
$ git clone https://github.com/SystemCallW/Soylock.git $ cd Soylock
Optional steps if using a venv (recommended) - note that if you use a venv, you will need to activate it every time you use soylock
$ python -m venv venv $ source venv/bin/activate (on linux, macOS, or WSL) $ .\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1 (on windows powershell) $ .\venv\Scripts\activate.bat (on windows command prompt)
Then:
$ pip install . $ python soylock.py <username1> <username2>
