About DirtSearch

DirtSearch exists to make free public records easier to find by linking directly to official government databases instead of charging for information that is already public.

Our mission

We believe public records should stay public. DirtSearch helps people reach official state and federal databases without paywalls, signup forms, or unnecessary middlemen.

What DirtSearch provides

  • State-by-state public records guides for all 50 states and Washington D.C.
  • Nationwide federal record tools for courts, business filings, sanctions, and more.
  • Educational guides about privacy, security, background checks, and online safety.
