GHunt online, in your browser

ghunt.sh is an independent reimplementation of GHunt, usable from any browser. Same lookups, same output as the original, but executed from a web page instead of a terminal. No Python, no Companion extension, no token to manage on your side.

Why a browser version exists

The original GHunt is an open-source Python CLI. It is the best way to use the tool when you are doing serious offensive work: you keep full control of the credentials and the output. But the install is non-trivial. You need a recent Python, a virtualenv, the GHunt Companion browser extension to capture your Google session, and a working understanding of the CLI flags.

A lot of legitimate use cases do not need that level of control. A journalist verifying a source, a recruiter cross-checking an applicant's public profile, an analyst triaging a leaked list of emails: all of these benefit from being able to throw an email at GHunt in five seconds and read a report. That is the gap ghunt.sh fills.

What you get from the browser

From the box on the home page, type a Google email and you get back, in one page:

  • The public Google profile: display name, photo, cover, locale.
  • The Gaia ID, the canonical pivot identifier for further Google lookups.
  • Whether the account is a personal Gmail or a Workspace account.
  • The list of active Google services attached to the account.
  • Public Google Maps contributions: reviews, photos, places.
  • Public Google Calendar entries, when the account exposes one.
  • The Play Games profile, when present.

Behind the scenes, the Gaia ID acts as the pivot key that chains the lookups together, so one email unfolds into one consolidated report.

What ghunt.sh does not do

ghunt.sh only queries public Google surfaces, and nothing more. No password attacks, no MFA bypass, no access to private content, no reading of Gmail. If the target account is locked down, you get back a report that mostly says "nothing public to show". That is the correct outcome.

ghunt.sh is an independent project. It is a reimplementation that ports the same lookups to the browser, not a redistribution of the original CLI.

How to use it

  1. Open ghunt.sh in any browser.
  2. Paste a Google email into the search box.
  3. Hit Hunt and wait a few seconds.
  4. Scroll the consolidated report. Click into individual sections (Maps, Calendar, Play Games) to expand.

That is the whole flow. No account, no setup, no command-line skills required.
