Detailed Description

PhoneInfoga is an information gathering framework for phone numbers that aggregates data from multiple sources to support OSINT investigations.

The tool addresses the need to gather intelligence on international phone numbers by combining basic carrier and location data with footprinting techniques across external APIs, phone books, and search engines. It operates as a collection of configurable scanners that help investigators identify phone number ownership, check reputation reports, detect disposable numbers, and find associated social media presence. The framework explicitly does not automate tracking, precise location finding, or real-time monitoring—it positions itself as an investigative aid rather than a surveillance tool.

PhoneInfoga suits security researchers, fraud investigators, and OSINT practitioners who need to correlate phone number data from multiple public sources. The tool provides both a graphical browser interface and programmatic access through a REST API and Go modules, making it usable for both interactive investigation and integration into larger workflows. It is stable but unmaintained, so adopters should be aware that new bugs will not be addressed and the repository could be archived.

The project maintains a substantial user base, with nearly all open issues originating from external users rather than the core team. Maintainers respond to new issues and pull requests within a day. Development activity centers on Docker support, feature requests, and proposals, indicating ongoing interest in containerization and capability expansion.
