A lightweight, efficient OSINT tool built in Go for username and keyword searches across multiple platforms. Inspired by Sherlock but optimized for simplicity and speed using Go routines.

## 🌟 Features
- **Username Search**: Find digital footprints across various platforms
- **Keyword Discovery**: Uncover URLs related to specific search terms
- **Domain Search**: Identify platforms associated with a domain
- **Concurrent Processing**: Leverages Go routines for fast, efficient searches
- **File Output**: Save search results for later analysis
- **Platform Specific**: Option to target searches to individual platforms

## 🚀 Quick Start
1. Clone and build:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/vehbiu/go-osint.git
cd go-osint
go build
```

2. Run a search:
```bash
go-osint username johndoe
```

## 🛠️ Usage Examples

### 📋 Command Structure
```bash
go-osint [type] [term] (platform)

```

2. **Platform-Specific Search**:
```bash

```

3. **Keyword Search**:
```bash

```

4. **Domain Search**:

## 💭 Developer's Note
While this project shares similarities with Sherlock, it's different. Rather than copying sherlock, the methods are implemented manually (which can be seen from the abstraction), although not the greatest, it works for such a project.
