I have a professional interest in this field, as a user of tools like this. So I have this a shot.
They are generally useless. In particular the “people” related tools are heavily biased towards the US and seem to be wrappers/aggregators on other services.
Some of the descriptions are a little vague, eg. "GeoPlaner provides capabilities for geospatial analysis, map verification, and location intelligence."
While yeah maybe having this all in a github repo is helpful in a little way to help organize things...I think we should if not stop, at least slow down our collective dumping of so much stuff into the centralized, corporate silos.
Then again, they do make mention a bout this being open source, and ,living in some github repo already (https://osintradar.com/faq#contribute )...but, oddly, they don't link to said repo.

Big waste of time.
What are the tools that you currently use?
Some of the descriptions are a little vague, eg. "GeoPlaner provides capabilities for geospatial analysis, map verification, and location intelligence."
Note for the creator, it may be worthwhile to add a 'local tool' vs 'online service' .
Thank you all for taking the time to give feedback. I will take your suggestions and try to improve.
What not make a github repo? awesome-osint????

I think this is not actually a curated list, and LLM put the open source part in FAQ, and they didn't catch it before publishing.
I hate awesome lists they are garbage.
This resource also seems like waste of time so not much better.
