In the age of AI-generated faces and anonymous online identities, **Humapedia** is your tool for bringing back trust connections on the Internet. With just a screenshot or an image, you can find public-facing profiles and verify whether someone is real — especially useful in Web3, dating apps, or social platforms.

This guide walks you through how to get started with Humapedia, whether you’re using a **Testnet wallet** or **email login**.

**What is Humapedia?**
======================

Humapedia is a facial recognition search engine. Upload a photo, and in seconds it checks across the internet to identify if this person has any public profile available.

You can access it here: 👉 [https://humapedia.org](https://humapedia.org/)
