Company mission

To put consumers in control of their personal data.

Our take

Phishing, spam calls and emails, identity theft, fraud…these are the things everyone risks as their digital footprint widens and their personal information is leaked or sold. Optery’s award-winning, patented search technology has built the company’s product into a truly influential platform for the over 1.5M+ customer opt-outs/removals it has managed so far.

The company is known as the first to offer a free account that enables users to see the scope of their digital footprint through screenshots of where their information is being shared online. Beyond that, the company gives users the option to manually remove their information or allow Optery to automatically remove them from those sites, erasing their home address, phone number, email, and other personal information at scale.

There are a number of websites that offer similar services, such as DeleteMe and Privacy Bee, but Optery offers deeper and more widespread insights than other options. As one of the top options on the market, Optery is well set to see continued growth.
