reverse-image

Yandex Images

Yandex's reverse-image search, regarded as best in class for faces and visually similar images, drawing on a multi-billion-image index. You submit an image URL and review matches in the web interface; there is no official API, and automated use trips captchas, so it works as a hand-off link. A standard OSINT stop when Google's reverse search comes up empty, especially for photographs of people.
