About

Searches TinEye's multi-billion web image index for copies of an image, even cropped, resized or edited, and returns matching image URLs, the pages they appear on and stock-photo flags. It only finds copies TinEye has crawled, not duplicates in your own library.

What you can do with it

  • Find the web pages that use a photo, even after it was cropped, resized or edited
  • Check whether an uploaded profile or listing photo is a stock or copied image
  • Track where your brand or product images are reused across the web

Get started

  1. Buy a search bundle and copy your API key
  2. Test your code with the sandbox key, which returns sample matches
  3. Search by image URL or upload, from server-side code only

Example

curl --get "https://api.tineye.com/rest/search/" \
  -H "X-API-KEY: $TINEYE_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "image_url=https://tineye.com/images/meloncat.jpg"
