Your information is spread across the open web — data brokers, people-search sites, search results, and what AI assistants say about you. Cover one corner and the rest still leaks. Legacy services work from a fixed broker list and take the broker's word that you're gone. We search the open web, verify each removal ourselves, and re-file when your data comes back.

How Delist and legacy services stack up, area by area.
We confirm where your data is exposed before we file a single removal request. Our scan runs several strategies at once.
Many services work from a fixed list of sites that can't adapt to variations in your name, address history, or broker URL formats.
The result: we confirm where you're exposed across brokers, search results, AI assistants, and public records, before we ask you to pay.
We automate the submissions. Our platform fills the opt-out forms directly, so filing is faster, more consistent, and fewer people see your data.
Many legacy services are, at their core, call centers: large teams of people filling out opt-out forms by hand on your behalf.
The result: your opt-outs get filed fast and consistently, not typed out by hand one site at a time.
We run a full scan every month and re-file eligible removals when a listing comes back. Brokers relist, so a one-time removal doesn't hold. We keep filing as your data reappears.
Most services run on a fixed broker list and a set schedule, often only once a quarter. That leaves months where your data sits exposed, with no coverage of the rest of the web.
The result: we run a full scan every month and re-file eligible removals when your data reappears, not just once a quarter.
We independently verify each removal. A listing is only marked confirmed after we re-scan the site and your data is gone.
Many services mark a removal complete when a broker sends a confirmation email, without checking whether your listing actually came down.
The result: you see the evidence, not just a status badge.
Setup is a single page. You see what's exposed before you pay, then we handle the rest in the background.
Many services make you jump through hoops before you see a single result: clunky dashboards, long onboarding, and a paywall before you even know you're exposed.
Side-by-side breakdowns with sourced facts, an honest read on each competitor's strengths, and who each service is best for.
