AJAXX Data Scrubber vs Optery

AJAXX Data Scrubber scans data broker and people-search websites for exposed personal information, helps submit opt-out requests, and tracks what happens afterward. It searches more than 150 broker sites for one person using one name and one city and state. Requests are automated where supported, with guidance for manual procedures elsewhere. The service advertises quarterly automatic rescans, exposure-risk reporting, screenshots of discovered profiles, and email progress updates with summary totals. Free accounts can view a first scan and exposure results; removals require a paid plan that includes Core. The site says most removals finish within 45 days, although verification requirements can extend that time. AJAXX is available in the United States and supports opt-out workflows used by many brokers in states with privacy rights such as CCPA or CPRA. It says scan data is used only for requests on the user’s behalf and is not sold. Accounts and associated data can be deleted through settings. Removal results are not guaranteed to persist.

Optery helps people find and remove personal information posted on data broker and people-search sites. Its free platform provides visibility into where information appears online; Free Basic includes personalized exposure reports with screenshots, scans of Google and Bing search results, self-service removal tools, and quarterly reports. Paid plans add automated scans and removals, but brokers may add profiles again after an opt-out. Exposure and removal reports include live screenshots showing where profiles were found or removed. Core costs $3.99 a month, billed yearly at $39, and covers automated removals from 380+ sites, with a limit of one name and city and state per user. Extended costs $14.99 a month, billed yearly at $149, and adds more site coverage, unlimited name variations and past cities and states, an assigned human Privacy Agent, and before-and-after screenshots about every 90 days. Ultimate costs $24.99 a month, billed yearly at $249, and includes custom requests for 950+ sites total after 30 days. Optery also offers an API for partner applications and programmatic access to exposure screenshots. It supports Android, iOS, web, API, and extension. Optery says customer data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
