Getting started with Frame

Frame finds where your personal information is exposed and helps you clean it up. Here’s the quickest way in.

1. Create your account

Go to Sign up and pick how you want to sign in: a passkey, Google, GitHub or a one-time email link. You can add a password later in Settings → Sign-in and security. The Free plan doesn’t need a card. Frame is in private beta, so if the page says Frame isn’t open yet, new accounts are paused for now. If you already have an account, you can still log in.

2. Finish setup

Setup walks you through a few short steps: your first name and where you live, the details Frame should look for, a passkey or an authenticator app for extra protection, how Frame looks, and a first check. Choose Finish later on any step and you’ll pick up where you left off next time.

3. Tell Frame what to look for

Frame only checks details that belong to you. Your sign-in email is the first one. Add more in Settings → Identifiers: emails need a 6-digit code to prove they’re yours, while usernames, your name, addresses and date of birth are used as soon as you add them. Phone numbers can’t be verified yet. How many you can watch depends on your plan.

4. Run your first checks

• Ask the Frame agent “What can you find about me?” It runs its tools and explains each result in plain language.
• Open Leak tests and run one on each network you use, especially with your VPN on.
• Open Removal and choose Search brokers now. Frame searches data broker sites for listings with your name and where you live, then asks you to confirm any possible match.

What to expect

Some parts of Frame are still being switched on. Frame doesn’t send removal requests for you yet, and full breach-database lookups aren’t live yet. When something isn’t available, the screen says so instead of guessing. Next: How scanning works.
