Common questions
How do bail agents find a skip?
Start with the defendant's full report: current and prior addresses, phones, and relatives and associates. Reverse-search the numbers in the bail file to see who answers them now.
What's in a full report?
Everything in a contact search (ranked phones, emails, current address) plus relatives and associates. It costs 5 credits.
Are there legal limits on use?
Yes. Bail recovery is regulated state by state; follow your state's licensing and conduct rules. SkipTrace AI must not be used for FCRA-covered purposes.
Can I search from my phone?
Yes, SkipTrace AI works on mobile browsers and on Android through Google Play.
Ready when you are. Pay per search.
No subscription, no contract, and no charge when a search finds nothing useful.
