Most Data Breach Checking websites only scan Emails

Most tools ONLY scan EMAILS.

Traclea scans USERNAMES.

For individuals: - Your Steam, Discord, Epic accounts - Crypto wallets (Coinbase, Binance, MetaMask) - Social media (TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat) - Gaming platforms, streaming services

For businesses: - Employee GitHub, GitLab accounts - AWS, Azure, GCP credentials - Corporate Slack, Jira, DevOps tools - Developer accounts used for work

Why does this matter?

Infostealer malware doesn't care if you're an individual gamer or a Fortune 500 employee. It steals everything—and sells it within 48 hours.

Traditional breach checkers only track corporate email breaches. They miss 70% of credential theft.

Traclea monitors: 2,000+ data breaches 50+ infostealer malware families Real-time dark web markets Platform-specific alerts (know exactly what leaked)

Black Friday Launch (Nov 28) First 1,000 waitlist = FREE 1 Month Premium Free forever + Premium $1.99/mo Business & Enterprise plans available

Everyone deserves protection—from gamers to CISOs.

Spent the last 6 months building Traclea and we're launching Black Friday.

*The problem we're solving:*

Most breach checkers only scan corporate email leaks. but 50+ malware families are stealing credentials from infected devices and selling them on dark web markets within 48 hours.

Nobody sees it coming. your GitHub account gets compromised, your AWS keys leak, your Vercel project is exposed and your breach checker says "all clear "

*why this matters to founders/devs:*

Your personal laptop gets infected. malware grabs: - GitHub credentials - AWS/Vercel/Railway keys - Stripe dashboard logins - Company Slack accounts - Database credentials saved in browser

Sold for $5-20. someone now has access to your entire stack.

Happened to a friend. his startup's database got wiped because his GitHub was compromised from stealer malware. he had no idea until it was too late.

*What we built:*

Traclea monitors usernames (not just emails) across 2,000+ breaches and 50+ active malware families.

We track: - Dev tools (GitHub, GitLab, AWS, Vercel, Railway, Render) - Gaming accounts (Steam, Discord, Epic) - Crypto wallets (Coinbase, MetaMask, Binance) - Social media (for marketing/community)

Real-time alerts when YOUR credentials appear anywhere.

*The stack:*

- Django backend - React frontend - PostgreSQL (debated ClickHouse for a while) - Real-time processing of stealer logs and breach data - API for developers to integrate

*Pricing:*

- Free forever plan (1 email, 1 username) - Premium $1.99/mo (more capacity, API access) - Business/enterprise plans for teams

*Launch details:*

- Launching: Black Friday (Nov 28) - Special: first 1,000 waitlist = free month premium - Link: traclea.com/coming-soon

*What I'd love feedback on:*

1. Pricing too low? too high? we wanted to make it accessible 2. Would you use username monitoring for your dev accounts? 3. What other platforms should we prioritize?

happy to answer any questions about how we're sourcing data, privacy concerns, technical challenges, etc.

19 days to launch.
