Resolve a GitHub username to a LinkedIn profile — via API

Give a GitHub handle, get the real person's LinkedIn. DataForGTM is the only API that does person-level GitHub → LinkedIn resolution. Charged only when it resolves.

The call

curl -X POST https://dataforgtm.ai/api/v1/deanon \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DATAFORGTM_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"githubUser":"torvalds"}'

# → { "github_user": "torvalds", "linkedin_url": "...", "confidence": 0.9, "status": "found", ... }

Why this doesn't exist elsewhere

Enrichment vendors (Apollo, ZoomInfo, Clearbit, Coresignal, Bright Data) key on a domain or an existing LinkedIn URL — none start from a GitHub identity. reo.dev de-anonymizes developers but only inside its own platform, behind a demo and a seat. DataForGTM exposes the resolution itself as a self-serve, agent-callable endpoint.

How it works

Free GitHub signals first (linked socials, bio, blog), then quality gates, then a targeted SERP search with strict match validation. A miss is free; you pay 2 credits (~$0.30) only on a confirmed resolution.

Use it from an agent

It's an MCP / OpenAPI tool — point Claude or ChatGPT at the OpenAPI or the MCP server card and it can call deanon directly. Start a trial →
