The Have I Been Pwned alternative that shows the actual credentials
Have I Been Pwned tells you whether an email or domain turned up in a breach, for free. LeakRadar tells you what was actually leaked: the plaintext passwords, usernames and URLs themselves, across 523B+ leak lines, plus downloadable raw files, stealer logs, combolists, dark web forum search and continuous monitoring. A yes or no answer is the starting point, not the response.

Have I Been Pwned is free, fast and excellent for one thing: a quick yes or no on whether an email or domain has appeared in a known breach. It is the right tool for that check, and it never shows the passwords themselves. LeakRadar answers the next question: what was actually leaked. You get the real plaintext credentials across 523B+ leak lines, plus downloadable raw files, stealer logs, combolists, dark web forum search, automatic domain segmentation and continuous monitoring on Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram and Webhook. Search stays free, so you can confirm a breach the way you would on HIBP, then see the credentials behind it when you need to respond.

Why teams choose LeakRadar over Have I Been Pwned
1
The actual credentials, not just a yes or no
Have I Been Pwned confirms an email appeared in a breach but never shows the password behind it. LeakRadar reveals the real plaintext passwords, usernames and URLs across 523B+ leak lines, so you can see exactly what is exposed and act, not just acknowledge it.
2
Raw files, stealer logs and combolists
HIBP indexes breach databases and lists the domains seen in stealer logs, without the credentials. LeakRadar searches stealer logs, combolists, databases and downloadable raw dump files in one place, the formats where credentials actually surface today.
3
Continuous monitoring and dark web search
HIBP can email you if your address shows up in a future breach. LeakRadar watches continuously and pings you on Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram or Webhook, adds dark web forum search and automatic employee/customer/third-party segmentation, and generates PDF incident reports.

—Frequently asked questions
What can LeakRadar do that Have I Been Pwned can't?
What can LeakRadar do that Have I Been Pwned can't?
The core difference is that HIBP tells you if you were breached, while LeakRadar shows you what was leaked. LeakRadar reveals the real plaintext credentials (passwords, usernames, URLs) that HIBP never displays, searches and downloads raw dump files across 523B+ leak lines, indexes full stealer logs and combolists rather than just the domains captured, and offers dark web forum search. On top of that it adds automatic employee/customer/third-party domain segmentation, PDF incident reports, mass email and domain checkers, password-strength analysis and continuous monitoring across five channels.
How does LeakRadar's pricing compare to Have I Been Pwned?
How does LeakRadar's pricing compare to Have I Been Pwned?
Have I Been Pwned is free for breach notifications and its Pwned Passwords range lookup; domain and stealer-log search run through its paid API, from roughly $4.50/mo with stealer-log access from around $326/mo. LeakRadar works differently: search is free, and you only pay to reveal cleartext at volume and unlock the heavier features. Paid plans are €29.99/mo (Starter: email and domain search, 10,000 cleartext unlocks per day, monitor 20 assets, API), €69.99/mo (Enterprise: adds advanced and dark web search, 100,000 unlocks, 100 assets, team seats), €159.99/mo (Platinum: adds raw search and 50 GB downloads, 300,000 unlocks, 1,000 assets) and €999.99/mo (Unlimited). The €29.99/mo Starter plan is the entry tier, not full access. HIBP is the cheaper route for a simple breach check; LeakRadar lets you start free and scale into plaintext credentials, raw files, dark web coverage and monitoring HIBP does not offer.
Does Have I Been Pwned show leaked passwords?
Does Have I Been Pwned show leaked passwords?
No, and this is the key gap LeakRadar fills. HIBP confirms which breaches an email appeared in and, through Pwned Passwords, lets you check whether a specific password hash has been seen before, but it never links a password to an account or shows the plaintext credential. LeakRadar reveals the actual plaintext passwords tied to accounts across 523B+ leak lines once you unlock cleartext on a paid plan, so you can see precisely what an attacker would.
Does LeakRadar have an API and documentation?
Does LeakRadar have an API and documentation?
Yes. Every plan includes REST API access at 30 requests per second. Full documentation and a Python SDK are available at docs.leakradar.io, and live platform status is published at status.leakradar.io.
Is LeakRadar built for security teams?
Is LeakRadar built for security teams?
Yes. LeakRadar is EU-hosted and GDPR-compliant, generates PDF incident reports, supports shared team seats, and exposes a REST API plus Python SDK. Eligible law enforcement, government and military teams in the EU or US can get free access for their official work by emailing contact@leakradar.io.
Can I try LeakRadar before paying?
Can I try LeakRadar before paying?
Yes. Credential search is free with no subscription, so you can run the same breach check you would on Have I Been Pwned and see the coverage for yourself. You only pay when you want to reveal cleartext at volume or add monitoring, API, raw files and dark web access, starting at €29.99/mo.
The verdict
Have I Been Pwned is the trusted, free way to learn whether an email or domain has shown up in a breach, and for that quick check it is excellent. Its limit is that it stops at the answer: it never shows the passwords or the leaked data itself. LeakRadar starts where HIBP ends, revealing the actual plaintext credentials across 523B+ leak lines, with downloadable raw files, full stealer logs and combolists, dark web forum search, automatic domain segmentation, continuous monitoring on five channels and a 30 req/s API. Use HIBP to find out if you were breached, use LeakRadar to see what was exposed and respond. Search is free, so you can check the coverage yourself, then scale from €29.99/mo when you need cleartext at volume.
See the credentials HIBP can't show you
Run your first searches free: the breach check you'd expect from HIBP, plus the actual plaintext passwords, raw files, dark web coverage and alerts it doesn't offer. Upgrade only when you need cleartext at volume or monitoring.
