Show HN: Subdomain Search Engine (merklemap.com)
4 points by Eikon on Sept 4, 2024 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
I've built a subdomain search engine that pulls certificate transparency logs in real time to extract unique domain names.

I was frustrated with existing tools that didn't provide wildcard search capabilities. Many tools offer limited search options, are slow or rely on outdated databases. I wanted to create something more powerful and current.

It works by:

1. Monitoring certificate transparency logs in real-time. 2. Extracting relevant domain data. 3. Indexing information.

I'd love to hear your feedback.



Just made some search about aws for example and got ~2M subdomains https://www.merklemap.com/search?query=*aws.com&page=1 or with herokuapp https://www.merklemap.com/search?query=herokuapp.com&page=1

Looks good for monitoring competitors :)

Crazy to see all of theses dev, qa, staging apps are exposed ...
