Find a Microsoft account by email
Search an email address to see whether it has a Microsoft account. The same search checks 100+ other platforms at once, so you see everywhere else the address is used too.
What a Microsoft result shows
When the address has a Microsoft account, the result card shows the display name and picture on the Microsoft account, when it shows them.
Microsoft Teams is checked as its own platform, so a work account can turn up on both.
Why look up a Microsoft account
- Check whether an Outlook, Hotmail or Live address is a real, active account.
- Put a name to a work address on a company that runs on Microsoft 365.
- See whether an address of yours is still tied to a Microsoft account you no longer use.

Questions
Can you find a Microsoft account by email?
Yes, when the account’s owner signed up with that address. Search the address and a Microsoft result appears as a card if there is one, alongside every other platform the address opens.
Will the Microsoft user know I searched for them?
No. Nothing is sent to the address and Microsoft does not tell its user that someone looked.
Is it free?
Yes. Five checks a day per visitor, shared with Seer’s free check, with no account to create.
What if no Microsoft account comes up?
The address may not have a Microsoft account, or the account may use a different address. People often keep one address for work and another for everything else, so try both if you have them.
