Support shouldn't be this hard.
When someone you love is arrested, the questions hit all at once. Where are they? How do I reach them? What will I need? The answers are spread across dozens of confusing websites — right when you have the least time to look. One free search puts it all in one place: which jail is holding them, plus the phone number, email, and booking details to reach them. When you're ready to send money, we show you the real payment site and walk you through each step.
County, state, and federal websites that don't talk to each other. Fake pages built to look official. A different company for every jail — and you start over if your loved one is moved.
One free search shows you which jail is holding your loved one, plus its phone number, email, and booking details — so you can reach them directly. When you're ready to send money, we point you to the facility's official provider and the exact steps to deposit.
Three steps to reach a loved one.
Searching is free. If your loved one is already in the system, you'll find the facility holding them, its phone and email, and the booking details you need — at no cost. The official providers, verified deposit steps, and first-week guidance are free too. InMato+ adds ongoing alerts, trusted referrals, and live case tracking whenever you need them.

County jail coverage — live now.
We're starting where families are most often overlooked — county jail systems — and bringing new counties online every month.
A free search gives you each covered facility's phone number, email, and booking details. We also point you to its official, licensed provider and the verified steps to deposit — all free.
Built in the open, phase by phase.
We're starting with county jails — where families are most often left without help — and expanding from there. Here's exactly what's coming, and when.
Launch
County jail coverage goes live: 289 county jail systems across 14 states. Search a covered facility, get its phone number, email, and booking details, and create a free account — in English or Spanish. The official commissary and phone providers and verified deposit steps are free, too.
Rapid expansion
Coverage extends to new states and hundreds more county facilities. InMato+ booking watches and status alerts begin reaching families.
Every county covered
County jail coverage is complete — every county system in the country, searchable in one place. Bail, attorney, and chaplain referrals expand nationwide.
State prisons
State Department of Corrections facilities begin coming online, starting with the largest systems — held to the same official-provider standard.
Federal
Federal facilities join, in cooperation with our partners — completing nationwide coverage across county, state, and federal.
We never touch your money.
When families are most vulnerable, trust is everything. Here's exactly how we protect you — and your money.
Always directed to the official provider
When we point you to a commissary or phone provider, it's always the facility's real, licensed one — never an imitation site or an unlicensed intermediary.
We never hold your money
You deposit directly with the official provider on their secure system. We connect you to that provider for free, and your funds never pass through us.
Your information stays private
We collect only what's needed to complete a search. We don't sell your data, and providers never market to you through us.
I watched families lose hours, sometimes days, just trying to learn where someone was being held and how to support them — while unofficial sites waited to take advantage. No family should have to struggle through that. We built InMato so the search is always free, and so your money goes straight to the official provider, never through us.
