Epstein Files
1.7 million pages of FBI investigation documents
Welcome to search the Epstein Files documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). This search tool gives journalists and researchers direct access to nearly 1.75 million pages of FBI investigation documents, with text content machine-extracted into a searchable format.
Every search result includes an EFTA document identifier that allows you to locate the original document in the DOJ release. The material covers three separate FBI datasets.
Background: Epstein Files
Jeffrey Epstein (1953–2019) was an American financier convicted of sex crimes and accused of large-scale sexual abuse and trafficking of minors. He died in prison in August 2019.
In 2024, the U.S. Congress passed the Epstein Records Transparency Act, requiring federal agencies to release investigation documents related to Epstein. The first release occurred on January 30, 2026, containing over 178 gigabytes of FBI investigation material.
This search tool was built because the original release — hundreds of thousands of PDF files without any search functionality — is practically impossible to research without machine processing. We have extracted the text content and built a full-text search that enables journalistic investigation.
Search Instructions
Choose a search type: document search performs full-text search across 1.75 million pages, EFTA search looks up documents directly by identifier, and email search targets Epstein's email archive.
Read more: Search type descriptions and tips
Document search (FTS5) searches all OCR texts for your query. Supports Boolean operators: AND, OR, NOT. E.g. Helsinki AND Finnair
EFTA search looks up documents directly by EFTA identifier. E.g. EFTA00039826. Supports wildcards: EFTA000398*
Email search targets 16,447 email messages (subject, sender, body).
Note on OCR quality: Texts have been machine-extracted from PDF files. Typos and recognition errors are possible — try different spellings.
Why a Nordic filter? Over 11,000 documents referencing the Nordic countries — Finland, Sweden, or Norway — have been identified in the material. Helsinki served as a transit point for the Epstein network into the Schengen area, and Norwegian contacts had an exceptionally deep documented connection to Epstein. The Nordic filter surfaces these documents from the mass of 1.75 million pages.

What the database contains
The search tool combines three Epstein Files datasets released by the DOJ, totaling nearly 1.75 million pages across 865,000 EFTA documents.
The database contains only text data. Only text content (OCR) has been machine-extracted from the original documents. The database does not contain images, videos, or other media content. Text extraction was performed automatically in a foreign server environment.
Read more: Dataset descriptions
The largest single dataset: 1,221,217 pages of FBI investigation documents. Includes Lesley Groff's calendar entries, AmEx Centurion travel documents, FBI interview reports (FD-302), emails, financial documents, and visa correspondence. 528,735 unique EFTA documents.
Court and financial documents: 517,382 pages. Includes trial transcripts, witness statements, Maxwell trial documents, and IRS tax documents. 331,655 unique EFTA documents.
FBI first phase investigation documents: 10,212 pages. The earliest material from the investigation. 4,086 unique EFTA documents.
Why this search tool exists
The DOJ released the Epstein Files documents under the Transparency Act on January 30, 2026. The original release contains millions of PDF files that are slow and difficult to browse.
Read more: Background and availability
Why text search? The original documents are in PDF format and are not searchable. We have extracted the text content using optical character recognition (OCR), allowing any journalist to perform precise searches across millions of pages in seconds.
Why is Dataset 9 special? DS9 is the largest dataset, but its original release also includes image and video material that may contain minors. This has prevented wide research use of the material. We have extracted only text-based content by machine, and this database does not contain any image or video content. The material was processed entirely AI-assisted in the United States, and the material package has never been within the EU or Finland.
EFTA document identifiers: Each page is linked to the original EFTA-numbered PDF file. In the DOJ release, you can find the original document using this identifier.
Important information about using this material
Document text content has been extracted using optical character recognition (OCR). The text may contain recognition errors. Always verify against the original PDF document before drawing conclusions.
- A mention in a document is not an accusation or evidence of a crime
- OCR text may contain recognition errors, especially in names and numbers
- Many documents contain redactions that prevent reading the text
- Interpretation and cross-referencing of information is the user's own responsibility
Data in numbers
Yirah.fi's Epstein Files search tool contains 1,748,811 pages of FBI investigation documents from three different datasets. The material covers 864,476 unique EFTA documents and 16,447 email messages.
Of the documents identified as Nordic-related, 11,651 reference Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, or Iceland. Finnish-related documents have been identified in Finnair flight bookings, Helsinki-Vantaa transit routes, and AmEx Centurion travel documents.
Norwegian connections are the most extensive Nordic connections in the material. Terje Rød-Larsen (International Peace Institute) appears in 1,665 documents, Thorbjørn Jagland (Secretary General of the Council of Europe) in 1,030 documents. Crown Princess Mette-Marit's visit to Epstein's Palm Beach house in January 2012 is documented in Lesley Groff's calendar entries.
The material has been OCR-processed (optical character recognition) from the original FBI-released PDF files. The search tool offers full-text search, EFTA document number search, and email search. The original PDF files are available on the DOJ (U.S. Department of Justice) website.
