Why this matters

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 and email to reach them. InMato+ unlocks booking details, the official commissary provider, and deposit steps. InMato Premium adds case tracking, court alerts, and InMato Concierge.

×The usual way

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.

With InMato

One free search shows you which jail is holding your loved one, plus its phone number and email — so you can reach them directly. InMato+ adds booking details, the official commissary provider, and deposit steps.

How it works

Three steps to reach a loved one.

Searching is free — find the facility holding your loved one, plus its phone and email. InMato+ adds booking details, the official commissary provider, deposit steps, trusted referrals, and guides. InMato Premium adds case tracking, court alerts, and InMato Concierge.

02

Get the facility's details

We show you the jail holding them, its own phone number and email — so you can reach them directly, for free.

03

Upgrade when you need more

InMato+ unlocks booking details, the official commissary and phone provider, verified deposit steps, trusted contacts, and guides. Your money always goes straight to the provider, never through us.

Free, InMato+ & Premium

Search for free. Add InMato+ or Premium when you need more.

Every family starts with a free search. InMato+ adds commissary info, trusted contacts, and guides. InMato Premium adds case tracking, court alerts, and InMato Concierge.

If your loved one has already been booked into a county jail we cover, a free search will find them. If they were just taken into custody and haven't been booked yet, an InMato Premium booking watch notifies you the moment their record appears.

Roadmap

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.

PHASE 1 · LIVE

Launch

County jail coverage goes live: 289 county jail systems across 14 states. Search a covered facility, get its phone number and email, and create a free account — in English or Spanish. InMato+ adds booking details, the official commissary and phone providers, and verified deposit steps.

PHASE 2 · DECEMBER 2026

Rapid expansion

Coverage extends to new states and hundreds more county facilities. InMato Premium booking watches and status alerts begin reaching families.

PHASE 3 · MARCH 2027

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.

PHASE 4 · DECEMBER 2027

State prisons

State Department of Corrections facilities begin coming online, starting with the largest systems — held to the same official-provider standard.

2028

Federal

Federal facilities join, in cooperation with our partners — completing nationwide coverage across county, state, and federal.

Security & trust

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. InMato+ connects you to that provider, 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.

Born from lived experience.
Built for families.

The system that was supposed to help families reach their loved ones was built to profit from them instead. Co-founders J.T. Bramlette and Steve Urry built a new one.
