Frequently asked questions
Is this a valid JSON file?
Every file parses as valid JSON — no truncated records.
Is the data real?
No. Every name, email address, phone number and company in the file is generated placeholder content. Nothing here relates to a real person, so it is safe to commit to a repository or share with a team.
Can I use it in a commercial project?
Yes. The files are free to use however you like, including in commercial and closed-source work. No attribution required.
Do I need to sign up?
No account, no email, no limit on downloads.
