Search and connect with officers by agency, county, unit, or specialty. Verified profiles, closed network, built for the job.
You need narcotics in Middlesex County. You call dispatch. You get bounced. You ask around. An hour later, you have a name and a personal cell that may or may not still be active.
That is not a system. That is luck.
The experience of nearly every officer working cross-jurisdiction.
Contacts change constantly. Officers transfer, retire, and reassign with no central update.
Personal cell numbers are not official channels. They create liability and privacy risk.
No current, trusted way to check who's who, so you're always working off old contacts and guesswork.
No automatic approvals. Every applicant is checked by a person, and anyone who can't prove they're active, sworn law enforcement does not get in.
Sign up with an official .gov or agency-issued email address. Personal emails are rejected.
You upload two government IDs, and a Gridline admin verifies them by hand, never automatically. Both are deleted right after the decision.
Once you're in, you're re-checked every year. Officers who leave the job come out, so the directory stays 100% active, sworn law enforcement.
No civilians. No media. No exceptions.
Gridline is not a public directory. Your contact information, unit assignment, and agency details are only accessible to other verified, approved law enforcement members.
Verified profiles, direct messaging, and a discussion forum, all inside a closed network only verified officers can access.
Rank, agency, unit, and specialty, all confirmed. Plus peer vouches: officers who know you vouch for you, a real trust signal beyond any badge photo.
Narrow by county, state, unit, or specialty. Every result is verified and active.
Reach any verified officer in seconds. No personal numbers. All contact stays inside the network.
Pose questions, share what's working, and talk through the job with verified officers: training, policy, safety, gear, and everything in between.
Direct messages and group chats with verified officers, organized, private, and easy to pick back up.
No more chasing down numbers. Search the verified directory and message the right officer directly.

While we build the network, founding members get their first year for just $10, then $49/year. This rate won’t last. Get in while you can.
Gridline is brand new, so the directory is still small. Founding members aren’t joining a finished network, they’re building it. The $10 rate is our thanks to the officers who get in first. Bring the people you trust, and you’ll have shaped this from day one.
Real answers. No marketing language.
No. Gridline is a privately operated platform built by law enforcement, for law enforcement. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any federal, state, county, or municipal agency. It is not a government system.
Only verified Gridline members. Your profile is invisible to civilians, the public, and anyone who has not passed the same verification you went through. You cannot be found by Google or any outside search.
LinkedIn is public, unverified, and built for everyone. Anyone can claim any title. Gridline is closed, verified, and LE-only. Every member is a confirmed, active sworn officer. You know exactly who you are talking to.
Gridline is not a CJIS-covered system and does not access NCIC, criminal history records, or any criminal justice database. It is a contact directory, not an evidence or case management tool. Do not share CJIS-covered data through it.
Your membership is billed by the App Store or Google Play the moment you subscribe, and verification happens right after. We never touch your payment, so we can’t charge or refund it ourselves. If your application isn’t approved, you can request a refund directly from Apple or through Google Play. Paying up front is intentional. It keeps fake and throwaway sign-ups out.
