The main service of the website is a facility displaying the distribution of given names and surnames, their meaning and demographic statistics relating to their bearers

It currently covers 236 states and territories, over 27 million surnames and is extrapolated from a database of over 4 billion people((https://forebears.io/about/name-distribution-and-demographics)). In 2019 data for over 28 million given names were added.

The geospatial data is provided in the form of an interactive map and table form. It shows name distribution at the continental, national and up to four levels of depth in administrative subdivisions within nations. For example, distribution can be viewed within South Africa at the provincial, district and local levels.

The service contains over 172,000 descriptions of surnames, in eight languages((https://forebears.io/about/forename-and-surname-meanings)). Most are produced from third party sources, while others are submitted by website visitors or produced in-house.
