Deleting an online account should be as easy as creating one. It almost never is.
Companies bury the delete option seven menus deep, disguise it as "deactivate" instead of actually erasing your data, or simply don't offer it — forcing you to email support and hope someone eventually processes the request. It's not an accident. Every account you can't quite bring yourself to delete is a data point they keep.
AccountKiller exists to strip that friction away. Search any company and it pulls up a direct guide: the exact link to hit, the exact steps to follow, written in plain language instead of buried in a help-center maze. Over 1,300 guides and counting, covering everything from major platforms like Facebook down to niche forums and long-forgotten subscription services.
The blacklist is the sharpest part of the whole site. Companies that make deletion genuinely difficult or outright impossible — like Skype, historically — get called out directly, so you know going in whether you're in for a five-minute fix or a fight. There's a whitelist too, for the companies that actually respect a clean exit.
If a guide doesn't exist yet for a site you're trying to leave, you can submit it and the team will research and add it. And if you're stuck on something particularly stubborn, they'll personally help you kill the account — just tell them what you're trying to cancel.
It's been cited by The Atlantic, NBC News, The New York Times, PCMag, USA Today, and Lifehacker for a reason: everyone eventually hits an account they can't figure out how to close. Now there's one place that already has.
