eyefind.info is the main web portal in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V.

GTA IV

The player can check e-mail, browse through the website categories, or click on the bookmark for the Liberty Tree to view news stories related to the player's exploits in the storyline. Eyefind.info appears to be a parody of Yahoo!, based on its function and on the position of the ad in Star Junction in relation to the Yahoo! ad in real life.[1] The slogan for eyefind.info is '...For when you should be working'. Along with the search engine, EyeFind has a random link generator called LuckyFind Search, where the player can look for random websites that appear in a list. If the player enters an invalid or misspelled domain name, the browser redirects to the LuckyFind page.

GTA V

In GTA V, the EyeFind front page has been redesigned. The site's expanded services, specifically its maps service, are a parody of Google; the Google connection is made more apparent when actor Milton McIlroy tells Michael De Santa to "EyeFind" him in the mission Mr. Richards. The company is traded on the BAWSAQ exchange.
