Simple, transparent pricing for IP intelligence
Full geolocation (country, region, city), reverse + forward DNS, ASN and org name, and CIDR — free on every plan, plus 1,000 lookups a day with no account. Upgrade for ASN/org enrichment, /24 neighbors, more queries and the threat layer — residential, mobile & datacenter proxy, VPN, Tor & botnet detection, trust scores and live BGP — metered monthly at a fraction of what other providers charge.

Geolocation & DNS free. Enrichment & threat intelligence, undercut.
The core descriptive picture — geolocation (country, region, city), reverse + forward DNS, ASN and org name, and CIDR — is free on every plan (1,000 lookups a day with no account, unlimited with one). Paid tiers add ASN/org enrichment, /24 neighbors, more volume and the threat-intelligence layer, metered monthly per tier:
- Residential proxy
- Mobile / cellular proxy
- Datacenter proxy
- VPN detection
- Tor exit nodes
- Botnet / IoT reputation
- Trust score
- Live BGP
Undercuts metered providers on both price and volume — ipinfo charges $41 for 150k and $130 for 250k lookups a month; WorldIP gives you 200k for $39 and 500k for $129.

Core descriptive data — geolocation, reverse + forward DNS, ASN and org name, and CIDR — is free on the basic endpoint (1,000/day with no account, unlimited on any account). Paid tiers add ASN/org enrichment and /24 neighbors; the metered /ext/lookup endpoint adds higher volume plus the threat layer (proxy / VPN / datacenter / Tor classification and trust scores) and live BGP.
Pricing FAQ
Is there really a free plan?
Yes. The core descriptive IP data — owner, ASN, org name, country, region and city geolocation, reverse + forward DNS, and CIDR for any IP — is free on every plan. Without an account you get 1,000 lookups a day, keyless, over plain HTTP. Create a free account and they become unlimited. Paid tiers add ASN/org enrichment (PeeringDB/Wikidata), /24 neighbors, higher enriched volume and the threat layer on the /ext/lookup endpoint — that is where the proxy and VPN detection lives: residential proxies, mobile / cellular (cellphone) proxies, datacenter & hosting proxies, VPN endpoints and Tor exit nodes, plus botnet and compromised-host (including IoT) reputation flags, trust scores and live BGP. That classification is a decay-scored heuristic — a confidence signal, not a definitive verdict.
Do I need a credit card for the free plan?
No. Browsing needs nothing at all, and the free account signs in with Google in one click — no card, ever. A card is only required for paid plans once billing goes live.
What happens if I exceed my monthly enriched limit?
Only the enriched /ext/lookup endpoint is metered — basic lookups stay unlimited. If you pass your monthly enriched quota, requests are rate-limited rather than billed by surprise, so you will not get an unexpected invoice. If you regularly need more, the next tier up is usually the cheaper option, and Enterprise offers custom volume.
Can I cancel or change plans anytime?
Yes. Plans are month-to-month (or annual if you choose it) with no lock-in — upgrade, downgrade or cancel whenever you like. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period.
How does annual billing save money?
Annual plans are billed for 10 months instead of 12 — two months free, about 17% off. For example Pro is $39/mo monthly, or $390/yr ($32.50/mo) on annual billing.
When can I actually subscribe?
Paid plans are coming soon. The tiers and pricing here are final, and self-serve checkout is in development — every purchase button will switch on together at launch. Add your email on the developers page and we will notify you the day it opens.
What is included with Enterprise?
Everything in Scale, plus custom enriched volume, a dedicated bare-metal machine with its own ClickHouse replica fed live from the global scanning network, an uptime SLA and priority support. Contact us and we will scope it to your use case.
