WorldIP.io
Owner, ASN, GEO, PTR, BGP & more for every IPv4 address
Most IP-data providers resell the same handful of geolocation databases. We take the opposite approach: a globally distributed scanner fleet across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific continuously resolves reverse and forward DNS across all 4.3 billion IPv4 addresses. The data is first-party, kept fresh in near real time, and served as clean JSON in under a second. Our fourth-generation scanner engine is built to complete a full pass of the IPv4 space in under 24 hours.
WorldIP.io exists to make IPv4 address data accessible to everyone. We merge multiple authoritative data sources into a single, fast, searchable database covering all 4.3 billion IPv4 addresses.
Whether you're a network engineer investigating a routing issue, a security analyst tracing an IP, or just curious about who owns an address — we provide the answer in under a second, free, with no signup required.
Scanning all 4.3 billion IPv4 addresses in under 24 hours is genuinely impressive. One thing that would make this even more useful for me: add IPv6 support, or at least make it clear on the site when that is on the roadmap. Most of the traffic I analyze now is v6, and having to bolt on a separate provider just for that is a real pain.
The response times are shockingly fast, way snappier than the geolocation APIs I've been using. Really like that the data is first-party instead of the usual reseller setup.
Would love to see a websocket or streaming endpoint for bulk lookups, since hitting the API one IP at a time gets slow when youre enriching large traffic logs. Also a quick CLI tool would make testing way easier without writing scripts every time.
