Abstract API Phone Validation

Abstract API's Phone Number Validation & Verification API validates and verifies a phone number in a single REST request. Given a number (ideally in E.164 format) it returns whether the number is valid, its local and international formats, the country, the registered location, the line type (mobile, landline, VoIP, and more), and the carrier - useful for form validation, lead scoring, fraud prevention, and cleaning phone data. The endpoint is a single authenticated GET call with the API key passed as a query parameter, and Abstract offers a free tier alongside paid plans. Phone Validation is one product in the broader Abstract API suite, which also includes email validation, IP geolocation, company enrichment, and other data APIs; each product has its own host and its own API key.

Abstract API Phone Validation publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Phone Validation API. Tagged areas include Number Verification, Phone Validation, Phone Number, Phone Number Lookup, and Verification.

Abstract API Phone Validation’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, and 8 more developer resources.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Abstract API Phone Validation, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
