IPinfo

aid: ipinfo
name: IPinfo
description: >-
  IPinfo is an IP address data and intelligence platform that provides geolocation (country, region, city, coordinates,
  postal, timezone), ASN data, company association, mobile carrier identification, hosted domains lookup, privacy
  detection (VPN, proxy, Tor, relay, hosting), residential proxy detection, WHOIS, IP ranges, abuse contacts, and an
  IP-to-Places product. Data is available via a unified REST API (Lite, Core, Plus, Max, Enterprise tiers), a Batch
  Enrichment endpoint, and downloadable databases (CSV, MMDB, JSON, Parquet). Authentication uses access tokens via
  Basic Auth, Bearer Token, or query parameter; dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 endpoints are available.
