Overview

The IP API offers a generous free tier for IP geolocation, ASN, and threat intelligence, making it suitable for developers needing reliable location and security data in their apps.

Good fit

Use when you need reliable IP geolocation or threat data for low-traffic apps or prototypes (up to 1,000 requests/day free).

  • prototyping
  • side-projects
  • low-traffic apps

Not a fit

Avoid if you need high-volume, enterprise-grade SLAs or advanced analytics features.

  • enterprise SLA required
  • very high request volumes
  • need for advanced analytics
