It’s a great observation that those TXT records are (of course) public.
Could be interesting to scrape some data to estimate the penetration of particular SaaS providers eg Google, Atlassian, etc.
- welder 3y agoIt doesn't tell you which Atlassian or Google products are used. Could be as simple as wanting access to Google Search Console, formerly Webmaster Tools, or wanting to publish an app to the Atlassian Marketplace. It doesn't mean they use Gmail or Jira.
- unfunco 3y agoThe MX records will tell you they use Gmail.
- pul 3y agoI've done this for https://www.nslookup.io https://www.nslookup.io. Downloaded a list of the 1 million most popular domain names, scraped TXT records for them, and mined common patterns to add formatting with logos to the TXT records section. Here they are for the example OP gave: https://www.nslookup.io/domains/stripe.com/dns-records/ https://www.nslookup.io/domains/stripe.com/dns-records/ Looks like I need to rerun the script and add some logos (:
- reginaldo 3y agoI did it on 2.5 million domains from the various top 1 million lists and here are the ones with over 10 thousand matches: 11308 include 12284 stripe-verification 13377 cisco-ci-domain-verification 15123 zoho-verification 15621 knowbe4-site-verification 18764 Sendinblue-code 19472 amazonses 21264 adobe-idp-site-verification 23791 klaviyo-site-verification 24156 docusign 27694 yandex-verification 34068 globalsign-domain-verification 55512 atlassian-domain-verification 65353 apple-domain-verification 70535 _globalsign-domain-verification 74467 155337 facebook-domain-verification 400513 MS 1025970 google-site-verification
