   Hey destroyer998, you can do PTR lookups using the IP info API. There's also the host reputation API for checking DNSBLs. We have thought about some other DNS related APIs.. what would you be using it for?

   Yeah I agree, thinking of making that more obvious on the website as the API tools are super useful for testing and for one-off / manual jobs as well

   Thanks lappa, good points. That's definitely what we are focusing more on (stuff that you can't simply use a standard software library for)

   We already have large commercial customers pushing more than a million data sets per hour for bulk processing.. its a fairly common use-case for us. Also, you are greatly over simplifying these problems with a "I could build that"

   Well we all have to start somewhere! =) Plus we already have loads of happy customers that have been using some of our older APIs for more than a year now. Further to this, defensive programming goes a long way when working with APIs (both

   While this can be true for some problems i'm not sure you have really thought about the details of the problems we solve other than a cursory glance. Firstly, although python has loads of great open source libraries, you wont find any

   Thanks Fannon, we have been thinking about this quite a bit however the main issue is with data updates (which happen at a minimum on a daily basis). So if we did release something like this it would only be a suitable solution for online e

   We have something like that already! If you signup for an account you can login and use our "API tools". No coding required, just a simple web based form you can enter data into and test out all the APIs =)

    Most of the APIs require data to be gathered, analysed and updated on a daily or weekly basis (e.g. BIN lookup, IP Info, Geocode, IP blocklist, User-agent Info, Phone validate). Some need to connect directly to other networks (e.g. Phone ve

    Thanks for the feedback JusticeJuice! We have definitely focused more on the API side of things more than the website at this stage but lots of website updates are in the works

    You could say that about any PaaS, SaaS or API. But most of us have to depend on web APIs at some level. Most internet connected apps need some external services or APIs to keep them running properly. Also, because of the nature of some of

    Cheers luisrudge! I agree about the menu, we do have plans to change the layout to make it more like a traditional API docs page with the left hand contents/index panel type thing..

    Some of the APIs solve very complex problems indeed, which require constant maintenance and development on our part. However, this is the accumulation of about 15 years of software development across various projects and programming languag
