Accurate geolocation

Country, region, city, coordinates, timezone, currency and ASN for any IPv4 or IPv6 address.

Proxy & VPN detection

Flag datacenter ranges, proxies, VPNs and Tor exit nodes in real time to stop abuse.

Bot & AI-agent detection

Our differentiator: deep JA4/JA4H/JA4T/QUIC fingerprinting catches bots and AI agents other geo APIs miss.

Fast & reliable

Built for low latency at the edge. Target <50 ms responses and 99.9% uptime.*

100+ data fields

From geolocation to network type, reputation and an explainable risk verdict — one call.

Explainable & self-hostable

Every verdict lists the exact signals. Pure-Go binary you can run yourself, or use our API.

* Performance and uptime are targets / SLA goals, not guarantees on the free tier.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the IP geolocation?

Country-level accuracy is very high; city-level accuracy depends on the IP and region. We are transparent about confidence and degrade gracefully to country level when city data is not available.

Do you detect VPNs, proxies and bots?

Yes. We classify datacenter, proxy, VPN and Tor traffic, and uniquely add deep network fingerprinting (JA4/QUIC) to detect bots and AI agents — not just geolocation.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — 1,000 checks per month, free forever, no credit card. Paid plans add deeper data, higher quotas and reputation/analytics.

How fast is the API?

It is built for low latency at the edge, targeting sub-50 ms responses. Exact latency depends on your region and plan.

Are you GDPR/CCPA friendly?

IP geolocation can be done without storing personal data. You control what you log; we offer self-hosting for full data control.

Can I self-host?

Yes. detectip.ai ships as a single pure-Go binary with Docker, so you can run the full engine yourself.
