What ipgeolocation.io does

ipgeolocation.io is a horizontal IP intelligence platform operated by JFreaks Software Solutions LLC, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Orlando, Florida with engineering operations in Lahore, Pakistan. The company sells both a REST API suite and a downloadable database catalog that map any IPv4 or IPv6 address to location, timezone, ASN, owning organization, threat indicators (VPN, proxy, Tor, bot, residential proxy), abuse contacts, and company identity. Seven APIs (IP Geolocation, IP Security, ASN, Astronomy, Timezone, User Agent, IP Abuse Contact) sit alongside nine packaged databases sold for offline or embedded use. Underlying technology is an in-memory indexed architecture with global edge presence across seven regions and Cloudflare-backed DDoS protection, supporting a stated 99.99% uptime SLA and sub-40ms response times.

The business model combines a freemium developer-led growth motion (1,000 free requests/day) with paid subscriptions starting at $19/month, plus time-limited per-server database licenses, Snowflake Marketplace data sharing, and enterprise contracts on custom terms. Distribution spans direct self-serve signup, enterprise field sales, and marketplace/automation ecosystems including Snowflake, Zapier, WordPress, Shopify, Elastic, n8n, Pipedream, Make, Maltego, Google Sheets, and an MCP server for AI-agent integration. The platform claims 700,000+ active developers and a marquee enterprise logo set spanning telecom (Verizon, AT&T, Bell Canada), aerospace (SpaceX), automotive (Toyota, Mercedes, Ford), pharma (Pfizer, Roche), technology (Atlassian, VMware, Tencent, Baidu, Intuit), and media (Dow Jones, Taboola).

Customers are segmented horizontally: enterprise fraud and compliance teams, website operators needing geo-redirects and content control, network and security teams running abuse response workflows, marketing/analytics teams personalizing content, sales/RevOps identifying accounts from anonymous traffic, and developers building IP-aware applications. Geographic restrictions on the platform exclude defense, military, gambling, adult content, dating, and alcohol industry use cases, and the company maintains GDPR and CCPA compliance posture with sub-processors including AWS, Paddle, and Cloudflare.

Core offering

ipgeolocation.io provides IP intelligence and network lookup APIs (IP Geolocation, IP Security, ASN, IP Abuse Contact, User Agent) alongside utility APIs (Timezone, Astronomy) and downloadable IP intelligence databases. Customers send IP addresses or related inputs to the APIs to retrieve location, network, threat, timezone, astronomical, and device data, or purchase databases for offline lookups. The offering is consumed by developers and enterprises via direct subscriptions, third-party app marketplaces, and integration platforms.

Product overview

IPGeolocation.io is an IP intelligence platform offering both REST APIs and downloadable databases for geolocation, threat detection, and network analysis. The core product suite consists of seven APIs (IP Geolocation, IP Security, ASN, IP Abuse Contact, Timezone, Astronomy, User Agent) and nine database products (IP Geolocation, IP Security, IP Company, IP to ASN, IP Abuse Contact, IP Whois, ASN Whois, IP Hosting, Residential Proxy). APIs provide real-time lookups with sub-40ms response times, while databases are available in MMDB, CSV, and JSON formats for offline embedding. The platform also offers database bundles organized into three tiers: Geo Standard (location/ISP databases), Geo Advance (geolocation with ASN, company, WHOIS, abuse contact), and Security Pro (threat intelligence including proxies, VPNs, Tor, bots, residential proxies, hosting IPs). Data is updated multiple times per week with IPv4 and IPv6 coverage across all products.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• IP Geolocation API REST API that maps an IPv4/IPv6 address to geographic, network (ISP/ASN), timezone, currency, and security attributes; consumed by developers and enterprises for content localization, compliance, analytics, ad targeting, and fraud reduction.
• IP Security API API that evaluates an IP address for proxy, VPN, Tor, and abuse/threat signals; used by security and fraud teams to score inbound traffic and block malicious requests.
• ASN API Lookup API that returns the Autonomous System Number, owning organization, registry, and related routing data for a given IP; used by network engineers, security teams, and analytics applications.
• IP Abuse Contact API API that resolves an IP address or CIDR range to abuse reporting contacts (email, phone, organization); intended for hosting providers, CDNs, and security teams that need to file abuse reports.
• User Agent API API that parses a User-Agent string into structured fields such as browser, operating system, device type, and rendering engine; used by web developers and analytics teams for device-aware rendering and reporting.
• Timezone API API that returns the IANA timezone, UTC offset, and current local time for given coordinates or an IP address; used by application developers to localize timestamps, scheduling, and user-facing displays.
• Astronomy API API that provides astronomy data such as sun and moon positions, sunrise/sunset, moonrise/moonset, and related celestial events for a location and date; used by consumer apps, calendar products, and IoT/weather integrations.
• IP Intelligence and Proxy Databases (Downloadable) Downloadable, periodically refreshed IP intelligence and proxy databases for IPv4 and IPv6 ranges; intended for teams that need to perform IP lookups locally without per-request API calls.

Direct peers

• MaxMind: The incumbent in IP geolocation and threat intelligence, offering GeoIP databases and minFraud services. Directly competes with ipgeolocation.io across both downloadable databases and API products for fraud prevention and compliance use cases.
• WhoisXML API: Provides WHOIS, IP geolocation, threat intelligence, and ASN/DNS data via APIs and databases. Overlaps significantly with ipgeolocation.io's whois, ASN, and abuse-contact product lines.
• IPinfo: IP intelligence provider offering IP geolocation, ASN, company, privacy, and carrier data via APIs and databases. Closely comparable product breadth and developer-first GTM, including Snowflake Marketplace listings.
• Digital Element (NetAcuity): Enterprise-focused IP geolocation and intelligence vendor (formerly NetAcuity). Targets the same fraud, ad-tech, and content-localization use cases with premium enterprise positioning.
• IP2Location: Long-standing IP geolocation database and API provider covering location, proxy, ASN, and ISP data. Competes directly in both database-licensing and API subscription models.

Emerging players

• AbuseIPDB: Community-driven IP abuse and threat-intelligence database with API access. Overlaps with ipgeolocation.io's abuse contact and IP security products, primarily serving security researchers.
• ipapi (iplocation.net): Developer-focused IP geolocation API with freemium pricing similar to ipgeolocation.io. Competes on cost and simplicity for SMB and developer segments.

Broad incumbents

• Neustar IP Intelligence (TransUnion): Enterprise IP intelligence and identity-resolution suite now part of TransUnion. Offers broader fraud, risk, and marketing data alongside IP context, competing for large enterprise contracts.
• F5 (Shape Security / Threat Stack): Application security and fraud-prevention incumbent with overlapping bot-detection and IP intelligence capabilities within a broader app delivery and security portfolio.
• Cloudflare: Edge and security platform that already powers ipgeolocation.io's infrastructure and increasingly bundles IP context, bot management, and threat intelligence into its own product, posing a substitution risk.
