IPWho IP Geolocation API by ipwho.org

Are you tired of watching your geolocation API costs skyrocket, feeling like you're paying a premium just for the convenience of the cloud? Meet the IPWho IP Geolocation API from ipwho.org, engineered from the ground up to deliver lightning-fast, highly accurate location data without the unnecessary cloud overhead. We built this service directly on our own bare-metal infrastructure, strategically positioned across more than 14 key global locations. This dedicated setup translates directly into superior performance for your users, offering remarkably low latency whether your audience is across the street or across the globe. Forget vague location pins; IPWho provides the precise details you need to power your applications, including comprehensive country, city, time zone, and currency information, alongside crucial Autonomous System Number (ASN) and Internet Service Provider (ISP) identification. This isn't just about knowing where someone is; it’s about having the foundational data necessary for smart routing, localized content delivery, and robust security checks, all delivered reliably and affordably.

What truly sets IPWho apart is our commitment to developers and scalable pricing that respects your budget. We understand that testing and initial integration shouldn't require a financial commitment, which is why we offer a generous free tier of 2,000 requests every single day—no credit card needed to get started. As your application scales, our paid plans are designed to be exceptionally cost-effective, allowing you to handle massive volumes, such as 250,000 requests daily, for as little as ten dollars a month. Beyond basic location, IPWho integrates essential security intelligence directly into every lookup. You gain immediate insight into whether an IP address is associated with a known VPN, proxy service, or Tor exit node. This capability is invaluable for fraud prevention, compliance checks, and ensuring that you are interacting with genuine users, adding a critical layer of defense to your platform without needing to integrate a separate security tool. It’s the complete geolocation and security toolkit, optimized for speed and built for the modern developer who demands performance without compromise.
