What this does
So you have an IP address and you want to know more about it: where it is roughly located, who it belongs to, and whether it looks like a proxy or a hosting provider. This looks it up. Enter the IP, press Lookup, and you get the details back.
How to use it
- Enter the IP address you want to look up, like
8.8.8.8. - Press Lookup.
- Read the location, network, and flag details in the result.
How it works
When you press Lookup, the tool sends the IP address to an IP information service, ipapi.co, which holds a database mapping addresses to locations and network owners, and shows you what comes back. So unlike a tool that works purely on your own machine, this one does send the address you enter to that service to be looked up.
The details come from that database: the approximate location, the timezone and currency for that area, the internet provider and organisation behind the address, its ASN, which is the identifier for the network it belongs to, and best guess flags for whether it is a proxy or a hosting address.
How accurate it is
IP geolocation is an estimate, not a precise fix. The country is usually right, but the city and region are educated guesses based on how the address is registered and routed, and they can be off, sometimes landing on the provider's location rather than the user's. The proxy and hosting flags are likewise the service's best assessment rather than a certainty. It is a useful picture of an address, as long as you treat the finer location details as approximate.
Questions people ask
How accurate is the location?
The country is usually reliable, but the city and region are estimates and can be wrong. Treat the precise location as a rough guide rather than an exact position.
What is an ASN?
An Autonomous System Number, the identifier for the network an address belongs to, typically an internet provider or a large organisation. It is a useful way to see who routes the address.
Is the IP I enter sent anywhere?
Yes. To look it up, the tool sends the address to the ipapi.co information service, which returns the details shown.
What do the proxy and hosting flags mean?
They are the service's best guess at whether the address belongs to a proxy or VPN, or to a hosting or data centre provider, rather than a home connection. They are indicators, not guarantees.
