Is this your product? Claim it to see how agents find it: lookups through the API, MCP and letme, the comparisons it's in, and what people search for in Security intel. Free, and it never changes the grade. Or verify it, or log in if it's already claimed.

Assessment. A free Lite tier with no request cap, a public OpenAPI document, llms.txt, a batch endpoint of 1,000 lookups and a six-tool hosted MCP server with OAuth. No status page or SLA was found, the only documented error is 429, the token may travel in a query string, and city-level and privacy data need a paid plan.

From our research 7 facts checked against the vendor's pages
Surface listed
The REST API at api.ipinfo.io and the hosted MCP server at mcp.ipinfo.io, read from ipinfo.io/developers and its Markdown twins, the OpenAPI document, the pricing, terms and privacy pages, the MCP registry, PyPI and a shallow clone of ipinfo/mcp on 3 November 2026. No account was made and no call was sent
Tiers
Lite (free) returns country, continent and ASN. Core adds city, region, coordinates, timezone, postal code, ASN type and flags for anonymous, anycast, hosting, mobile and satellite. Plus adds accuracy radius, carrier, VPN, proxy, Tor and relay names and last-changed dates. Max adds residential proxy detection and place details. Company, WHOIS, abuse contact, hosted domains and IP ranges are enterprise only
Endpoints
GET /lite/{ip}, /lookup/{ip}, /{ip}/{field}, /AS{asn}, /ranges/{domain}, /domains/{ip}, /{ip}/privacy, /resproxy/{ip} and /whois/*. POST /batch, /batch/lite and /batch/legacy. v4 and v6 subdomains force one address family
Limits
Lite unlimited. Core 150,000 and Max 250,000 requests a month, then 429 or metered overage. No per-second, hourly or daily caps are documented
MCP server
ipinfo-mcp-server 0.2.3, Apache-2.0, Python 3.14. Tools ipinfo_lookup, ipinfo_geolocate, ipinfo_asn, ipinfo_check_privacy, ipinfo_check_residential_proxy and ipinfo_quota, each with tool annotations. Hosted with OAuth or a Bearer token, local over stdio with IPINFO_TOKEN. Responses carry _meta with cache hits. Errors NO_TOKEN, INVALID_TOKEN, ACCESS_DENIED, RATE_LIMITED, API_ERROR
Data use
Internal business use under the terms. Selling or reselling the data needs written consent and external commercial use an OEM agreement. The privacy policy of 29 October 2026 names a DPA and lists processors
Company
IPinfo Inc., Seattle, founded in 2013 by Ben Dowling, bootstrapped and founder-led per its own AI information page. Ben Dowling and Paul Heywood are co-CEOs

Facts verified 3 November 2026 from vendor docs, repositories and package registries. JSON · Markdown

Strengths

  • Lite tier is free with no daily or monthly limit and no card, and Core overage is priced per 1,000 requests on the public pricing page
  • Public OpenAPI 3.0 document with 48 operations, plus llms.txt and llms-full.txt and Markdown twins of every docs page
  • Hosted MCP server with OAuth and six read-only tools, in the official MCP registry, with per-session caching and structured error codes
  • Batch endpoint takes up to 1,000 lookups per request, and field paths such as /country return one value
  • Valid security.txt with a PGP key, a security policy with response times, and official SDKs in eleven languages

Weaknesses

  • No status page, incident history or SLA was found; the terms supply the service as is
  • Only 429 is documented as an error response, and no Retry-After or backoff guidance was found
  • The token is accepted as a query parameter, and no scoped or read-only tokens were found
  • No public changelog or deprecation policy; the legacy API is maintained with no end date
  • City geolocation, privacy flags and residential proxy signals need Core or Max, and company, WHOIS and abuse contact data are enterprise only

Before you call it notes for agents

  1. Call https://api.ipinfo.io/lite/{ip} with Authorization: Bearer on a free token; /lookup/{ip} and detailed=true in the MCP tools return ACCESS_DENIED without a paid plan
  2. Batch up to 1,000 addresses in one POST to /batch/lite or /batch with filter=1; each address counts as one request against the monthly quota
  3. Append a field path such as /country or /asn to get a single plain-text value instead of the full object
  4. On a 429 the monthly plan quota is spent; there is no Retry-After, so stop and report rather than retry
  5. Treat the data as licensed for internal use; selling or reselling it needs IPinfo's written consent under the terms

A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. It isn't legal advice, a rule can miss a clause or misread one, and the document itself is what binds. How it's read and scored.

The terms, last updated 3 June 2024, name IPinfo Inc. under Washington law with JAMS arbitration in King County. The privacy policy, effective 29 October 2026, gives a Seattle business address and names the processors.

The terms forbid robots, spiders or any automated program to retrieve, index, scrape or data-mine the site. Public pages were read for this listing and the clause is recorded as a fact.

ipinfo.io/robots.txt disallows the data endpoints (paths ending in json, ip, hostname, city and the other field names), URLs with a colon, token and callback parameters, /case-studies/ and /probenet/live/. None was fetched; the docs and OpenAPI document were read instead.

No status page was found. status.ipinfo.io does not resolve and the site links none.

The changelog link is the MCP server's GitHub releases. No changelog for the REST API was found.

security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt is valid until 21 August 2027 with a PGP key. RDAP at Identity Digital gives a registration date of 23 April 2013.

Checked 2026-11-03 against the vendor's own pages and the domain registry. Provenance is half of Transparency & trust.

IPinfo Inc. on LinkedIn @ipinfo GitHub

Researched 3 November 2026 from public pages. Ben Dowling is named as founder on the blog's author page and the information-for-ai page, and as co-CEO with Paul Heywood in the blog post announcing the change (shown as about a year old on 3 November 2026, with no absolute date). Oliver Gasser is named Head of Research in a blog post and is not listed as he is neither a founder nor a company officer. No personal LinkedIn, X or GitHub account is linked from ipinfo.io for either person, so none is given. Investors were looked for on the about page, the information-for-ai page (which says bootstrapped and founder-led), the company news blog index, the terms and privacy policy and one outside search; no round or investor was found. The Scaleway Startup Program named by an aggregator is a support programme, not an investment. Shown for information, not part of the grade yet.

Score breakdown methodology v0.7 · October 2026 research run

Assessed on 3 November 2026 from public evidence, against the published checklist. Confidence medium. Performance and Task success are pending until our probes and task suites run, so the total is over the 7 assessed categories, each weight divided by 80.

CategoryWeight this runScorePoints
Reliabilitychecked 3 November 2026 16%20 7.6
Read with the hosted lines. No status page was found; status.ipinfo.io does not resolve and the site, docs and llms.txt link none (0). No readable history (5). Limits are published with numbers, Lite unlimited, Core 150,000 and Max 250,000 requests a month, with no per-second cap (15). A 429 is documented in the OpenAPI document and the developer page for the monthly quota, and the MCP server maps it to RATE_LIMITED, but no Retry-After or backoff guidance was found; every call is a read (8 of 15). No SLA; the terms supply the service as is and as available (0). The API and the MCP server are generally available (10). 0 + 5 + 15 + 8 + 0 + 10 = 38.

Schema & documentationchecked 3 November 2026 13%16.2 12.3
The surface graded is the REST API, with the hosted MCP server noted. A public OpenAPI 3.0 document with 48 operations, and the MCP tools carry JSON Schema inputs (25). llms.txt and llms-full.txt, and every developer page is served as Markdown (10). Each tier page says what it returns and which plan unlocks it, and the MCP tool descriptions say which tiers each option needs, with little on when not to call (14 of 20). Schemas and examples on most responses, path parameters typed, but 401 is undocumented and some operations lack the 429 response (11 of 15). Examples in several languages on every page; only 429 is documented as an error, with no error body shape (9 of 15). A new API system since 2025 with the legacy one kept, but no public changelog, no version in the path and the OpenAPI document at 1.0.0 (7 of 15). 25 + 10 + 14 + 11 + 9 + 7 = 76.
Agent ergonomicschecked 3 November 2026 13%16.2 13.7
Field paths such as /country return one value, the Lite and lookup objects are small, and the MCP server has six compact tools with a per-session cache (23 of 25). Batch takes up to 1,000 lookups with filter=1 to drop empty results; no pagination is needed on single lookups, and ASN and range responses have no size control (16 of 20). The only documented error is 429; the MCP server returns coded errors with a message and a suggestion (12 of 20). Every call is a read, batch is a read over POST, and the MCP tools carry tool annotations (18 of 20). One parameter per call, sensible defaults and official SDKs in eleven languages (15). 23 + 16 + 12 + 18 + 15 = 84.
Security & authchecked 3 November 2026 14%17.5 10.5
One access token per account, accepted as a Bearer header, HTTP Basic or a token query parameter, with no scopes found; the hosted MCP server adds OAuth with short-lived tokens (20 less 10 for the query string, plus 4 for OAuth on the MCP server, so 14). Every endpoint is a read and tools return ACCESS_DENIED outside the plan, but there is no read-only or restricted token (16 of 20). Responses are structured network data rather than third-party free text (10 of 15). The dashboard shows request graphs and lookup history per the pricing page, with no per-call log documented (8 of 15). security.txt valid until 21 August 2027 with a PGP key, a SECURITY.md with 2-day acknowledgement and a 90-day disclosure window, no bug bounty or certification found beyond a bank-grade claim (12 of 20). 14 + 16 + 10 + 8 + 12 = 60.

Fix list 17 items, the biggest gain first

Everything this grade says the listing lacks, from the reasons above, the checklist, the provenance checks, the deductions, what we couldn't check and what the review panel asked for, with the steps, ready to paste into a coding agent working on IPinfo. A fix counts at the next check, once it's public.

What we couldn't check

  • unchecked: the components.securitySchemes block and the final 16,000 characters of the OpenAPI document, which were not read
  • unchecked: GitHub issue and pull request responsiveness on ipinfo/mcp, since GitHub's API answered 403 on the repository endpoint; the registry and PyPI dates stand in
  • Whether Plus is sold on its own; the pricing page lists Lite, Core, Max and Enterprise while the docs and MCP server describe a Plus tier
  • What the dashboard logs per request, since the pricing page names request graphs and lookup history but no per-call log is documented
  • firstReleased is the domain registration date, 23 April 2013; the about page says the company has run since 2013
  • The terms forbid automated retrieval of the site; public pages and the docs were read for this listing and the clause is recorded as a fact

For the vendor

Is this your product? Link to this page from your own site or README, then tell us where. It shows people and agents that the listing is yours and that you know it's here. It never changes a grade, rank or review.

  1. Add the badge or a link

    IPinfo on Anchor Terminal, B, 62.7/100
    On a light page
    On a dark page
    <a href="https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/ipinfo"><img src="https://www.anchorterminal.com/badges/ipinfo.svg" alt="IPinfo on Anchor Terminal" height="20"></a>
    [![IPinfo on Anchor Terminal](https://www.anchorterminal.com/badges/ipinfo.svg)](https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/ipinfo)
    <a href="https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/ipinfo">IPinfo on Anchor Terminal</a>

    It counts on a page on ipinfo.io or one of its subdomains, or the README at the root of github.com/ipinfo/mcp.

  2. Tell us where it is

    We read it once now and again every week. If the link is missing two weeks in a row the listing says so, and a later check puts it back.

Agents send the same to POST /api/v1/verify as {"slug": "ipinfo", "url": "…"}, or call the verify_listing tool at /mcp. Ten checks an hour from one address. What we check. To announce the listing, get sharing assets for social media.

For companies

Do agents find, use and choose your tools?

An agent-readiness audit runs our probes, task suite and eight reviewer agents against your public and internal tools, and comes back with a scorecard, the transcripts of what failed, and a fix list in priority order. From $2,500, re-run included. We never take payment to move a rank. We do help companies earn one.
