IP Geolocation API

Accurate IP-to-location mapping with ASN ownership, organization data, and threat context. Power fraud detection, compliance geofencing, and security alert enrichment.

What you can do

Real outcomes teams achieve with IP Geolocation

Geographic Location

Get country, region, city, coordinates, timezone, and postal code for any IPv4 or IPv6 address with high accuracy.

Privacy & Anonymization Signals

Flag Tor exit nodes, hosting / datacenter ASNs, iCloud Private Relay and Cloudflare WARP egress ranges, and known VPN networks — built into the geolocation response so fraud and access-control rules don't need a second API call.

Network Intelligence

Identify ASN ownership, ISP/organization operating the IP range, network type (residential, business, datacenter), and RPKI Route Origin Validation status — the canonical signal for BGP hijack and route-leak detection. Organization name populates for every allocated ASN, not just a curated list.

Reverse DNS & Email Deliverability

PTR lookups with forward-confirmed reverse DNS validation across up to 10 hostnames, plus a one-word deliverability verdict (pass / warn_generic / warn_no_fcrdns / fail_no_ptr) so mail-ops teams skip writing their own scoring logic.

Abuse Contact Lookup

Top-level `abuse_contact` field on every IP WHOIS and IP range response — pulled from `role=abuse` RDAP entities first, then RIPE-style `abuse-mailbox` vCard extensions, so both ARIN and RIPE networks yield a directly-usable abuse email without a second lookup.

Bogon Detection

Identify private, reserved, and invalid IP addresses that should never appear on the public internet.

Geolocate an IP address
const response = await fetch(
  'https://api.edgedns.dev/v1/ip/geolocation?ip=8.8.8.8',
  { headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' } }
);

const { data } = await response.json();
console.log({
  country: data.country.name,     // "United States"
  city: data.city,                // "Mountain View"
  organization: data.asn.organization // "Google LLC"
});
