About PINIP.net
Free IP geolocation and network intelligence for everyone.
About PINIP.net
PINIP.net is an independent free IP geolocation and network intelligence service. We help visitors, developers, and administrators answer practical questions: where is this IP registered, who operates the network, is it likely VPN or hosting traffic, and what else is on the same server?
Founded to be faster and more transparent than single-source lookup sites, PINIP merges multiple public providers and shows each result in its own card—similar to leading industry tools, with a focused set of six core utilities.
What we offer
Data sources
We combine responses from approved third-party APIs and databases, including:
- IP-API.com — geolocation and ISP fields
- IPWhois.app — location and network metadata
- ipwho.is — open JSON geolocation API
- ipapi.co — IP geolocation (free tier)
- GeoJS — open geo data via get.geojs.io
- ProxyCheck.io — proxy/VPN and risk signals
- Team Cymru — BGP/ASN context
- Open Elevation — terrain elevation where coordinates exist
A merged PINIP.net summary selects the best available field per attribute. Provider cards let you compare disagreements side by side.
Data accuracy & limitations
IP geolocation is inherently approximate. Results may show the wrong city for mobile, VPN, satellite, or anycast networks. Do not rely on PINIP.net for emergency services, legal evidence, or precise street addresses.
