IP Address Lookup

📖 Tool Introduction

Type in an IP address to find out where it belongs, or leave the field empty to look up the address you are currently going out through. The result is not one provider's guess: four public IP databases are queried at the same time, their answers are laid side by side, and a weighted vote decides the country, region and city.

The result tells you plainly how far the answer can be trusted. If it resolves to a city you get city level, if only the region is known you get region level, and if only the country survives you get country level, alongside an agreement rating across the four sources. What each source said, and whether it matched the final verdict, is listed line by line rather than hidden.

Addresses that belong to proxies, VPNs, cloud hosts or data centre exits get flagged separately, with a note explaining that the location shown is where the machine sits and says nothing about where the person using it actually is. All lookups are issued from your browser, and nothing is logged or uploaded.

You might wonder why the same IP comes back as a different city on different websites. The reason is that every provider collects data differently: some rely on network ranges registered by carriers, some on location samples reported by users, and some estimate from routing latency. Each carries its own bias, so rather than picking one for you, this tool puts all four answers side by side and lets you judge which to believe.

One more point that is easy to miss: a lot of broadband and mobile traffic now exits through a carrier's centralised gateway, and that gateway can sit hundreds of kilometres away. In that situation every database will report the city where the gateway is, no matter which one you ask. When a result contradicts where you actually are, check whether you are on a proxy or simply using a cellular connection.

A few fields tend to confuse people, so here is what they mean. ASN is the number of the autonomous system the address belongs to, which usually maps to one carrier or one company. The organisation field is the body registered against that network range, so for a data centre address it often shows the cloud provider's name. The timezone is the local time where the address sits, which gives you a rough idea of the working hours on the other end.

✨ Key Features

• Four IP databases queried in parallel instead of one, so a single provider having a bad day does not cost you a result
• Weighted voting on country, region and city, comparing values after stripping administrative suffixes like province, city, state and county
• An explicit precision level, city, region or country, so you never mistake a rough answer for an exact one
• A cross-source agreement rating of high, medium or low that shows at a glance whether the verdict holds up
• Detection of proxy, VPN, Tor, data centre and hosting exits, with a prominent warning whenever one is matched
• A per-source breakdown listing each database's own answer and whether it agreed, so you can judge for yourself

🚀 How to Use

1. On open it automatically looks up your current public address, with nothing to type
2. To check another address, enter it and press query, or just hit Enter
3. Read the precision and agreement badges at the top first to decide whether the result is trustworthy
4. Below that are twelve fields including country, region, city, postal code, coordinates, timezone, ISP, organisation and ASN
5. Use copy IP for the address alone, or copy all to take the entire result

⚠️ Things to Note

• IP geolocation is inherently approximate: Every IP database gives an estimate. City level is good enough for most purposes but will never be street accurate
• Proxy and data centre addresses cannot be trusted: For a proxy, VPN or cloud host the location is wherever the machine sits, which has nothing to do with where the user is
• Sources can disagree: When the four databases differ on country, region or city the disagreement is shown honestly, so consult the per-source list
• IPv6 coverage is thinner: Some providers hold less complete data for IPv6 than for IPv4, so occasional fields may come back empty
• An internet connection is required: Lookups go to public endpoints, so nothing comes back offline. The addresses you query are not stored
