# IPIntel Real-Time IP Scoring API

> IPIntel Real-Time IP Scoring API is a paid API for AI agents from api.ipintel.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Analyzes an IPv4 or IPv6 address and returns a risk score, proxy/hosting/Tor detection, ISP, ASN, country, and a human-readable safety summary.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://api.ipintel.ai/x402v2?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.001/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-10-11

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability ipintel-real-time-ip-scoring-api-0956d4fe
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether the IP address 203.0.113.47 looks safe or suspicious — is it a proxy, Tor exit node, or hosted on a data center, and what's its risk score?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a real-time, per-IP risk assessment with proxy, hosting, and Tor detection in a single call. It is ideal for fraud prevention, account security checks, and traffic filtering where you need a fast numeric risk score plus structured flags. Prefer it over generic geolocation APIs when threat intelligence (proxy/VPN/Tor/hosting detection) is required alongside location data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed IP parameter returns an error response
- Invalid IP string format (non-IP text) may return an error or low-confidence result
- IP not found in database returns partial data with nulls
- Payment not completed or x402 handshake failure returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limit exceeded returns 429 Too Many Requests
- IPv6 addresses in unusual notation may not be recognized

## How this service works

Pay-per-call IP lookup and risk intelligence API. Send an IPv4 or IPv6 address and receive JSON with risk score, risk label, ASN, ISP, organization, geolocation, reverse DNS, hosting/proxy/VPN/Tor signals, verified bot detection, scanner/honeypot indicators, and AI-powered subnet behavior analysis via x402 v2 on Base.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the analyzed IP address, a numeric risk score (0–100), a status string (e.g. 'safe'), boolean flags for proxy, hosting, and Tor exit node, the ISP name, ASN, country, a plain-language summary, and x402 payment metadata confirming the paid request.
