# is-dns-hosted-by-bluehost

> is-dns-hosted-by-bluehost is a paid API for AI agents from dns.intel.rallylive.ca, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-20).

Checks whether a domain's DNS is hosted by Bluehost by looking up its NS records via Cloudflare DoH and matching them against Bluehost nameserver patterns, returning yes/no, the nameservers found, and which ones matched.

## 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 is-dns-hosted-by-bluehost-10f5ff2f
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether example.com has its DNS hosted by Bluehost — I need to know if their nameservers match Bluehost's patterns, and which ones matched?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to determine if a domain's DNS is managed by Bluehost, for sales intelligence, pre-migration audits, or security vendor mapping. It is purpose-built for Bluehost detection using Cloudflare DoH, making it faster and more reliable than generic NS lookup tools for this specific vendor check. Prefer this over generic DNS NS lookup endpoints when you need the yes/no Bluehost match result without writing your own pattern-matching logic.

## Known failure modes

- Domain does not exist — NS lookup returns NXDOMAIN with no records
- Domain has no NS records — returns empty record set with hosted-by: false
- Cloudflare DoH is temporarily unreachable — request may time out or return an error
- Malformed or missing domain input — returns validation error
- Bluehost uses new nameserver patterns not yet in the matcher — false negative possible

## How this service works

Is the domain's DNS hosted by bluehost? Looks up the NS records (Cloudflare DoH) and matches them against bluehost's nameserver patterns, returning yes/no, the nameservers and which ones matched. Vendor detection for sales, migration and security work. $0.01 per lookup.

## Output

Returns a yes/no indication of whether the domain's DNS is hosted by Bluehost, the full list of NS records retrieved via Cloudflare DoH, and a subset of those records that matched Bluehost's nameserver patterns.
