How this service works
Metered web utilities for developers and AI agents: browser screenshot and PDF, crypto, DNS and net tools. Pay per request with x402 (USDC on Base) or prepaid API keys.
Output
Returns a JSON object with ok (boolean), the utility name, a requestId for tracking, the number of chargedCredits consumed, and DNS record data for the queried domain including record types, values, and TTLs.
Example use cases
Email deliverability DNS audit
“Check the MX and TXT DNS records for mycompany.com — I need to verify that SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are properly set up before we launch our email campaign.”
Domain IP resolution for deployment
“What IP address does api.myservice.io resolve to right now? I just updated the A record and want to confirm DNS has propagated.”
Competitor infrastructure reconnaissance
“Can you pull all the DNS records for competitor.com — NS, A, CNAME, MX — so I can understand how their infrastructure is set up?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://util.beauty/v1/net/dnsWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic DNS lookups within an agent workflow, especially when you want pay-per-use pricing via USDC x402 or prepaid API keys without managing your own DNS resolver infrastructure. Ideal for lightweight, on-demand DNS checks in automated pipelines where cost predictability matters.
Side effects
- Domain does not exist (NXDOMAIN) — ok: false with error message
- Invalid domain name format — validation error in response
- DNS timeout or upstream resolver failure — error with retry suggestion
- Rate limit or insufficient credits — 402 payment required or credit error
- Unsupported record type query — error indicating valid record types
