How this service works
WHOIS lookup with IANA referral follow. GET /whois?domain=example.com → registrar whois text as JSON. Live registry data.
Output
Returns the full registrar WHOIS text for the queried domain as a JSON object, sourced live from the relevant registry by following IANA referrals. Includes registration dates, expiry, registrar name, nameservers, and registrant details where available.
Example use cases
Verify domain ownership before acquisition
“I'm thinking about buying the domain techstartup.io - can you look up the WHOIS record and tell me who currently owns it and when their registration expires?”
Monitor competitor domain registration details
“Pull the WHOIS data for our top 3 competitors' main domains and summarize who the registrars are and when each domain is set to renew.”
Check domain status for partnership verification
“We're about to partner with a company using brandname.co - can you look up the WHOIS record to confirm the registrant details match their official documentation?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://aniccanomac-mini-1.tail7a0ba4.ts.net:10000/whoisWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need live, authoritative WHOIS data for a domain, including registrar details, registration/expiry dates, and nameservers. Prefer this over DNS lookup endpoints when you need ownership and registration metadata rather than DNS records. The IANA referral follow ensures you get the most accurate registrar-level data rather than just the TLD registry response.
Side effects
- Domain not found or not registered — WHOIS returns empty or NXDOMAIN-equivalent response
- Rate limiting by upstream WHOIS registry — may return error or empty data
- Invalid domain format provided — likely returns a 400 or error JSON
- Upstream IANA or registrar WHOIS server unavailable — timeout or connection error
- Private/redacted WHOIS records (GDPR) — minimal registrant info returned
