Why Use Our Domain Lookup Tool?

The most comprehensive and accurate domain categorization lookup available, completely free.

100 Million Domains

Our database covers the vast majority of active domains on the internet, with continuous crawling and re-classification to keep data fresh. Schools use this lookup to verify educational resources before approving them through our web filtering solution for schools and educational institutions.

AI-Powered Classification

Machine learning models analyze page content, metadata, link structure, and behavioral signals to assign accurate categories to every domain.

Multi-Category Support

Domains can belong to multiple categories simultaneously. A news site covering technology will show both News and Technology tags.

Real-Time Updates

Categories are continuously updated as websites evolve. Historical categorization changes are tracked for compliance and audit purposes.

API Access Available

Integrate domain lookup directly into your applications with our REST API. Process up to 1,000 lookups per second with sub-50ms response times, or run bulk domain lookups for entire lists in a single request.

content classification

Beyond categories, our lookup reveals safety ratings, content risk indicators, and reputation scores to help protect your network and users.
