About IP Lookup

IP Lookup is a web page and command-line service that shows the public IP address of the device making the request. The homepage also displays request details such as the user agent, accepted language, encoding, MIME type, charset, and forwarded addresses. These values are available as plain text or JSON through simple URL paths, so the service can be used in a browser or with curl.

The directory listing describes an API for IP geolocation data. The homepage excerpt does not show geolocation output from this service. It instead refers users who need robust geolocation to IPinfo.io, so geolocation capability should not be assumed from this page alone. Pricing is unknown.
