Most businesses and security teams need domain information — but WHOIS lookups are either slow, outdated, or behind paywalls.
I built Domain WHOIS API — instant access to registration data, expiry dates, nameservers, and IP addresses for any domain.
What it does
Single endpoint: POST /whois
Returns:
- Registrar name
- Creation date
- Expiration date (+ days until expiry)
- Last updated date
- Domain status
- Nameservers
- Country
- IP address
Quick start
Python
import requests
url = "https://domain-whois-lookup.p.rapidapi.com/whois"
headers = {
"X-RapidAPI-Key": "YOUR_KEY",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
payload = {"domain": "github.com"}
r = requests.post(url, json=payload, headers=headers)
print(r.json())
Use cases
- Domain monitoring — track expiry dates
- Brand protection — monitor competitors
- Security — identify ownership and registrars
- Lead research — extract contact info
- Infrastructure mapping — discover nameservers
