About

The API accepts an IP address and checks if it belongs to known search engine bots (like Google, Bing, Yandex), malicious bots, or parasitic bots. Using an hourly updated IP database, it performs reverse DNS lookups (PTR), identifies Autonomous System Numbers (ASN), and detects hosting information. The response indicates if the IP is a bot and returns the bot’s name if detected, in plain text or JSON format
