Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Lookip every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 5

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

lookup
ip_lookup_batch
Look up 1-100 IP addresses in one call. kind "lite" = country/ASN from our local dataset; kind "max" = full intelligence. Needs a free key. Example: ips=["8.8.8.8","1.1.1.1"], kind="lite".
ip_lookup_lite
Look up an IP address: country, continent, ASN and network operator. Served from our local dataset, sub-5ms. Needs a free key. Example: ip="8.8.8.8" returns US, AS15169.
ip_lookup_max
Full IP intelligence: precise geolocation, network and ASN data, VPN / proxy / Tor / hosting detection and threat data. Needs a free key. Example: ip="1.1.1.1" returns Brisbane, AU plus the privacy and hosting flags.
asn
asn_lookup
Look up an autonomous system by number: name, domain, country, and prefixCount — a sampled IPv4 /24 size proxy, NOT a count of announced routes. No key needed. Example: asn="AS15169" returns Google LLC, google.com, US.
asn_search
Search the ASN directory for a network operator. No key needed. Example: q="cloudflare", country="US" returns Cloudflare, Inc. as AS13335.

Lookip — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Lookip do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: asn_lookup, asn_search, ip_lookup_batch, ip_lookup_lite, ip_lookup_max. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is Lookip mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around lookup and asn. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Lookip working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 773 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Lookip?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Lookip need an API key?
No. Lookip completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Lookip?
It answers our handshake in 773 ms on average, which is faster than 18% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
