Seattle, WA, 6th May — IPinfo, the internet data company, today announced the launch of IPinfo Lite, a new data product delivering free, enterprise-grade, country-level IP geolocation and ASN data. With daily updates, no usage limits, and uncompromised accuracy, IPinfo Lite sets a new standard for free product offerings in IP address intelligence.


Unlike other providers who offer lower quality data and restrict usage in their free offerings, IPinfo Lite offers commercial rights and the same highly accurate and rigorously validated IP data that is trusted by its paying customers.


“We created IPinfo Lite to bring high-quality country and ASN data to everyone – developers, startups, and enterprises alike – so they can build and scale faster, without compromise,” said Ben Dowling, founder and CEO of IPinfo. “This isn’t just a stripped-down version of our core product. It’s a standalone, mission-critical product that supports our commitment to setting a new standard in IP data excellence.”


Key Features of IPinfo Lite:

  • Truly unlimited usage without throttling, quotas, or hidden limits
  • Daily data refreshes to keep pace with IP address changes
  • Accurate country-level geolocation and ASN data verified by IPinfo’s proprietary global Probe Network of more than 900 servers
  • Full protocol support of both IPv4 and IPv6
  • Flexible ingestion via API or downloadable database (in CSV, JSON, MMDB, and Parquet)
  • Available directly via IPinfo or on Snowflake Marketplace for seamless data integration
  • Permitted commercial use with attribution under Creative Commons


Primary Use Cases:

  • Security and compliance: Implement country-level restrictions, enhance firewall configurations, and meet regulatory requirements
  • Threat intelligence: Enrich security monitoring platforms with unlimited IP data for comprehensive incident response
  • Fraud prevention: Combat fraud with country and ASN validation across financial services, ecommerce, and digital advertising
