IpForensics covers about 99.99% of all available IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in use.
However, you should note that some IP addresses are simply not locatable (e.g. 192.168.0.1 is a private IP address that is not routable on the public Internet and has no meaning outside of a private/local network). As a consequence, not every IP address has response fields value set.
More generally, this applies to all known reserved IP addresses (i.e. loopback, link-local, multicast, private, site-local or wildcard). Such IP addresses do not make sense in a geolocation context. Besides, there exist anycast IP addresses that route content based on where the requester is located (e.g. 1.1.1.1). As a result, such IP addresses will have low confidence accuracy. This limitation applies to any IP geolocation service provider.

IpForensics datasets are crafted using multiple sources and unique AI algorithms.
We collect, parse, analyze, classify and correlate hundreds of Gigabytes of data every day
from several partners and public sources.
This includes network and routing information such as snapshots of BGP tables, data from Regional Internet Registry (RIR) databases, ISP data, data sharing agreements, geofeeds, latency-based tracking information, and corrections we receive!

There is no monthly fee or monthly subscription and no commitment with our standard offering.
You can stop paying at any time. Requests to our API will fail when you run
out of tokens. Note we provide an option from our dashboard to delete your account and data.
Although we detect and apply changes continuously,
it does not make sense to refresh all data at the same pace from a
technical point of view. Our best in class algorithms and infrastructure allow
us to guarantee that all IP geolocation data are refreshed at least once per day.
Regarding threat/security data, updates are performed in average every 15 minutes. This way you get fresh results and false positives are reduced to their minimum.
