Why IPstack MCP

Everything your AI assistant needs to reason about the network around it.

City-Level Accuracy

Geolocate any IPv4 or IPv6 address down to the city, including latitude, longitude, and timezone.

Real-Time Lookups

Low-latency responses from IPstack’s global edge. No batching delays, no cold starts.

Multi-tool Support

Works with VS Code Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, Cline, and more out of the box.

Threat Intelligence

Detect proxies, VPNs, Tor exit nodes, and known threat actors directly from your AI workflow.

ASN and Connection Data

Get ISP, ASN, connection type, and carrier metadata for richer network-aware reasoning.

Bulk and Batch Lookups

Resolve up to 50 IPs in a single call. Perfect for log analysis and security audits via your AI.

Set up in Seconds

Choose your coding tool and follow the steps. That's it.
