IPinfo Max
Every flagged IP is directly observed operating as a proxy exit, confirmed by behavior rather than an ASN or hostname guess. Max bundles geolocation, privacy detection, residential proxy, carrier, and connection context in one API. Sign up and start querying the same day.
Self-serve from day one
Sign up, generate a token, and start detecting. No minimum contract, no procurement queue, no demo gate.
Named proxy providers
See the specific provider behind an IP, like 711Proxy or ProxyScrape, instead of an anonymous flag, with coverage deep into the long tail.
Recency and frequency
last_seen and percent_days_seen show how recently and how consistently an IP acted as a proxy.
Why Choose IPinfo Max?
Every IP in our residential proxy dataset was directly observed operating inside a proxy network. Membership rests on observed behavior alone: if it's in the dataset, we saw it act as a proxy exit. That is what makes it a signal you can automate on.
Observed in the act
Every IP was seen acting as a residential proxy exit, held to a strict definition of genuinely residential, with mobile and datacenter sub-segments broken out per provider.
Behavior over time
An IP seen once three months ago and one active every day carry very different risk. last_seen and percent_days_seen ship with every IP so you can tell them apart.
Provider attribution
Each IP is tied to the operator running it, with mobile and datacenter pools flagged, so you can weigh a residential exit differently from the same operator's datacenter traffic.

Unrivaled data accuracy
Verified IP Accuracy. Not Estimates.
Most IP providers stop at noisy Whois and geofeeds. IPinfo goes further. We don’t just collect IP data — we verify it, validate it, and engineer it for developers.
They guess. We measure. And that makes all the difference.
Step 1: Collect & Clean
Like most IP data companies, we aggregate raw IP data from multiple sources as a starting point.
Step 2: Learn
Our proprietary algorithms then score and filter 20TB+ of IP data daily to measure accuracy and confidence.
Step 3: ProbeNet Ground Truth
1000+ live PoP’s map IPs around the world in real time, delivering unmatched ground-truth accuracy.
Step 4: Validate
A custom hint engine runs 400B+ weekly checks to verify and confirm every signal for total accuracy.
Step 5: Continual Updates
IP’s change continually… so our data refreshes daily to keep every lookup accurate, stable, and production-ready.

Your Questions, Answered
- What is a residential proxy?A residential proxy routes traffic through a real IP address assigned by an ISP (Internet Service Provider), often a home connection. Because the IP looks like an ordinary user, it gets past detection built only for VPNs, hosting ranges, and datacenter proxies.
- How is Max different from Privacy Detection?Privacy Detection covers VPNs, Tor, public proxies, and relays. Max is a separate dataset built specifically for residential proxies, which are the hardest of the group to catch.
- What does percent_days_seen tell me?It's the share of recent days an IP was observed acting as a residential proxy. Pair it with last_seen to judge whether a sighting is fresh and persistent or stale and occasional.
- How quickly can I start?Same day. You sign up, upgrade to Max, and start querying straight away.
- Can I get the data as a database download?The API is the fastest way to start. Talk to us about database access for higher-volume, offline-matching needs.
- How fresh is the data?The dataset refreshes every 24 hours, so a node that goes quiet drops out of recent activity quickly.
