About
In 2009 ipstack started out under a different name, freegeoip.net, as a community funded open-source project offering an API for software developers to search the geolocation of IP addresses. Through waves of positive feedback from a steadily growing user base and many years of advanced development and optimisation it became clear that the (once) side-project had exactly what it takes to go to market as a competitive player in the IP to location API and database service field. Fast forward 8 years, freegeoip.net was rebuilt completely into a fully-fledged IP geolocation platform and relaunched as ipstack.com, which is now one of the leading providers of its kind with over 100.000 satisfied customers.
