Tools it offers

14 tools, as the server itself reported during our check on Oct 31, 2026.

  • validate_targetFree. Check that a domain or URL is well-formed and get the normalized hostname, before calling a paid check. Offline: no network request, no payment. Rejects IP addresses, single-label names and URLs with credentials.
  • pricingFree. Return the price of every paid tool, the payment network (Base) and the receiving address, so you can budget before calling. No input, no network request, no payment.
  • check_certCheck the TLS certificate of one hostname: issuer, validity dates, days left, % of lifetime used, renewal cadence and a renewal-stall flag, plus a live HTTPS pass/fail probe. Use it when you only need certificate health;
  • check_dnsLook up the live DNS of a domain: NS, A/AAAA/CNAME, MX, SPF, DMARC, CAA (climbing to the parent zone) and DNSSEC status, with plain-English findings. Use it for a DNS inventory or to debug resolution; use check_email_aut
  • check_domain_expiryCheck when a domain registration expires: registrar, registered and expiry dates, days left, EPP status codes and nameservers, from the registry's RDAP server. Use it for renewal risk on the registered domain (not the ce
  • site_healthRun check_cert, check_dns and check_domain_expiry together and return their raw results plus a short summary, the renewal-stall flag and the Let's Encrypt 64-day certificate note (from 2027-02-10). Use it for a full data
  • check_email_authReview the email authentication setup of a domain: SPF validity and DNS-lookup count (limit 10), DMARC policy, pct and reporting, DKIM on common selector names, MTA-STS mode, TLS-RPT and BIMI, with a rough 0-100 score an
  • check_security_headersCheck the HTTP security headers of a website with one live HTTPS GET: redirect chain (up to 5 hops), final status, HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy and COOP, with a
  • domain_gradeGrade a domain's security posture A-F in one call, for vendor-risk or due-diligence checks. Runs the TLS, DNS (DNSSEC, CAA), registration-expiry, email-auth and HTTP-header checks and returns one letter, a 0-100 score, p
  • full_site_auditFull site audit report for one domain, for client reports, vendor reviews or a pre-launch check. Runs every check (TLS from CT logs + live probe, DNS/DNSSEC/CAA, registration expiry and transfer lock, SPF/DMARC/DKIM/MTA-
  • threat_checkIs this domain known-bad? Resolves the hostname (A/AAAA), matches the name, its parent domains and resolved IPv4 against ThreatCluster's high-confidence 30-day IOC feed (cached, refreshed about hourly), and looks up rans
  • bulk_threat_checkCheck up to 100 domains or IPv4 addresses at once against ThreatCluster's high-confidence 30-day IOC feed; each domain is resolved and its IPv4 matched too. IOC only (no ransomware-claim lookups; use threat_check for one
  • expiry_batchCertificate and domain-registration expiry for 2 to 5 domains in one call: days left, expiry dates and an ok/warn/expired status per domain, plus the soonest date overall. Certificate dates come from CT logs, registratio
