What this API helps you ship
Use this page as a production brief: endpoints, examples, response shape, and the workflow pieces needed to plug DomScan into your own product.
Embed domain checks, DNS intelligence, risk signals, or enrichment into onboarding, search, and internal tools.
Replace repeated manual lookups with scheduled jobs, alerting, and reproducible investigation steps.
Use predictable fields, documented status codes, and credit costs instead of scraping provider pages.
Feed agents, dashboards, SOAR playbooks, and CRMs through OpenAPI, SDK, Postman, or MCP.
Integration workflow
A simple path from first request to repeatable production usage.
Authenticate once
Send your API key with the documented header and keep requests consistent across services.
Query with examples
Start from the curl and HTTP samples, then map the parameters into your application code.
Operate and monitor
Use status codes, credit costs, and response fields to build retries, logs, and alerts.
Developer kit
Jump from this page into machine-readable docs, request collections, SDKs, or agent tooling.
OpenAPI schema
Generate clients or inspect every request and response shape.
Postman collectionImport ready-made requests for manual testing and team handoff.
SDKs and CLIUse maintained packages and command-line workflows instead of writing boilerplate.
MCP integrationExpose domain intelligence to AI agents and internal assistant workflows.
Parameters and response map
Scan the inputs, output fields, and status codes before wiring the endpoint into your client.

}Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are these domain valuations?
Our valuations are algorithmic estimates based on domain characteristics, not actual sales data. Actual market value depends on buyer demand, comparable sales, and negotiation. Use these as a starting point, not a definitive price.
What factors affect domain value?
Key factors include: domain length (shorter = more valuable), TLD tier (.com is premium), dictionary words, brandability, pronounceability, presence of hyphens/numbers, and pattern recognition (like CVCV patterns).
Do you use historical sales data?
No, our current algorithm uses intrinsic domain characteristics only. We may add comparable sales data in the future to improve accuracy.
Can I valuate multiple domains at once?
Yes! Use the POST /v1/value/bulk endpoint with an array of domains to valuate up to 100 domains in a single request.
