In their words
Their pitchOur Whois API allows users to query domain or IP address ownership information, including the owner's details, domain status, and key dates like creation and expiration. [...] We ensure a consistently parsed output across all TLDs, eliminating the need to check whether a registrar uses WHOIS or RDAP [...]
