Do you need an account

An API key from the service settings is required

Tells your agent whether a number is safe to call or text right now. Live reads of the U.S. and Canadian phone networks — carrier of record, line type, LRN, CNAM caller ID, spam/scam reputation, SMS deliverability, and a TCPA 8 a.m.–9 p.m. calling-window verdict — plus bulk lookups. Every query gets a fresh dip, never stale cached data. Free sandbox key, no card required. Pay per lookup with no minimums.
