Know if a number is real — and reachable.
Send a phone number in any format. Get formatting, country, carrier and line type, VoIP and burner flags, plus a live network check that tells you whether the number is actually active right now.
What you can do with it
- 1
Validate before you send an SMS
Confirm a number is well-formed, valid for its country and currently active — so you stop burning OTP spend on dead or fake numbers.
- 2
Flag VoIP and burner numbers
Catch disposable and VoIP numbers used in fraud and bonus abuse, with a daily-refreshed burner-prefix list behind a single flag.
- 3
Confirm live reachability
A live network lookup returns whether the number is connected, its carrier, and porting and roaming status — the strongest "real person" signal on a phone.
- 4
Normalize and enrich at scale
E.164, local and international formatting plus country and region metadata clean and standardize numbers across your whole dataset.
Pick your volume. All fields included.
Drag to your monthly volume — your plan selects itself. Live connectivity ships on every paid plan.
