Whoxy vs WhoisXML

Both give you WHOIS, history, and reverse lookups. Whoxy is the lean, affordable record source. WhoisXML is the broader data company with more product lines.

Whoxy and WhoisXML are both integrated on SearchIn, so this is less a contest than a guide to which to run first. Whoxy is a focused WHOIS, history, and reverse-WHOIS provider with straightforward records. WhoisXML offers WHOIS alongside a wide product family including DNS, IP, and domain research tools, with its own history and reverse datasets. On SearchIn you can run both on a domain and compare the records side by side.

Run Whoxy first for a quick WHOIS and reverse lookup. Add WhoisXML when you want a second history dataset, IP lookups, or email and name reverse searches with a different index.

FAQ

Whoxy vs WhoisXML, answered

Do I need both?

For a quick check, one is enough. For an investigation where registrant history matters, two independent indexes catch what one missed and show where records disagree.

Which is cheaper on SearchIn?

Prices by input type are on each integration page and on pricing. Both are low per lookup; running both on a domain is still well under a dollar.
