Geocoding — entry 043 of 80
ipapi.co
ipapi.co geolocates an IP address and returns the result as JSON, XML, or YAML without requiring an API key for light use, though the no-key path is rate-limited and marketed by the vendor as a free trial rather than a permanent free tier. Paid subscriptions start at $15/month (or $12/month billed annually) for 60,000 lookups/month, scaling up to $399/month for 15 million/month.
