Veriphone vs VeriRoute Intel

Veriphone validates phone numbers and returns carrier, line type (mobile/fixed/VoIP), and formatted output for 243 countries, either via a single lookup or bulk CSV upload. Its own docs state "CORS is enabled on all endpoints," and a live OPTIONS preflight plus an unauthenticated GET against api.veriphone.io/v3/verify both returned Access-Control-Allow-Origin echoing the request Origin, reconfirming cors "yes"; the GET also returned a 400 JSON error demanding the key parameter, reconfirming auth "API Key" over HTTPS. Its pricing page offers 1,000 free validations/month with no credit card required, alongside one-time credit packs and monthly subscription tiers — freemium.

VeriRoute Intel is a live phone-intelligence platform offering CNAM caller-ID lookup, LRN/carrier routing lookup, message-provider identification, and spam/fraud scoring for North American numbers, served from verirouteintel.com/api/v1/<service>. A live OPTIONS preflight against its real API host carried no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header at all, resolving the stored "unknown" cors to "no"; a follow-up unauthenticated GET returned a 401 "API key required" JSON error over HTTPS, confirming auth "API Key" and https true. Its pricing page is strictly pay-as-you-go per query (from $0.0005/lookup) with a free sandbox and no subscription requirement — metered.
