IPNow.online is built for speed. It runs on a custom-compiled build of nginx with no application server, scripting layer, or framework between the request and the response. When a request comes in, nginx handles it directly and returns your IP — nothing else touches it.
The interface is intentionally minimal. It is useful when you want your public IP quickly, or when you need a low-overhead endpoint for scripting.
Pure nginx
No PHP, Python, Node, or any other application layer. A custom build of nginx handles every request directly, keeping latency low and the stack simple.
Proxy Detection
The browser view shows Forwarded For and Proxy Server headers alongside your IP, giving you a quick picture of whether your connection is being routed through a proxy.
curl Access
Two simple endpoints cover the common scripting cases — your plain IP address and your user agent string — with nothing extra to parse.
Minimal Surface
No database, no framework, no runtime. Fewer dependencies mean fewer things that can go wrong, and a smaller attack surface.
API Endpoints
