Capabilities

Everything you need.
Nothing you don’t.

  1. 01

    Private by design

    No ads and no trackers. Tools run on your own server, and private keys are blocked in the browser before anything is sent.

  2. 02

    Real DNS, from everywhere

    Lookups go to public resolvers across five regions, so you see what the rest of the world sees, not just one cache.

  3. 03

    Production-ready

    Rate limits, input checks, signed-in admin access and plain-English errors, built in from day one.

  4. 04

    Fast on every screen

    Mobile-first layouts, instant search and keyboard shortcuts. It works the same on a phone as on a desktop.

How it works

Three steps.
Straight to the answer.

Coverage

Seen from
everywhere.

DNS changes don’t reach everyone at once. Propagation checks ask resolvers across the world at the same time, so you know when a change is really live.
