Domain Intelligence: Age, WHOIS, DNS & Wayback

Check any list of domains in one run and get a full report for each: domain age and registration date, registrar, expiry date and status (RDAP, the official successor to WHOIS), name servers and DNS records, email provider (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and others), SPF and DMARC policy, the first and last Wayback Machine capture, the website's HTTP status, final URL, title and description, and the SSL certificate issuer and expiry. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel.

Every value comes from official, public sources: the domain registries' RDAP servers, DNS, the Internet Archive and the website itself. No login, no browser, no proxies.

What can this domain checker do?

• 📅 Domain age and WHOIS data: registration date, age in years, last change, expiry date and days left, registrar and its IANA ID, registry status codes and DNSSEC.
• 🌐 DNS records: IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, name servers, MX hosts and all TXT records (site verifications included).
• ✉️ Email setup: which email provider the domain uses, whether SPF is published, and the DMARC policy (none, quarantine or reject).
• 🕰️ Wayback Machine history: first and most recent capture, with links to both. A first capture years before the registration date usually means the domain had an earlier owner.
• 🔒 Website and SSL: HTTP status, where the home page redirects to, page title and meta description, and the SSL certificate issuer, expiry and days left.
• 📋 Paste anything: domains, website URLs or email addresses. Each is reduced to its domain (https://www.apify.com/store → apify.com, info@ycombinator.com → ycombinator.com) and duplicates are checked once.
• 🆓 Invalid entries are free. You pay per domain report.

Who uses it?

• SEO and domain investors checking domain age, history and expiry before buying expired or aged domains.
• Sales and lead-generation teams enriching company lists with email provider, website status and company age.
• Fraud, trust and security teams flagging newly registered domains, missing DMARC, expiring certificates and parked sites.
• IT and agencies auditing a portfolio of client domains for expiry dates, DNS and SSL.

How to check domains

1. Add Domains, one per line (URLs and email addresses work too).
2. Optionally switch off sections you don't need (DNS, Wayback, website) for faster runs.
3. Click Start and download the results.

A domain that isn't registered comes back with "registered": false and empty fields, which is also how you check whether a name is available.

Use it from AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor)

AI assistants can run this Actor as a tool through Apify's MCP server. Add this server URL to any MCP client:

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=rsiddiq95/domain-intelligence

Then just ask, for example: "How old are these 20 domains, who are they registered with, and which ones have no DMARC policy?" Agent runs cost the same per domain as runs from the console.

How much does it cost?

Pay per domain report. See the Pricing tab. Invalid entries are free. A domain takes a few seconds; 1,000 domains take roughly 15 to 30 minutes with all sections on. The Wayback Machine is the slowest source, so switch it off when you don't need archive dates.

Limitations

• Some country registries don't publish registration data over RDAP (for example .io, .so, .es and several others). For those, registration date, registrar and expiry are empty and the row says so in notes; DNS, email, Wayback and website data still work.
• Many registries hide the owner's name and contact details for privacy, so they aren't included.
• Subdomains are reduced to their registrable domain (news.bbc.co.uk → bbc.co.uk).
• Website title and SSL come from the home page as served to a normal visitor. Sites that block automated visits may show a 403 status.

FAQ

Is this WHOIS? RDAP is the official, structured replacement for WHOIS, run by the same registries, and it is what ICANN now requires for generic domains like .com, .net and .org.
