AI Analysis

●MidCozyNiche Gem

Yet another IP lookup extension, but right-click context menu is handy.

Strengths
  • •Right-click context menu on IPs and domains speeds up workflow.
  • •Lazy-loads only when opened, avoiding unnecessary background permissions.
Weaknesses
  • •Entirely wraps ipaddress.to; no unique data sources or analysis.
  • •Zero ratings on Chrome Web Store suggests minimal real-world usage.
Target Audience

Security researchers and sysadmins doing quick IP lookups

Post Description

I made a really simple tool that let's you lookup the DNS, WhoIs and IP of the site that you're visiting. It also let's you highlight IPs on websites, right-click and do lookups in context windows as well.

Hope it helps out other devs as much as it helps me on a daily basis:

The extension uses https://ipaddress.to
