WhoisXML API Launches New and Improved Website Categorization Products

WhoisXML API is thrilled to introduce a new version of Website Categorization API and Website Categorization Database. The product line now offers an enhanced website categorization model with additional context and is powered by advanced artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, offering overall better stability and accuracy.

The website categorization products can classify websites into 83 categories, allowing more precise and hyper-targeted website categorization. The API results and database files continue to show the confidence score for each category and a website’s country code for transparency and geographical context.

Specific improvements to the website categorization products include:

– New output fields: A website’s domain creation date from its WHOIS record and its Autonomous System (AS) details from its IP address, including its AS number, domain, name, route, and type.

– Granular categories: The new version includes categories like Malware Sites, Gambling, Spam URLs, and 80 other more targeted website categories.
