WhoisXML API Earns a Spot on the Financial Times Top Fastest-Growing Companies 2024

We are proud to announce that WhoisXML API secured a position on the Financial Times esteemed list of The Americas’ Fastest-Growing Companies 2024.

The annual list is compiled by Financial Times in collaboration with Statista. In 2024, it ranked the top 500 companies in the Americas with the strongest growth in revenue between 2019 and 2022. WhoisXML API secured a spot on this list for three years in a row, climbing from 494th in 2022 to 436th in 2023 and 359th in 2024.

“Being included on the prestigious Financial Times list reflects the incredible progress we’ve made in recent years. We’ve achieved significant growth in DNS and domain data coverage to deliver market-leading cyber intelligence solutions to our customers and partners, enabling us to stay true to our commitment of making the Internet safer and more transparent,” says WhoisXML API CEO Jonathan Zhang.

More Than a Decade of Growth

Over the past 14 years, we have been aggregating and delivering comprehensive Internet intelligence to help cybersecurity and other organizations across the globe gain insights into legitimate and suspicious DNS and domain activities and behaviors. More recently, we have introduced a variety of improvements to some of our core products.

  • Newly Registered Domains (NRD 2.0) coverage increased by 89%: The WhoisXML API research and development team implemented additional ways to track more domain events faster. On average, the daily NRD files now contain up to 250,000+ newly added domains, 363,000+ newly dropped domains, 532,000+ newly updated domains, and 55,000+ newly discovered domains.
  • Premium DNS Database now covers 116 billion records: WhoisXML API is now offering its largest historical DNS repository yet, with full database files containing 365 days of passive DNS records across seven record types—A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME, and SOA.
  • Historical WHOIS intelligence expanded to include 20+ billion records: WhoisXML API’s historical WHOIS data coverage rose from 13.7 billion records in Q1 2022 to 15.6 billion in Q1 2023 to 20 billion records today, giving users across our WHOIS history product line unparalleled access to domain ownership and administration history.
  • Threat Intelligence product line additions: In 2023, Threat Intelligence API and Threat Intelligence Lookup were launched to help organizations enrich their threat detection and response capabilities. These solutions provide instant threat information about various IoC types such as domains, URLs, IP addresses, CIDR numbers, or hashes.
  • Threat Prediction Intelligence product line launch: WhoisXML API understands the value of staying on top of emerging threats, which motivated the release of the Early DGA Detection Feed and Early Warning Phishing Feed. The Early DGA Detection Feed provides access to daily lists of new domains with a high probability of being created algorithmically, while the Early Warning Phishing Feed enables users to detect risky NRDs that closely resemble those belonging to popular brands or contain popular text strings.

As WhoisXML API strives for a more secure digital world, we will continue to look for innovative ways to aggregate data and provide market-leading domain, IP, and DNS intelligence and security solutions.
