About facha

Facha.Dev API is a free generic API developed and maintained by an individual developer. It is documented at api.facha.dev, versioned (current version v1), and includes rate limiting on certain endpoints using a fixed-window algorithm, with rate limit status communicated via response headers.

The API provides several distinct data services: checking whether an email domain is used for temporary/disposable emails (sourced from the developer's GitHub repository); IP information lookups including location, ASN, and IP type; an aircraft database and live radar service (sourced from the developer's own database and VRS Radar Server) supporting lookups by ICAO hex code, registration number, squawk code, operator, callsign, aircraft type, or geographic range, including dedicated endpoints for emergency squawks and military/NATO air policing aircraft; live ship tracking by MMSI, IMO number, callsign, name, destination, or geographic radius; and an early-beta package/mail parcel tracking endpoint.

The API is aimed at developers needing access to aviation, maritime, IP, or disposable-email-detection data without cost. Support is available via the developer's contact email listed on facha.dev or through LinkedIn.
