Every address a BitTorrent client runs on.

Each IPv4 and IPv6 address where a BitTorrent client was seen in the last 90 days, marked verified where a client there answered directly or several others reported it. With the days it was seen, the ports its clients used and the most on one day, which marks a VPN exit or a carrier's NAT, and the codes the clients identify themselves by. Rebuilt daily.

Downloading it from code.

Database API reference →

One call gets you the current BitTorrent IP build. Every official client wraps it three ways: straight to disk, a time-limited link you hand to your own runner, or bytes in memory, and checksums() returns the published digests to verify it against.

download()
Streams the current build to a file, which lands only once the whole transfer has arrived, so a failed one never leaves a truncated file behind.
downloadUrl()
The time-limited link the API redirects to, for your own downloader, a job runner or a CDN pull.
downloadBytes()
The build in memory, for a small database or a pipeline that never touches a filesystem.
metadata()
Row count, file sizes and when the build last updated. Poll it and fetch only when a new one has landed.
checksums()
The md5, sha1, sha256 and sha512 digests of one file, to verify it once it lands.
import os
from internetdata import InternetData
client = InternetData(os.environ["INTERNETDATA_API_KEY"])
# what is in today's build, without moving the file
meta = client.database.metadata("bittorrent_ip_v1")
client.database.download("bittorrent_ip_v1", "csvgz", "./bittorrent_ip_v1.csv.gz")
sums = client.database.checksums("bittorrent_ip_v1", "csvgz")
print(meta.updated, meta.entries, sums["sha256"])
load.pypip install internetdata
Also available for .NET, Ruby, Rust, Swift, Erlang, Perl and Zig. See all on GitHub →

Getting your hands on it.

Teams join BitTorrent IP against traffic they already log, inside their own infrastructure, and never send an address anywhere to get an answer.

Shared-exit detection

Many clients at one address on one day is a VPN exit, a proxy or a carrier's NAT: read it from peak_num_ports and weight that traffic as you would a VPN's.

Network policy

Find the addresses in your own ranges, or a customer's, that run BitTorrent clients, before a peer-to-peer policy is enforced on them.

Seedbox and server mapping

Join the file to Hosting IP to find the clients running in datacenter space, the seedboxes and VPN servers among them.

License the full database
Sales will quote on volume, term and whether you need redistribution rights.
Checksums published per file: md5, sha1, sha256 and sha512.
The id fixes the schema, so a new build never changes the columns your parser reads.
Samples are cut from the current build, not a synthetic extract.

An official client for every major language.

All SDKs on GitHub →

Twelve official clients for the languages you ship in, each wrapping the database endpoints: list what you're licensed for, poll a build, follow the download redirect and verify what landed. Install commands are in the docs.

What does verified mean?

A client at the address answered directly, or two or more other clients reported it at the same time. An address only one client reported stays in the file with verified false: most are clients behind NAT, which can't be reached from outside, so filter on verified for the strictest list.

00 · Evaluate

Test the real build first.

An evaluation license puts a full current build in your hands, with no sampling, so you can measure it against your own traffic before anyone talks about terms.
