Why build your own IP Domain Country Flag alternative

• No third party logging every website domain you visit

• Customize what info displays in the badge (e.g., latency, ASN, ISP)
• Add one-click WHOIS, SSL check, or DNS record lookups directly in the popup

What it costs vs what you'd save

The starter prompt

Create a Chrome extension that detects the domain of the active tab and looks up its server IP and geolocation using a free IP API. Update the extension badge or icon to show the server's country flag. When clicked, open a popup showing the IP address, country, city, region, ISP/hosting provider, and WHOIS details, with local caching to minimize API requests.
