wtfis is a Python command-line tool that performs passive lookups of hostnames, domains, and IP addresses using OSINT services like VirusTotal, Shodan, AbuseIPDB, and Greynoise. It presents results in a human-readable format and minimizes API calls to stay within free-tier quotas.

Use cases

  • look up who owns a domain from the terminal
  • check if an IP address is malicious
  • get whois and reputation info for a hostname
  • investigate suspicious domains during incident response
  • geolocate an IP address and find its ASN
  • check domain resolutions and analysis stats from VirusTotal

When to choose

  • you want readable OSINT lookup results designed for humans rather than scripts
  • you rely on free-tier API accounts and need to conserve quota
  • you want a single tool aggregating multiple threat intel sources
  • you need quick passive reconnaissance from the command line

When to avoid

  • you need fully automated, high-volume programmatic lookups
  • you require active scanning or deep Shodan-style port data without a paid Shodan key
  • you need a GUI or web interface
