IPASIS vs Florida Man: common questions
Which is more reliable, IPASIS or Florida Man?
Only Florida Man is on our probe schedule so far (—% uptime over 90 days). The other is catalogued but not yet live-checked, so we can't compare measured reliability head-to-head — check the uncovered API's own status page for now.
Do IPASIS and Florida Man need an API key?
Florida Man needs no key, while IPASIS requires a free API key. If you want to start calling without signup, reach for Florida Man first.
Can I call IPASIS and Florida Man from the browser?
Only Florida Man is browser-friendly — it returns CORS headers over HTTPS. IPASIS needs a server-side call or proxy, so factor that into which one fits a front-end project.
Are IPASIS and Florida Man free for commercial use?
IPASIS has unclear commercial terms, and Florida Man allows commercial use on its free tier. We track service terms and the data license as separate fields — see the Commercial use and Data license rows above, and confirm both before shipping either in a paid product.
