Real-time number reputation for aggregators, telecom operators, contact centres, and app teams. Screen any number for risk, line type, and carrier before you dial or send — verdicts in about 25 milliseconds. Part of BroadNet's number-intelligence stack, alongside HLR Lookup.
Broad coverage. No batch staleness. No third-party tax in the call path.
The cost of carrying spam traffic compounds silently. Until it doesn't.
One bad campaign flags every DID in your range. Downstream traffic gets throttled or blocked.
One agent dialing dead numbers all morning burns a day of payroll on disconnected lines.
One spam complaint from a regulator escalates into a multi-month enforcement headache.
One signup bot ring burns through your verification SMS budget and your trial conversion.
Most of this is preventable at the source. Screen each number before you dial or send it, and the risk is caught upstream — where handling it is cheap and routine. BroadNet Phone Reputation is the API call that stops this from ever starting.
Broad coverage. No batch staleness. No third-party tax in the call path. Figures on this page are illustrative of the BroadNet number-reputation infrastructure.
Worldwide. No regional gaps. Refreshed continuously.
Invisible to your dialer. Invisible to your caller.
Cached repeats are free — they don't decrement credits.
Continuously monitored. Regional failover on premium tiers.
One HTTPS round-trip from your application to the regional edge, into the reputation engine, through your account threshold, and back — with the verdict logged for compliance and reporting.
REST call, batch endpoint, or pre-flight check from your dialer. Bearer-token auth, no SDK required.
Auth, schema validation, rate-limit check at the closest BroadNet PoP. Cache hit returns here.
Multi-source signal correlation, country-aware threshold, confidence scoring, category assignment.
Your account threshold + category-specific overrides applied. You set the line; we deliver the truth.
Verdict + category + confidence + country + observed latency. Logged for compliance and reporting.

Spam-rate KPIs at the carrier level are the existential threat to every operator and aggregator. Filter outbound traffic upstream and your downstream reputation stays clean. We make that automatic.
Your business doesn't stop at borders. Neither does our coverage. 390 million+ phone numbers globally, refreshed every day. US, EMEA, APAC, LATAM, Africa — wherever your traffic moves, we score it.
25 milliseconds typical. 3 milliseconds cached. Invisible to your dialer, invisible to your caller. We never become the reason a call took a beat longer.
Batch endpoints score thousands of numbers in one request. Volume tiers extend to hundreds of millions of checks per month. On-prem deployment for data-residency requirements. Built by the people who run dialers and signalling networks for a living.
The four things every operator, aggregator, and contact-centre director asks before signing — answered before the demo.
We hold our own SMPP and SS7 binds with destination operators in 86 countries, and every other route is a labelled partner route. No grey routes, no surprise re-routing, no opaque price markups in the middle.
Operating since 2003, headquartered in Dubai. We carry 300M+ application-to-person messages a day for banks, governments, airlines, and the platforms that power the modern internet.
Local presence across the Middle East and North Africa, plus pan-African, South Asian, and South-East Asian operator relationships that make global rollouts feel like a single market.
ISO 27001 / 9001 / 22301, SOC 2 Type II, GSMA Associate Member, HIPAA-aligned, GDPR-aligned. Sender-ID registrations handled by an in-region compliance team in every regulated market.
Every flagged number you screen out is a downstream complaint you never receive — and a route you keep alive. Aggregators win on deliverability and complaint rate. We move both metrics in the right direction.
Talk to aggregator salesYour DID inventory is your business. One bad campaign flagged across your range and you are scrambling. We sit upstream of every outbound attempt and refuse the calls that would compromise your numbers.
Talk to telecom salesYour agents are your most expensive resource. We make sure their time goes only to prospects worth dialing. Skip the disconnected. Skip the fraud-flagged. Skip the do-not-calls.
See the ROI framingBought a list? Inherited one? Run it through us first. We tell you what is worth dialing and what is a money-pit. No more guessing whether a contact list is salvageable.
Upload a list — spam-rate report freeSpam bots, fraud rings, disposable-number abuse — gone before they ever hit your verification flow. We screen at signup; you screen out the costs.
Request test accessEvery outbound attempt timestamped, scored, and logged. Built-in audit trail. On-prem deployment for data-residency requirements. SOC 2 Type II, GDPR-aligned by design.
Schedule compliance briefingPOST /sms/lookup takes the number as a query parameter and returns HTTP 200 with the number's current HLR / MNP status. The OpenAPI spec defines the request but no response schema, so read the body as data rather than hard-coding field names.
The number shown is reserved for documentation use (Ofcom +44 7700 900). The spec documents the status codes for this call, not the fields of a successful response.

}Agent talk-time uplift × hourly cost. Teams recover the dial productivity they were losing to dead and flagged lines (illustrative; results vary).
Carrier complaints prevented × cost per complaint. Reputation defended at the route, not after.
Fraud signups prevented × LTV impact. Stop the bot trial before it burns the verification SMS.
DID ranges saved × replacement cost. Spam-flag enforcement averted, attestation tier preserved.

Reputation infrastructure audited and certified — regulator-recognised across MENA, Africa, and Asia.
All API traffic over TLS 1.3 with modern cipher suites. Bearer-token auth, scoped keys, rotation.
Phone number in, verdict out. No caller identity, no contents, no recordings — by design.
Every check logged with timestamp + verdict + latency. Exportable to your SIEM or BI tool.
DPA on every contract. EU-only routing on request. Right-to-erasure tooling exposed via API.
Same API in your data centre or sovereign cloud. Common for carriers and regulated industries.
If the service ever degrades, your dialer can default to dial-as-before. Safety first, by design.
EU, GCC, and APAC processing regions available on enterprise tier. Pin a region in your contract.
Every async event is posted to the webhook you register.
No. We respond in around 25 milliseconds — faster than any handshake to your downstream carrier. Calls still ring within the user's expectation window. Premium tiers ship with a regional failover endpoint so a network blip never blocks a call.
No. We only flag numbers with strong, multi-source evidence of abuse. Single weak signals never trigger a block. You set the confidence threshold; you keep control.
Build with a fail-open default and the worst case is you dial like you did before. Premium tiers include regional redundancy, fail-over endpoints, and uptime SLAs with service credits for breach.
Continuously refreshed. New threats are indexed every day. No batch staleness, no monthly CSV downloads, no waiting until the next quarter. Cached repeats are served from the regional edge in around 3 milliseconds.
Yes, on enterprise tier. Same API, your hardware, your data never leaves your network. Common for carriers and regulated industries that need data residency or sovereign deployment.
If it can make an HTTPS request, it integrates. Pre-built recipes for the major dialer platforms, CRMs, automation tools, and carrier signalling stacks ship in the developer docs.
Yes. We hold reputation signals — not personal data about callers or callees. The API surface is a phone number in, a verdict out. No PII is stored, no recordings, no contents. DPA is included on every contract.
No. We sit in front of your stack, not in place of it. Drop in, drop out. No contracts with your carriers required. You keep your routes, your DIDs, your relationships — we just keep them clean.
Repeat checks on the same number within the freshness window don't decrement your credits. We respond from the regional edge in around 3 milliseconds and don't bill the verdict.
Every check is logged with timestamp, verdict, category, confidence, and latency. We provide a dashboard, and the data is exportable to your BI tool. ROI is visible inside the first week.
Our platform uptime commitment is 99.99% per month, the same standard SLA as the rest of BroadNet. Enterprise contracts carry service credits if it is missed; the credit schedule is published on our Support & SLA page. Every customer uses the same API endpoints.
On enterprise, yes. Co-branded portal and white-label API endpoints available, including a private sub-domain on your DNS and per-customer credentials.
Cheaper, faster, and lower-risk. Building this in-house means data feeds, normalization, freshness pipelines, ongoing maintenance, and a team that owns it for the long term. Most operators we talk to estimate it as a year-one programme for a materially worse product.
Yes. Bring 1,000 of your real numbers to the demo and we score them live. You see the verdict distribution, the category breakdown, and the latency profile before any conversation about commercials.
