Numverify Validates Numbers.1Lookup Delivers Intelligence.

Numverify provides basic phone validation—but it stops at carrier lookup. 1Lookup is a comprehensive intelligence platform that validates, analyzes fraud risk, provides HLR data, and delivers actionable insights. Built for businesses that need accuracy, speed, and comprehensive data.

Real-Time HLR Data

While Numverify only provides basic carrier information, 1Lookup includes real-time HLR (Home Location Register) data with every lookup. Get subscriber status, roaming information, and network intelligence that Numverify simply can't provide.
