Is this a clone of ipinfo.io?

I mean, probably. But there's also ip-api.com, ipapi.co, ipstack.com, ipgeolocation.io, ipinfodb.com, ipify.org... List goes on and on.

Most of these providers just package MaxMind data and send it back. Some of them have more data that they inject themselves.

We use ipstack.com, I'm curious which have the most accurate and complete data?

We offer additional datapoints which ipstack doesn't.

We expose high detailed ASN data which include company name, company type, ASN network, web domain.

Also we expose a crypto datapoint, which flags if an IP is an active Bitcoin node.

It is - if you compare the sites it looks like ipinfo.io is doing a grab for a multi-branded approach by changing the design of the site up JUST enough so it looks like another org.

They are definitely separate organizations.
