WHOIS record parser

Paste the raw text a WHOIS server returns for a domain and this tool pulls out the fields that matter: registrar, registrant organisation and country, creation, last-updated and expiry dates, the nameservers, and the EPP status codes attached to the domain. It's built for anyone who reads WHOIS output regularly — support teams checking a renewal, security researchers triaging a domain, or developers automating a manual lookup — and would rather scan a short summary than a wall of registry text.

Turn on Explain status codes to see what codes like clientTransferProhibited or pendingDelete actually mean, instead of just the raw string. Strip boilerplate and redacted fields drops placeholder values such as "REDACTED FOR PRIVACY" so a field with no real data doesn't clutter the result. Show days remaining until expiry adds a countdown next to the expiry date, worked out from your device's clock. Choose field table for a readable summary, or JSON for a structure you can feed into another tool or script.

Different registries format the same information differently — some print 2024-01-15T00:00:00Z, others 15-Jan-2024 or 2024.01.15 — and every date the parser recognises is normalised to ISO 8601 so records line up. Paste several WHOIS responses separated by a blank line and batch mode parses each into its own entry in the output; unrecognised fields are left out rather than guessed at, and Windows and Unix line endings are both handled.

Nothing is looked up: the tool only reads the text you paste, it never queries a WHOIS server or any other service. Everything runs locally in your browser, which matters if the record you're checking covers an internal or otherwise sensitive domain. Copy the result, download it as a .txt file, or send the output back into the input to reformat it again.

FAQ

Does the tool look up WHOIS data for me?
No. It only parses text you paste — it never queries a WHOIS server or any other service.
Which date formats does it recognise?
Common formats used across gTLD and ccTLD registries, including ISO 8601 (2024-01-15T00:00:00Z), 15-Jan-2024, 2024.01.15 and 2024-01-15. Recognised dates are normalised to ISO 8601; anything it can't parse is shown as-is.
How does batch mode work?
Paste multiple WHOIS responses one after another, separated by a blank line. Each one that contains a recognisable domain field is parsed into its own entry in the output.
What happens to redacted or GDPR-blocked fields?
With Strip boilerplate and redacted fields on, placeholder values like REDACTED FOR PRIVACY are left out instead of appearing as a field with no real content. Turn the option off to see the raw value.
Is my WHOIS text uploaded anywhere?
No. Parsing runs entirely in your browser — the text you paste never leaves your device.
