Short answer

Can my AI check if an IP or domain is blacklisted?

Yes. Your agent uses HetrixTools to scan specific IPv4 addresses or domains against global blacklists. You'll get immediate results on delivery issues and can monitor existing blacklist status through your chat interface.

Where every issue lands.

Blacklist troubleshooting outcomes

The AI categorizes the results of its scans into these specific areas.

IP STATUS

IP blacklist results

The agent runs a scan on a specific IPv4 address. You get a clear report on which blacklists are flagging your IP.

DOMAIN STATUS

Domain blacklist results

The agent checks your domain against global lists. This helps you see if your domain reputation is causing delivery failures.

MONITORING

Active monitor list

The agent pulls a list of your current blacklist monitors. You can see what is already being watched for changes.

HUMAN ACTION

Manual remediation

The AI identifies the problem but cannot request a delisting. You'll need to contact the blacklist providers yourself to fix the status.

The workflow

What your AI does when a delivery issue arrives.

Instead of you logging into a dashboard, your agent performs the technical lookups directly.

  1. Identify the target

    The agent takes the IP or domain you provide and prepares the scan request.

    check_ip_blacklist

  2. Run domain checks

    If you are troubleshooting domain reputation, the agent checks the domain against global databases.

    check_domain_blacklist

  3. Review active monitors

    The agent can pull your existing monitoring setup to see what is currently being tracked.

    list_blacklist_monitors

  4. Report findings

    The agent summarizes which blacklists are active and presents the data in your chat window.

    check_ip_blacklistcheck_domain_blacklist
