What DNSai is
DNSai uses public DNS records to profile domains, showing information about mail providers, security posture, hosting, platforms, and record changes. Its Domain Manager scans more than 50 DNS record types, including A, MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI, and DNSSEC. It keeps a history of DNS changes and can send alerts when records change. The service does not crawl behind authentication, and a vendor record only shows that a domain published that record; it does not prove the domain has seats, spending, or an active contract. DNSai is available on the web, through an API, and as DNS Explorer for Windows 11 and macOS. The maker says desktop processing keeps domain data on the user’s machine. Listed integrations and data options include Salesforce and HubSpot sync, a Claude MCP connector, CSV export, and SIEM webhooks; the REST API is available on Enterprise plans and above. The Free plan includes 100 domains, 100 scans per day, one seat, limited AI, and no API or MCP. Pro costs $79 a month, and Enterprise costs $499 a month. The maker describes IT administrators, cybersecurity analysts, researchers, and operations teams as intended users.
