WHOIS History API: Every Ownership Change Since 1986
The WHOIS History API gives you programmatic access to the complete ownership timeline of any domain covering every registrar change, registrant update, nameserver modification, and expiry event, going back to 1986. Each record is deduplicated so you only see genuine changes, not noise.
