WHOIS record lookup

A single query returns a domain's registration details, such as registrar, dates, and contact fields where they are public. A Beam agent sends the domain in question, reads the returned record, and applies your rule to file the relevant fields against the case that prompted the check, like a fraud review or a partner vetting task. When key fields are redacted, missing, or contradict what the case already holds, the agent flags the domain for a person to investigate rather than drawing a conclusion from an incomplete record.

Domain database access

Beyond live lookups, the service offers bulk WHOIS data, so you can screen many domains against stored records at once. A Beam agent reads a list of domains from a task, applies your rule to check each against the database, and updates records with what it finds. If a domain is absent from the data, or its details fall outside the pattern your rule expects, the agent sets it aside and notifies an analyst, so an unclear or unusual domain gets human eyes before it feeds a decision downstream.

Registration and expiry data

Registration and expiry dates show when a domain was created and when it lapses, useful for vetting and portfolio checks. A Beam agent reads these dates, applies your rule, and notifies the owner or updates a record when a date meets a condition you care about, such as an imminent expiry. When a date looks inconsistent, or a domain nears expiry on a name your rule treats as important, the agent escalates to a person to decide on renewal or further action rather than acting alone.
