# Introduction

Explore our documentation, guides and examples for integrating Synthient into your application.

## Welcome to Synthient

Synthient is a large-scale, high-confidence engine for detecting anonymized indicators, such as residential proxies, VPNs, and other relay nodes.

### What Synthient Provides

- High-Fidelity data on residential proxies, VPNs, and other anonymized IPs.
- Real-time streaming capabilities for instant detection.
- Tracking of private and public proxy services along with corresponding proxy botnets.
- Maintained blocklists of IPv4/IPv6 ISP and Datacenter ranges used by major proxy providers.

## Setup

Once you've received access to the platform, you can get started by reviewing our API documentation for our main products.

- [IP API](https://docs.synthient.com/ipapi): Lookup IP information, risk, and enrichment signals.
- [Enterprise](https://docs.synthient.com/enterprise/feeds): Access to large-scale realtime datasets for enterprise clients.

## Built for LLMs and agents

Your agent shouldn't have to scrape these pages. We publish two files in the [llms.txt](https://llmstxt.org) format, written for machine readers rather than exported from the docs: no navigation, no repetition, every fact stated once, plus the integration rules models get wrong most often.

- [llms.txt](https://docs.synthient.com/llms.txt)
- [llms-full.txt](https://docs.synthient.com/llms-full.txt)

Point a tool at either URL, or pipe one straight into a prompt:

```bash
curl https://docs.synthient.com/llms-full.txt
```

If your agent has tool access, [`synthient mcp`](https://docs.synthient.com/cli#mcp-server) goes further: it serves live lookups, feed metadata, and gRPC schemas over the Model Context Protocol instead of static text.
