Show HN: Guardient – An API to block fake users (temp emails, VPNs, burner phone

https://guardient.me/
1•mhzn•23h ago
I built Guardient, a simple API to help developers stop fake, abusive, and risky users before they get into your app.

It checks things like:

Temporary/disposable emails

VPN and proxy IPs

Temporary/burner phone numbers

You send a request from your backend, and it returns a trust score with reasons. You decide what to do with that info—block, flag, or allow.

No cookies, no client-side scripts—just a clean, server-side API.

I’m 18 and built this out of personal need after getting hit with fake signups and spam in my own projects. Would really appreciate any feedback or thoughts!

Never use a fake email.

Only use a real fake email!
