Work out the VAT-compliant price for an amount in a country: the amounts without and with VAT, the VAT amount and the rate.

Discovered
abstractapi_convert_time

Convert a date and time from one location to another (places, coordinates or IP addresses). Without base_datetime the current time is converted. Timezone API. Spends 1 credit of your Timezone plan per request (a failed request counts too); needs the Timezone API key.

Firmographic data for a company web domain: name, description, logo, address, industry (SIC/NAICS), employee and revenue ranges, contacts, social profiles, technologies. Company Enrichment API.

Discovered
abstractapi_get_historical_rates

Exchange rates of a base currency on a past date. Abstract lists this endpoint as closed beta: a key may be refused (HTTP 401/403) until Abstract enables it. Exchange Rates API. Spends 1 credit of your Exchange Rates plan per request (a failed request counts too); needs the Exchange Rates API key.

Discovered
abstractapi_get_holidays

Public, local and religious holidays of a country for a date, a month or a year. Free Abstract plans require year, month and day together; paid plans default missing values to today.

Discovered
abstractapi_list_vat_rates

The latest VAT rates of one country: the standard rate and each reduced-rate category with its description. VAT Validation API. Abstract answers this endpoint without checking the key and may not count it as a credit; this tool still needs the VAT API key.

Discovered
abstractapi_lookup_ip

Geolocation and security intelligence for one IPv4 or IPv6 address: VPN/proxy/Tor/hosting/abuse flags, ASN, company, location, timezone, flag and currency. IP Intelligence API. An explicit ip_address is required (without one Abstract would look up the caller's own address, which here is this server's).
