IMEILens
Free IMEI validation, generation and MCP server for developers
IMEILens provides a free API and MCP server to validate IMEI numbers, identify devices from their TAC, and generate test IMEIs for software testing.
Overview
The IMEILens homepage
IMEILens is a free developer tool that offers IMEI validation and generation capabilities through multiple interfaces. The service provides a REST API, MCP server, and integrations with ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and VS Code. The API validates IMEI numbers by checking length and Luhn checksum, identifies devices using a database of about 276,000 TAC entries, and generates Luhn-valid test IMEIs for software testing and QA.
No sign-up or API key is required. The service offers 60 requests per minute per IP, with the ability to validate up to 100 IMEIs per request. Generated IMEIs are for testing only and start with 00 by default to avoid matching real phones. The tool also generates test ICCID (SIM card) numbers and supports MCP clients for AI assistants.

Buyer questions
What does the API validate?
The API checks the length and Luhn check digit, splits the number into its parts (TAC, reporting body, serial number, check digit), and identifies the device from a TAC database of about 276,000 entries. It does not check blacklist, carrier or iCloud status.
What is the rate limit?
The API has a rate limit of 60 requests per minute per IP. When exceeded, you get a 429 status with Retry-After: 60.
Can I use generated IMEIs to spoof a real device?
No. Generated IMEIs are for software testing only and never use them to change, clone or spoof a device's IMEI or to get around blacklisting; that's illegal in many countries and against the terms.
Do I need to sign up or use an API key?
No, the API requires no sign-up and no API key to use.
How can I use the MCP server with ChatGPT?
As an app via MCP: go to Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced → enable Developer mode → Create, use the URL https://imeilens.com/mcp and choose No authentication. Or as a Custom GPT by importing the OpenAPI spec from https://imeilens.com/openapi.json.
