Doesn't work for the other 125 encoded characters that are numerically seven, as defined in the Unicode Character Database:

Well then, I won’t be a paying customer then.

I should mention that unicode.org has a "Unicode Set" query tool so no one gets swindled by a similar service ;)

I was almost sure that they do it client-side for a joke, but if you check the browser console, you can see that they actually make a request! You can even make the same request with curl and it works!

Although, making an HTTP request manually is quite inconvenient, so I'm waiting for Python SDK.

Heads up OP: I’m trying to get a pro license but your checkout flow is borked. Probably should fix ASAP before missing out on HN front page traffic.

Vulnerable to a distillation attack, unfortunately not much of a moat.

OsrsNeedsf2P 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

I misread this as "is even" and was shocked that 46 returned false

8n4vidtmkvmk 2 days ago | parent [-]

I think that's part of the joke. iseven is a real, non-joke package.

ollybee 2 days ago | parent [-]

With 250k weekly downloads. That is no joke.

With a dependency on is-odd (which in turn has a dependency on is-number)

7.0000000000000001 evaluates to true.

silisili 2 days ago | parent | next [-]

As does 6.9999999999999999.

geor9e 2 days ago | parent [-]

true: 0x7, 007, 0b111

kinda: seven

false: siete, 111, VII

It's an inclusive app.

> 77.7% uptime SLA

Giving GitHub a run for its money, I see.

evanb 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

Bug report: I tried 6.999999̅ and got false. So there's some nonstandard model of the reals being leveraged here.

nvader 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

Bug report: I entered 3 + 4 and did not get a kinda or true.

This app is ngmi

wincy 2 days ago | parent | next [-]

Well the all only has 77.7% uptime maybe it just returns wrong things while it’s down, that’s probably it. Try upgrading to Enterprise that’ll probably fix it.

kmoser 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

I would have expected something other than false for "se7en".

golem14 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

Similar report here:

70/10, 7.1-0.1 and srqt(49) also do not return true.

Is there a published SLA for the free version?

fosco 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

00000111 also came back false

downboots 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

no Roman numeral support either

akoboldfrying 2 days ago | parent | prev [-]

BTW: For a tool that actually legitimately does this, look at Semgrep. Their playground example literally assigns 1 to a variable x, after which searching for "2" finds the expression "1 + x" in the code: https://semgrep.dev/playground/s/5rKgj

Very similar to https://isevenapi.xyz/

Even down to injecting an ad into the response as a joke.

CobrastanJorji 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

That documentation is woefully inadequate. It provides only one example request, and then it shows two separate responses, and it doesn't make clear which one is associated with the request. It doesn't even describe the individual request fields, nor does it provide any response codes or a list of error codes/messages. How am I supposed to develop with this?

I do, however, appreciate the seven figure SLA. My service requires at least five nines of uptime, and seven figures is definitely more than five.

8n4vidtmkvmk 2 days ago | parent [-]

Seven figures is indeed more than five figures. Too bad they're all 7s.

seanhunter 2 days ago | parent [-]

7x7=49 > 45=5*9.

Ldo.

himata4113 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

complaint: someone entered "seven" and it crashed my entire infrastructure because the output returned a non standard 'kinda'.

LatticeAnimal 2 days ago | parent [-]

JSONQ supports quantum-aware booleans. Is there a reason you’re still using classical JSON parsing in 2026?

akoboldfrying 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

Enterprise looks promising, but before I take this to upper management: How many sevens of uptime are we talking?

timcobb 2 days ago | parent [-]

> 77.7% uptime SLA

looks like one 7

Needs an Agent skill! Gotta be more modern :)

Did not work, did not recognise 'VII' as seven.

dustimpact 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

Apparently “seven” is only kinda seven. I would argue that seven is seven!

simeonmiteff 2 days ago | parent [-]

Got to love that "kinda" is now a JSON bool value!

bombcar 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

I can use this as a random number generator; at least it's not nine.

rnoorda 2 days ago | parent [-]

It's just as random as any other number!

layer8 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

It hallucinates 6.9999999999999996 to be seven.

I wanted to subscribe and I can't! How do you expect to make any money if that doesn't work?!!1

No other numbers were harmed in the making of this API.

But their feeling hurts, especially primes.

No, this is the test harness for Seven as a Service.

darkhorse13 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

Is this SOC2 compliant?

seanhunter 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-]

We wanted to subscribe to the enterprise plan, but unfortunately:

- No Soc-2 compliance

- No sso support.

We asked if we could host on-prem or even byoc but that seems an impossible dream.

Oh, come on people. You don't need a cloud service for this. Just use the is-seven NPM package.

I like how you spent $10 for the domain for this. :)

amarant 2 days ago | parent [-]

10? That seems about $3 too much!

system2 a day ago | parent [-]

The cheapest domain purchase can be made from CloudFlare. They are selling at ICANN's minimum fee. Which is $10...

Eh, more better than Prolog.
