README

Gravatar Lookup fetches public Gravatar profiles and avatar image URLs for any email address. It returns the display name, username, biography, location, company, job title and pronouns; paid plans add linked accounts (hidden ones flagged) and whether the email has its own uploaded avatar.

The Gravatar Lookup API provides a simple, reliable way to integrate gravatar lookup functionality into your applications. Built for developers who need production-ready gravatar lookup capabilities without the complexity of building from scratch.
