Improve data quality

Your customers can enter and immediately verify addresses when shopping online. This improves the comfort of use, reduces the abandonment of baskets and ensures timely delivery.

Precision

The quality of customer data is the key to accurate address verification across the sales and delivery process. Improves business analytics, sales and marketing — and provides clean and accurate data for geocoding API solutions.

Better user experience

Our knowledge of address verification empowers clients to deliver the right results all the time — from capturing it in web forms and APIs to cleaning and validation of address data.

Frequently asked questions.

It’s a real-time address autocomplete and validation API built and operated by Placematic. As users type an address into a form, the API returns ranked address suggestions — reducing input errors, speeding up form completion, and delivering validated coordinates instantly. It supports both single-string (one input field) and multi-string (separate fields for street, city, ZIP) search modes.

The Geocoding API converts a complete address to coordinates — it’s designed for batch processing and backend data enrichment. The Address and Search API is designed for real-time user-facing input — autocomplete suggestions as someone types, address validation at the point of entry, and immediate coordinate return. They work best together: autocomplete at the front end, batch geocoding for your database on the backend.

 

Two modes: single-string (the user types everything into one field — “1600 Golf Rd, Rolling Meadows, IL”) and multi-string (separate fields for street, city, area, and house number). Single-string is better for consumer-facing forms. Multi-string is better for structured data entry in logistics and dispatch systems.

300M+ addresses across 190+ countries. For selected countries we ensure compliance with local address entry standards — including country-specific formats, postal code validation, and administrative region naming. The algorithms are tailored to each country’s address structure.

The Address and Search API is optimized for real-time single requests — not batch jobs. For batch processing of large address lists, use the Placematic Geocoding API which handles millions of addresses per job. Both APIs are available under the same Placematic contract.

Yes. Unlike Google Maps Platform which prohibits storing autocomplete results, Placematic does not restrict you from saving address data returned by the API. You can store validated addresses and coordinates in your own database for downstream processing, routing, and analytics.

Our address verification solution geocodes, analyzes, standardizes, verifies, cleans, and formats address data — not just converts strings to coordinates. It handles misspellings, abbreviated street names, missing components, and regional naming variations. Returns a confidence score with every result so you can flag low-confidence matches for manual review.

Yes. Placematic offers on-premise deployment for clients who require data to remain within their own infrastructure — for compliance, security, or latency reasons. The same API interface works in cloud and on-premise configurations. Contact us to discuss deployment options.

Sub-100ms median response time for single autocomplete requests. Enterprise SLA available — uptime and response time guarantees defined in your Placematic contract. Both standard and extended SLA options are available.
