SaaS & Product Teams

Add location to your product. Without building the infrastructure.

Placematic gives SaaS teams production-ready APIs for geocoding, routing, maps, and territory management — so you ship location features in days, not quarters.

REST APIs — production-ready, fully documented
One contract, one invoice — no HERE account needed
The problem

Building location from scratch is a bigger bet than it looks.

01

Vendor sprawl

Geocoding, routing, and map rendering each require separate vendors, separate contracts, and separate engineering effort to maintain.
02

Not your core product

Location infrastructure is not your core product — but bugs in it affect your customers directly and pull your team away from what matters.
03

Unpredictable scaling

Scaling location features is unpredictable — API rate limits, data licensing, and infrastructure costs compound as your product grows.
The solution

One integration. Full location stack.

/geocode

Geocoding & Address Search

Convert addresses to coordinates with high accuracy. Autocomplete, batch geocoding, and reverse geocoding — all via REST. Optimized for US addresses with global coverage.
1600 E Gold...
/routing

Routing API

Single and multi-stop route optimization. Supports time windows, vehicle profiles, and real-world road constraints. Returns turn-by-turn directions and ETA estimates.
AB
/maps

Digital Maps API

Embeddable, lightweight map tiles for your product UI. HERE-powered base maps with customizable styles. No separate HERE account or contract required.
/spatial

Territory & Spatial API

Proprietary spatial APIs for territory management, zone queries, polygon operations, and coverage calculations — built and maintained by Placematic, not a third-party reseller.
How it works

From first API call to production in days.

01
Step
Scope your integration
Brief technical call to define which APIs fit your product architecture and estimated call volumes — we build a real integration plan, not a sales pitch.
02
Step
Get credentials & docs
API keys, full documentation, and direct access to our engineering team for integration questions. No gatekeeping, no demo-ware.
03
Step
Ship to production
Deploy with confidence. Ongoing support, SLA, and a single point of contact for everything location-related.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not listed here? Our team responds to scoping questions within one business day.

No. Placematic USA LLC is the contracting and billing party for all HERE-powered services. One agreement, one invoice — you deal with us, not HERE directly.

We provide full REST API documentation and offer a scoped pilot with test credentials tied to your actual use case — not a generic sandbox with rate-limited demo data.

Pricing is modular and scales with usage. We define volume tiers together during onboarding so there are no surprises as your product grows.

Yes. Our services are fully modular. Most SaaS teams start with geocoding or routing and add territory or map APIs as their product evolves.
