    May 28, 2020 - PROVO, UTAH - SmartyStreets, a leader in location data intelligence, announces the release of the new US Autocomplete Pro API, a service that improves data governance at the source and simplifies address data entry in real-time.

    The US Autocomplete Pro API starts suggesting valid addresses as soon as the user first starts typing an address. All addresses suggested are 100% validated and standardized, and are returned to the user in a fraction of a second. Additionally, the API can determine if an address should also include a unit number, and will suggest valid unit numbers to the user accordingly. This ensures rapid, precise data entry, thereby ensuring clean address data in business databases.

    “More than ever, businesses rely on quality address data. When bad addresses enter into a system, it can negatively impact customers, a company’s revenue, and even the company’s reputation,” explained Jonathan Oliver, Founder of SmartyStreets. “The cost of unreliable address data is too high. By introducing the US Autocomplete API, we help empower businesses, so they can dramatically increase the accuracy of data as it first enters their systems.”

    Many other autocomplete services include invalid addresses in their suggestions. And, they usually do not include unit numbers as part of their address suggestions. Users who don’t see their correct address suggested can become frustrated and decide to abandon their shopping cart. Or, if they decide to proceed, they can cause incorrect data to enter into a business’ systems resulting in shipping errors, returns, and inconsistent data. All of this can be avoided by using a tool like SmartyStreets’ US Autocomplete Pro API.

    To try the API, visit the SmartyStreets US Autocomplete Pro API demo page. As with all of SmartyStreets APIs, the US Autocomplete Pro API comes with SmartyStreets’ unlimited customer service, 100% uptime guarantee, and easy implementation.

    Address component analysis: A smarter way to validate addresses
    Arrow Icon
    Most address validation tools give you a simple thumbs up or down on an address because it either matches or it doesn’t, right? But what if you need more than just “valid” or “invalid” as a response? What if you could know exactly what part of the address is off, like a misspelled street name or an unconfirmed vanity city (like Hollywood), and why it isn’t considered valid?What if part of an address needed to change in order to make it a mailable, valid address? We think you’d want to know that, too.

    Dateline: Tuesday, 8:04 a. m. In what experts are calling “the biggest location intelligence crisis since the discovery of space,” rooftop-accurate geocodes have officially gone on strike. The high-precision coordinates—normally pinpointing locations down to the exact rooftop for deliveries, telecom installs, insurance claims, and analytics—appeared on Smarty TV and issued a short but cutting statement this morning:“We’re tired of being taken for granted. We’re tired of being treated like just another number.
