Free Geospatial API — Open Data

Every place on Earth.
One API call.

Free geospatial API built on the full OpenStreetMap planet. Geocoding, routing, search, and Overpass QL — all streaming, one API.

No credit card. 10,000 requests/month free.

Open data, no lock-in

Built on OpenStreetMap under ODbL. No vendor lock-in, no restrictive ToS. Cache and redistribute freely.

Everything in one API

Geocoding, routing, search, Overpass QL, and SPARQL. No microservices, no external dependencies. One endpoint.

Drop-in replacement

Migrate from Google Maps or Mapbox with minimal code changes. Same concepts, similar endpoints, way lower cost.

Works with everything you already use
