LocateOne comprises four key APIs: the Address Standardization API, Address Validation API, Geocoding API, and the Revere Geocoder API. These APIs improve data quality, reduce errors, enhance address accuracy, and improve operational efficiency for logistics, delivery services, and businesses requiring geographic data.

The Address Standardization API transforms unstructured addresses into a standardized format, corrects inaccuracies, and completes missing information. This improves data quality and reduces errors, leading to more efficient operations and seamless delivery processes. In India, where 40% of people tend to write incorrect pin codes, this feature is particularly valuable for reducing delivery failures.

The Address Validation API verifies the deliverability of a postal address by leveraging advanced machine learning models and historical data instead of relying solely on postal databases. The API assesses the validity of an address by comparing it with patterns of legitimate and reachable addresses in the same area. This allows the API to classify an address as valid, invalid, or ambiguous. By providing validity information based on user-generated addresses, this API enhances address data accuracy, reduces delivery failures, and improves operational efficiency.

The Geocoding API converts addresses into geographic coordinates. By translating a street address into latitude and longitude, businesses can place markers on a map or accurately position the map. This feature is crucial for logistics, delivery services, or any application that requires the use of geographic data.

The Reverse Geocoder API converts latitude and longitude coordinates into easy-to-read addresses, making it an ideal choice for improving user experiences such as shopping cart and checkout experience.
