Know the limitations

  • Free plan limits usage to 3,000 credits per day and up to 5 requests per second with limited commercial use and best effort support.
  • Rate limits exist per plan and API; exceeding limits may result in contact for upgrade or account restriction if usage impacts platform performance.

What you can do

  • Building location-aware applications with maps, address search, routing, and place discovery.
  • Spatial analysis such as reachability, service coverage, and elevation profiling.

Features

  • Vector and raster map tiles, static maps, and marker APIs for custom map building.
  • Geocoding API for address search, reverse geocoding, and fast autocomplete.
  • Routing API to calculate routes, optimize multi-stop plans, and solve logistics tasks.
  • Places API to search points of interest, fetch place details, and work with postcodes and categories.
  • Reachability and analysis APIs for travel-time areas, service coverage, and elevation profiles.

Integrations
