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.

International Be Kind to Lawyers Day

Lawyers get a bad rap. Lawyers have been around for a long time, and when you're this old, you're bound to collect your fair share of good and bad. It's true, ask your grandpa. We've got records of people described as "lawyers" going back to ancient Greece, Rome, and the Byzantines. These first individuals were folks who were asked to speak for the accused because those under scrutiny were—understandably so—shaken up by the situation. It went from someone who was your friend and did you a favor by speaking on your behalf to someone who knew all of the laws, and you'd hire them to speak eloquently for you.
