    In our recent webinar, we gave tips and tricks and demonstrated live coding magic.

    The essentials of Smarty's address autocomplete API

    JavaScript SDK magic made easy

    Integrating Smarty’s Address Autocomplete API using our JavaScript SDK is a breeze. Smarty also has SDKs for .NET, Android, Go, iOS, Java, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Rust, making setting up client credentials, building functions, and handling address lookups look like child’s play.

    Customize to your heart’s content

    Smarty’s Autocomplete Pro API is your new best friend. You can easily customize everything in how your address data is presented to your user, including:

    Additional address autocomplete enhancements

    Geolocation awesomeness

    We revealed the power of geolocation, showing how to use IP addresses to make suggestions more relevant. For example, you can make autocomplete prioritize suggested addresses near the user's IP location.

    Address validation wizardry

    Dealing with secondary addresses like apartments or units? No problem! Smarty’s APIs handle it all. Combine autocomplete tools with the US Street API for even more detailed data about each address. It’s like having an address data superpower!

    Tips and tricks from the pros

    Optimize lookups

    Pro tip: use an if statement to reduce the number of lookups you spend per address. Check the length of the address input before calling the API to save on unnecessary lookups and improve efficiency.

    Handle new addresses

    Got new buildings with units not yet in the database? No sweat! Use the base address from any autocomplete tool and let users add their unit numbers manually. Combine with the US Street API for full validation.

His race was against time. Today, your ecommerce business is running a race of its own; delivering quickly, accurately, and affordably across a world full of logistical landmines. Fortunately, you don’t need a valet named Passepartout to guide you (although wouldn’t that be fun?!) You just need Smarty. Smarty is your passport to global address data perfection, specializing in address verification, autocomplete, geocoding, and enrichment.
    Address component analysis: A smarter way to validate addresses

    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.
