SmartyKey® glowing inside a house representing address verification

Up until now, SmartyKey®, a persistent unique identifier for all 210+ million addresses in Smarty’s database, has only been available to customers who purchased US Master Address List or geocoding products. We’re happy to announce that, as of today, it's also available at no extra cost with US Address Verification. Yippee!

But … what is SmartyKey?

SmartyKey is the persistent, unique identifier of your dreams. It remains constant through address changes and is available for USPS and non-USPS addresses. 

It’s an incredible tool that improves data hygiene and management processes by providing a historical view of the same location over time. Alias addresses will become more evident, and the deduplication process will be more straightforward because SmartyKey tracks changes to an address at any address over time. 

Enriching your addresses is snappier now. Datapoints such as roof type, square footage, tax jurisdiction, sale amount, lot size, and more are also bonuses within reach while using SmartyKey in your US address verification adventures. This tool is truly a game-changer in data management and enrichment.

It’s also an absolute must for any organization looking at data blending, as records are speedily matched with ease and accuracy. Say goodbye to address and reporting confusion. Say hello to SmartyKey.

SmartyKey spiffiness

But … do I have to pay more now?

NOPE! Existing customers are now automatically receiving SmartyKey in their verification results at no extra cost and with no additional fuss. We’re just grandfathering you guys in. You don't need to do anything except sit back and enjoy the new benefits that SmartyKey offers in every verification result!

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
Arrow Icon
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.
