What it does

Placekey is an open entity resolution service for Places data. It is a super easy API to link, dedupe, match, and sync places data (including addresses and Points of Interest).

Placekey is a universal place identifier trusted by organizations, businesses, and geospatial scientists to easily represent and unify location data.

Enter an address to find the Placekey associated with that place. You can also try our API! Placekey is an identifier for any physical place, so that the data pertaining to those places can be shared across organizations easily. Placekey goes beyond just an identifier. It’s built with developers in mind who want geospatial data that is easily joined and combined…because real answers come from combining data from many different sources. ‍ When both parts of a Placekey come together, the final result reads as What@Where . This is a unique way of shedding light on both the descriptive element of a place as well as its geospatial position in the physical world via a single identifier. The Where…from placekey.io

    Hi, HN, I'm Roshan and I'm part of the team that's launching the Placekey today at https://placekey.io. It is a free and open universal standard identifier we built so that data pertaining to places can be shared across organizations easily. A Placekey is a short identifier that has Address and POI sections detailing What is at a place and a section describing Where on the globe the place is. Eventually, there will be a Placekey for every place in the world, even those without postal addresses. US geospatial data from a large array of partners…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hi HN, I’m Kashish, one of the co-founders of SpeedVitals, a platform for testing & monitoring website performance with a major emphasis on Core Web Vitals. Until now, our platform has only focused on Synthetic/Lab testing, such as Lighthouse tests and TTFB tests. But now, we have developed a Real-User Monitoring platform that doubles up as a Web Analytics tool. One major feature we have that most RUM tools lack is Performance Audits. Just like Lighthouse audits work on Lab test data, our audits work across all the real-user visits and gives suggestions on what task to prioritize first.…
