AddressZen
Your AI agent validates addresses instantly using USPS-verified data. Customers enter partial addresses, your agent suggests completions, confirms deliverability, and catches typos before orders ship to nowhere. Fewer returns, no undeliverable packages, happier customers.




Your AI agent catches address errors before they become shipping nightmares. Real-time verification, intelligent suggestions, and USPS-backed accuracy power every interaction.
AddressZen
From e-commerce orders to form submissions, see how AI agents use AddressZen to eliminate shipping errors and capture verified customer data the first time.
A customer reaches checkout and starts typing their shipping address. Your AI agent queries AddressZen after just three characters, presenting accurate suggestions that the customer simply taps to select. The complete, USPS-verified address populates instantly. Checkout takes seconds instead of minutes, cart abandonment drops, and every package ships to a valid destination.
A prospect fills out your contact form late at night, rushing through the address field. Your AI agent catches that they typed 'Califronia' and suggests the correct state along with verified street formatting. The lead enters your CRM with accurate location data from day one, no cleanup required. Your sales team trusts the data they see.
A customer messages asking to change their shipping address mid-order. Your AI agent collects the new address conversationally, validates it against USPS records through AddressZen, confirms the correction with the customer, and updates your order system. No manual verification needed, no risk of sending packages to invalid locations.

FAQs
The agent sends address input to AddressZen's verification API, which checks it against USPS official records. AddressZen returns whether the address is valid, standardized formatting, and any corrections needed. The agent presents verified results to the customer or flags issues that need attention.
AddressZen primarily focuses on US address verification using USPS data. For international addresses, you would need a separate validation tool. The Tars integration currently uses AddressZen's US-focused endpoints for domestic address autocomplete and verification.
You need an AddressZen API key, which you receive when you sign up for an account. The key format typically starts with 'ak_' for production or 'sl_' for sandbox testing. Enter this in your Tars dashboard when adding the AddressZen tool to grant your agent access.
AddressZen bills per verified address, not per keystroke in autocomplete. When someone types and sees suggestions, those queries typically don't count against your balance. You're only charged when a full address is resolved and verified. New accounts receive 200 free lookups for testing.
Yes. When a customer enters an address with misspellings or formatting issues, AddressZen suggests corrections. The agent can present these to the customer for confirmation or, for minor standardization changes like abbreviating 'Street' to 'St', apply them automatically based on your configuration.
If an address fails verification, the agent informs the customer that the address could not be confirmed and asks them to double-check their entry. For invalid addresses, the agent can suggest similar valid alternatives that AddressZen found, or offer to connect them with a human agent for assistance.
Tars sends addresses to AddressZen for real-time verification and receives validated results. Address data is handled according to your Tars data retention settings. AddressZen does not store your customer addresses, it processes them and returns verification results in the moment.
AddressZen's API responds in milliseconds, making autocomplete suggestions appear as the customer types without noticeable delay. Full address verification also happens instantly. The rate limit is 30 requests per second per IP, which is more than sufficient for customer conversations.
