Geokeo
Your AI agent converts addresses to GPS coordinates and coordinates to readable addresses using Geokeo's lightweight API. With 2,500 free daily requests and global coverage powered by OpenStreetMap, every location question gets resolved without premium geocoding costs eating into your budget.
Two endpoints, zero complexity. Your AI agent geocodes addresses and reverse-geocodes coordinates with sub-second response times and no configuration overhead.
Geokeo
See how businesses plug lightweight geocoding into customer conversations for delivery checks, location validation, and place lookups without engineering complexity.
A customer types their shipping address into your chat-based checkout. Your AI Agent geocodes it through Geokeo and checks whether valid coordinates are returned. If the address resolves successfully, checkout proceeds. If not, the agent asks the customer to double-check their input. Failed deliveries and returned packages decrease because bad addresses get caught at the conversation level.
A customer shares their live location on WhatsApp asking for the nearest service center. Your AI Agent reverse-geocodes the coordinates through Geokeo, identifies their city and neighborhood, matches it against your branch database, and responds with the closest location including distance and directions. Support feels local and immediate, not scripted and generic.
A hotel guest asks 'How do I get to the Colosseum from here?' Your AI Agent geocodes 'Colosseum' through Geokeo to get precise coordinates, then combines that with the hotel's known location to calculate approximate distance and direction. The guest gets a useful answer without the agent needing a full maps integration. Simple geocoding powers practical travel guidance.

FAQs
Geokeo's free starter plan includes 2,500 API requests per day with no credit card required. This covers both forward and reverse geocoding calls. For businesses needing higher volumes, paid plans are available with increased daily limits.
Geokeo combines data from OpenStreetMap, GeoNames, and Natural Earth. The geocoding engine uses features from both Nominatim and Pelias search engines. This multi-source approach provides broad global coverage, though accuracy varies by region with stronger results in well-mapped areas.
Yes. The forward geocoding endpoint accepts an optional country parameter using ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes (like 'us', 'gb', 'de'). Your agent can detect customer locale and apply country filtering automatically, ensuring results are relevant to the customer's geography.
Geokeo accepts search queries up to 50 characters. For most street addresses and place names, this is sufficient. Your agent can abbreviate common terms (St for Street, Ave for Avenue) if needed to fit within the limit for longer addresses.
Tars queries Geokeo in real time during conversations. Coordinates and addresses are used within the active session. Tars does not maintain a separate location database from Geokeo responses. If you need to persist geocoded data, configure your agent to write results to your own database.
For basic forward and reverse geocoding, Geokeo delivers comparable results with zero cost at low volumes. Google Maps offers more features (places details, street view, traffic) but charges per request. If your agent needs straightforward coordinate lookups without premium features, Geokeo is a cost-effective choice.
Geokeo returns JSON by default, which is what Tars uses for processing. XML format is also supported for reverse geocoding. The JSON response includes coordinates, formatted address, address components (house number, street, city, state, country), and bounding box data.
Geokeo's API processes one address per request. For batch needs, your agent sends sequential requests. The 2,500 daily free limit means moderate batch processing is possible within the free tier. For high-volume batch geocoding, consider pairing Geokeo with a batch-capable provider.
Don't limit your AI Agent to basic conversations. Watch how to configure and add powerful tools making your agent smarter and more functional.
