Less time wrangling data.
More time on the story.
Geocode and standardize addresses. Add Census tracts, demographics, Congressional districts, and more. Get your data map-ready.
Whether you have 750 addresses or 75 million, a spreadsheet or a data feed, Geocodio can handle it on deadline and on budget.
Used by thousands of journalists
Geocodio is such an excellent and reasonably-priced resource for data journalism work.
Maybe you have data on hundreds of roadkill pickups in Philadelphia, thousands of parking tickets in Chicago, or millions of PPP loans across the US.
The addresses might be clean. (They probably aren't.)
Before the writing begins, you need to clean up those addresses, geocode them, and join them with additional data. All of that should take minutes, not days.
Journalists use Geocodio because it's easy, affordable, and stays out of the way:
- Upload a spreadsheet or use the Geocodio API and get back clean, standardized addresses with coordinates.
- Add Census tracts, demographics, FIPS codes, or Congressional districts in the same step.
- Download the results and bring them straight into Excel, QGIS, R, Python, Tableau, or whatever you use next.
Most geocoding providers restrict what you can do with their data. Geocodio doesn't. So you're free to store the results, publish them, or put them in a news app.

More than just coordinates

Geocodio’s service is more accurate, faster, offers more data, costs less, and has fewer restrictions than Google while presenting responses in a similar enough result format to the Google Maps geocoder that makes it easy to move over existing code.
