Trusted by Over 550,000 Developers Worldwide
Powering innovation at the world’s most recognized brands and most important companies.
Built by developers, for developers
An API is only as good as its documentation - that's why we hired the world's best technical writers to create clear, concise, and interactive API docs.
Sample Request and Response
All our APIs contain example request URLs with parameters and complete sample responses. You can see exactly what data is returned and how to process it.

How we source our data
We know how important high-quality data is. Our rigorous 3-step process to vet all data sources carefully before integrating them into our API products.
1. Data provider audit
We carefully inspect not only the data source itself but also the provider's reliability, reputation, and business history.
In practice, this means that we use official primary sources whenever possible and only work with reputable data vendors.
2. Data quality inspection
Our engineering team manually inspects every data source to verify its accuracy and cleans the data before ingesting it into our systems.
For highly technical APIs we will also bring in industry experts to help validate the data.
3. Data coverage validation
We also manually check all datasets for sufficient coverage. This often involves benchmarking against industry leaders and working with customers directly to make sure that we can service their use cases.
Enterprise-grade Security
Data Encryption
We protect all data through enterprise-grade encryption both during transmission (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256).
Secure Cloud Infrastructure
We use state-of-the-art cloud infrastructure and regularly perform vulnerability assessments.
Incident Response Commitment
We perform 24/7 security monitoring and have defined incident response procedures and customer notification protocols in place.
Security Questionnaires
SIG and CAIQ questionnaires are available to customers upon request. Our security and data teams can also fill out customer-specific questionnaires.
Zero API Data Storage
We do not store any input (e.g. query parameters, body data) or output (response data) from API calls.
Secure Payments
All payments are strictly handled through Stripe, our payment vendor. We do not have direct access to any credit cards or banking information.
Privacy Compliance
We are fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations, and we provide the utmost transparency in our data practices. Read our privacy policy to learn more.
Privacy by Design
Not a third-party API marketplace
All our APIs are built and maintained in-house by our engineering team. Customers receive several key benefits:
High-quality Data
We thoroughly vet all data sources to ensure that they are reliable and accurate before integrating them into our APIs.
Best Performance
Third-party API marketplaces increase latency by making extra network requests - our APIs interface with data sources directly.
Top-notch Reliability
We have built-in redundancies against software and hardware failures to ensure that our APIs work without interruption.
Direct Support
All APIs are built and maintained in-house, which means faster bug fixes and direct support from our engineering team.
APIs you can rely on
Having served tens of billions of API calls over the last 5 years, we can deliver results at any scale.
200,000,000+
Requests per month
We use state-of-the-art server architecture to can handle high traffic loads and sporadic bursts of incoming requests.
