Webinar recap: Ready to take your web forms from "meh" to "wow"?

In our recent webinar, we gave tips and tricks and demonstrated live coding magic.

The essentials of Smarty's address autocomplete API

JavaScript SDK magic made easy

Integrating Smarty’s Address Autocomplete API using our JavaScript SDK is a breeze. Smarty also has SDKs for .NET, Android, Go, iOS, Java, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Rust, making setting up client credentials, building functions, and handling address lookups look like child’s play.

Customize to your heart’s content

Smarty’s Autocomplete Pro API is your new best friend. You can easily customize everything in how your address data is presented to your user, including:

Additional address autocomplete enhancements

Geolocation awesomeness

We revealed the power of geolocation, showing how to use IP addresses to make suggestions more relevant. For example, you can make autocomplete prioritize suggested addresses near the user's IP location.

Address validation wizardry

Dealing with secondary addresses like apartments or units? No problem! Smarty’s APIs handle it all. Combine autocomplete tools with the US Street API for even more detailed data about each address. It’s like having an address data superpower!

Tips and tricks from the pros

Optimize lookups

Pro tip: use an if statement to reduce the number of lookups you spend per address. Check the length of the address input before calling the API to save on unnecessary lookups and improve efficiency.

Handle new addresses

Got new buildings with units not yet in the database? No sweat! Use the base address from any autocomplete tool and let users add their unit numbers manually. Combine with the US Street API for full validation.

Ready to try Smarty’s autocomplete?

You can get a free trial with 1,000 lookups for testing. Need more testing lookups? Just ask, and Smarty will hook you up!

Cozy-cringe couture: Ugly Sweater Day
Arrow Icon
Just as wearing an “I voted” sticker has a time and a place, so too does the ugliest sweater you own. That’s right. It’s that time magical time when otherwise sensible adults deliberately dress like their grandmother's couch had a love child with a craft store explosion. The beauty of Ugly Sweater Day lies in its delicious irony – the more you fail at fashion, the more you succeed at the holiday. It's the only day of the year when "Where did you get that hideous thing?" is a genuine compliment.

We love ninjas!Yes, we do!We love ninjas!How about you? crickets We know they’re out there. BUT TODAY IS THEIR DAY, so even though these sneaky, highly-trained martial artists aren’t going to join our cheering throngs, we’ll celebrate them on National Day of the Ninja. Why?Because we’re ninja masters (sort of). We’re really good at solving every address issue just like we believe our fellow shadow warriors would—silently running in the background, solving challenges with unparalleled speed and accuracy.
