Customer reviews

Ailton Santos

Founder and CEO at greenddt, Brazil

"I have a marketplace startup and we work at pest control market São Paulo, Brazil.The idea is get the Matrix distance API to find the closest partners, the final user and foment the local business to them, avoid expenses with gasoline, vehicle depreciation and spent time to displacement in São Paulo city.
The value that we saw in using the API are: easy to use, the performance is great and the result in kilometers is better when we comparing to the others players API like, Google, OSRM and Open Rout Service."

Har Dhillon

Full Stack Developer, UK

"We were really happy with the distance matrix API and it's speed. A great competitor to the Google matrix API and really fantastic that it works in a similar way. Makes it very easy when you want to move away from the Google API."

Riccardo Lucato

Co-Founder at Adamas, Germany

"So far I am satisfied with DistanceMatrix.ai, above all with its ease of use. It is more intuitive and straightforward than other APIs I’ve used in the past."

Camille Morand

France

"I use your API for a project where the goal is to create an online marketplace, which has to call different services, using SOAP and REST. Among this services, I need one to be able to compute transport fees, according to the distance between the buyer and the seller. I use your API for that. I find your API very easy to use for my case. Particularly, I appreciate having the choice in the location definition: it was useful for me to be able to use postal code as city names."

Benjamin Coppel

Flex Consultant at Square Wave, Australia

"I develop custom reports and other custom software solutions to extend the functionality of an inventory tracking and logistics package. In this case I am using the Distance matrix API to provide distance and duration of delivery trips. I am loving the Distance matrix API - everything about it works perfectly for me."

Alex Fischer

Software Developer at Quadrant Newmedia Corporation, Canada

"It was well documented, easy to use, and there was no barrier to entry for the trial. We’ll definitely keep it in mind for any larger future projects."

Wassim Ammar

"I am very happy and satisfied with DistanceMatrix.ai's API. It helps me a lot on my project thanks to its simplicity and efficiency, I am really grateful for its fantastic services and I would like to thank all the team of DistanceMatrix.ai."

Gustavo Villela Rodrigues

Senior Consultant, Management Consulting at KPMG Consultoria Ltda., Brazil

"I have used the DistanceMatrix.ai punctually to get some distances between addresses, worked very well and I am satisfied with results."

Niels Kuipers

Software developer student at Avans Hogeschool, the Netherlands

"Me and a group of 5 other students are working on a project that uses the distancematrix api, we like it a lot! We would love to use it for the entirety of our project."

Jayson Reynolds

Systems Architect and Software Engineer at Seven Lemons, South Africa

"This API is really brilliant. I love the data that comes back. Great to develop on an API that works well :)"

Mario Rossi

Italy

"I use DistanceMatrix for a personal project. I use it in amateur regularity rallies to build checkpoints along the route and verify that onboard instruments are working well.My use case is quite simple and I need a simple and fast service. But I need a RELIABLE service. DistanceMatrix is simple and fast to learn and it's really RELIABLE!"

Kareem Dabbeet

IT Engineering student at Damascus University, Syria

"I've spent a huge time searching for the best API to give me distance matrix API. Websites like: Google distance API, Traveltime, Mapbox, Openrouteservice, OSRM, Graphhopper, and more. However, I've faced too much limitation in each API. I've found your website that combines all these features in one place. Your API is the best above all other ones."

Mark Zamie

Barrientos, Philippines

"Distancematrix.ai helps me a lot learning how to develop a mobile app with navigation, also I love the fact that its API calls and response are identical with Google API."

Matthias Kurz

Germany

"I wanted to know how long we have to drive by car from address x to each hike for a list of hikes, sorted by the time it needs... In each case a fast look in my list helps. Advantage: I don't have to manual copy paste each address to Google maps. For my private use case, your API was great!! If I would need something for work I would consider using it."

Marcos Roriz

Professor and Researcher Universidade Federal de Goiás, Brazil

"I'm a professor at Federal University of Goiás (Brazil), where I work in the Transportation Engineering department. I'm using Distance Matrix AI in an Artificial Intelligence class that I teach on the course. The class is focused on Computational Evolution and Metaheuristics.I'm teaching the students in using Distance Matrix AI API to build a real distance O/D for optimizing the routes of a small supply chain product."

Marcos de Lafuente

Senior Software Engineer, Mexico

"I compared the result with Google's API and it was EXACTLY THE SAME. It took me less than 5 mins since I first reached your site until I did my first test. That was incredibly easy."
