# Introduction

> GeoScale Address API is an address autocomplete API designed for high-quality, country-specific address search.

## Address autocomplete

Address autocomplete helps users find the correct address while typing.

For example, when a user types:

> dam 1

The API returns a list of matching addresses, such as:

<Card>
  * Dam 1, Amsterdam
  * Dam 1, Zaandam
  * Dam 1, Schiedam
  * Dam 1, Alblasserdam
  * Dam 1, Goes
</Card>

This allows users to select the correct address instead of typing it manually, improving user
experience and reducing errors.
