Months ago I was looking for geographical APIs to build a great registration form for other project I had. I wanted to pre-fill the user location using their IP address, but let them edit if necessary. I also wanted my product to be global, so users could seen and type their location in any language. I couldn't find any service like that.
All IP location services out there have unorganized databases, English-only and most important don't have a service to search / autocomplete places by string. Once I realized this, I decided to build my own service: Spott.
With Spott you can cities, countries and political divisions by IP, coordinates and names (in more than 20 languages). For example you could search France by querying "Francia" (Spanish), "Frankreich" (German) or "法国" (Chinese). You can also find by autocomplete, to display suggestions as you type.
Data returned by Spott also includes useful information about the place, as coordinates, languages, timezone, currency, population and more...
Please give Spott a try at https://spott.dev
I'd be very happy to hear your comments and needs to keep building the best geographical tools available :)
