The DataFabric site: access maps, routing, KYC verification and user data through one API platform.

DataFabric sells itself the way it is used: one platform, four APIs, and documentation you can read before you sign anything.

What you get

Four API products, one integration.

Each is a set of documented REST endpoints. Use the ones you need and ignore the rest.

  1. Routes & directions

    Optimised routes with turn-by-turn directions for driving, walking and cycling.

    https://datafabric.hiroshiaki.com/api/v1

    GET /routes/directions?origin=37.7749,-122.4194&destination=34.0522,-118.2437

    {  "status": "success",  "data": {    "distance": "382.5 km",    "duration": "3h 45m",    "steps": [...]  }}

  2. Maps & tiles

    Map tiles to render in your interface, and static map images for pages that do not need a live map.

    https://datafabric.hiroshiaki.com/api/v1

    GET /maps/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}

    // the tile image itself, ready to// render in your interface.//// GET /maps/static for the pages// that do not need a live map.

  3. KYC verification

    Document OCR, document checks, watchlist screening and a risk score. You verify a customer without building the pipeline yourself.

    https://datafabric.hiroshiaki.com/api/v1

    POST /kyc/checks

    {  "status": "success",  "result": "approved",  "risk_score": "low",  "verification_details": {    "document_valid": true,    "identity_verified": true,    "watchlist_clear": true  }}

  4. User data

    Encrypted storage for the user records your app needs, read and written through the same API.

    https://datafabric.hiroshiaki.com/api/v1

    GET /users/{id}

    // the user record your app stored,// encrypted at rest and returned// through the same key.//// PATCH /users/{id} to write it back.

Day to day

Plain REST, webhooks for the slow parts, and a dashboard that shows what you used.

  1. A REST API that returns JSON

    Plain HTTP endpoints that return JSON. Anything that can make a web request can call them, and every endpoint is in the docs.

  2. Webhooks for the slow parts

    A webhook fires when an asynchronous job such as a KYC check finishes, so nothing has to poll.

  3. A dashboard of what you used

    Monitoring and usage analytics, updated as each call comes in. Open it whenever you want to know what you have used so far.
