Geocoding

Nominatim integrations

Connect Nominatim to any other app, or use it from your AI client over MCP. Nominatim is the OpenStreetMap geocoding service, turning place names and addresses into coordinates and back. Callers can forward-geocode a free-form query or structured address into latitude/longitude with a bounding box and address breakdown, reverse-geocode a coordinate pair into the nearest address, look up an OSM node, way or relation by its id, and constrain searches by country, viewbox or result limit. No credentials required.

Connect your AI client

Give your AI client this address.

https://mcp.apiant.ai

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Questions

Nominatim, answered

Is there a Nominatim MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Nominatim. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run Nominatim actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use Nominatim. Nothing to install.

What can your agent do in Nominatim?

Any of Nominatim's 3 actions, including Find address by OSM ID, Geocode address and Reverse geocode. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can I use Nominatim directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Nominatim two ways. Ask it to do something in Nominatim once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does.

Do I need to write code against the Nominatim API?

No. APIANT connects to the Nominatim API for you. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Nominatim triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Nominatim API documentation and adds it.

Which apps can Nominatim connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Nominatim with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
