Fair questions. Straight answers.
How is Symt up to 10× cheaper?
Metered map APIs charge per call — typically $5–$10 per 1,000 for the core APIs — so your bill scales with your success. Symt charges for capacity: a flat subscription or a self-hosted license. At production volume the per-request cost lands at $0.40 per 1,000 or below on Growth, and effectively at your hardware cost on Sovereign. Most teams migrating real workloads see 60–90% savings.
What counts as a request?
One API call: a route, a geocode, an isochrone, a dispatch solve. Distance Matrix counts one request per call regardless of matrix size on self-hosted plans; on hosted plans, one request per 100 elements. Map tile loads are metered separately on Free and unlimited on every paid plan.
Is the compatibility mode really a drop-in?
For directions, distance matrix, and geocoding, yes: point your existing client at api.symt.ai/compat, keep your request parameters, and read the same response shape. Migration guides in the docs cover the edge cases, and the console diff-tester replays your real traffic against both providers side by side.
What does Enterprise Sovereign include?
The complete Symt platform — every API, the tile server, styles, SDKs, the admin console, and data pipelines — packaged for your Kubernetes or bare-metal environment. Licensing is a flat annual fee sized by deployment, not usage. Air-gapped deployments receive quarterly signed data bundles; connected ones update continuously.
Can I store and cache results?
Yes. Unlike metered providers, Symt places no restrictions on caching, storing, or building derived datasets from API results. Your geocodes, matrices, and matched traces are yours — including for training your own models.
Which regions does the hosted service run in?
Managed regions in the GCC and Europe today, with data pinned to the region you select. If you need a region we don’t list — or a network we could never reach — that’s exactly what Enterprise Sovereign is for.
