Making location APIs simple and affordable.

Location Service was born from a simple frustration: why should developers pay premium prices for basic location functionality? Why should setting up maps and address validation require weeks of complex infrastructure work?

We believe every developer should have access to reliable, affordable location APIs without the complexity of managing AWS infrastructure or the high costs of traditional providers like Google Maps.

Our mission is to level the playing field by providing enterprise-grade location services at startup-friendly prices, backed by the reliability of AWS infrastructure.

Mehdi is a software engineer with extensive experience in cloud architecture and scalable application development. Having worked with AWS infrastructure and location services across multiple projects, he experienced firsthand the complexity and cost challenges that developers face.

Frustrated by expensive APIs, complex setup processes, and unpredictable billing, Mehdi decided to build the location service he wished existed. Drawing from his background in software engineering and cloud architecture, he created Location Service to bridge the gap between enterprise-grade reliability and developer-friendly simplicity.

From initial concept to implementation, documentation, and this website, Mehdi has built every aspect of Location Service with modern development practices and AI-assisted tools like Amazon Q, enabling rapid iteration and focus on delivering exceptional value.
