SafeGraph data is available through our Places API!

Use our GraphQL API to find the places you care about in a variety of ways:

Search for POI by location name, location type, address, radius, and more.
Drill in on a specific POI for more detailed information.

Here you can find:

Fundamental information on points of interest (POIs) such as location name, address, categories (broad and specific), open hours, and more
Geospatial coordinates
POI footprints that map the size and area of physical locations using polygons
Spatial hierarchy metadata on how different places relate to each other (ex: a store within a mall)
Coming soon: metrics on popular hours, popularity of POIs, and more
