Cool, thanks. Pricing looks good. I'm not able to check out your product because your service appears to be down right now...? $ curl 'https://tiles.stadiamaps.com/styles/alidade_smooth.json' <html><body><h1>502 Bad Gateway</h1> The server returned an invalid or incomplete response. </body></html> Tried from multiple locations to make sure.

  Yeah… :( Very unfortunate timing there. We had a cache server wedge, and the failover mechanism didn't detect it quickly enough. We've diverted traffic manually and are working on bringing the bad region back into the mix after it went down. Things should be working again now, at least.

Really unfortunate that Google Stadia has a name collision with y'all. :( You don't even show up in the "stadia" search results without the term "maps" added. If it wasn't scary and expensive to sue Google for a name change, this seems like a case of Google (probably unwittingly) crushing your brand and trademark with their own. Have y'all noticed a decrease in search traffic (or general brand/product awareness) since Google Stadia launched? And if so, do you plan to do anything about it? Really cool product! Your maps look slick and super clean. :)

  Thanks for the kind words! We appreciate it. > Have y'all noticed a decrease in search traffic (or general brand/product awareness) since Google Stadia launched? We've actually seen an uptick because of badly placed keyword searches for Stadia. We also aren't exactly sure the best way to counter it, but we're working on figuring out the best way. We don't really have a legal resource, either, given we didn't have a trademark before Google Stadia came along.
