Thanks for posting! I'm Lindsay, the CEO of Iggy.
I was a Data Scientist at Airbnb for ~5 years and was shocked at how little we knew and leveraged about location in our product and models. I had done a lot of GIS work in grad school and knew it could be better, so I left last year to start Iggy. Turns out Airbnb wasn't the only company to struggle with this-- so many other cos in travel, real estate and insurance have trouble building, maintaining and leveraging geographic and location data. We've been working with a few in stealth, and are excited to now open up our APIs for broader use.
I am happy to answer any questions folks may have. In the meantime:
