Our predictive technology auto-suggests addresses as the user types, narrowing results with each keystroke. This helps to improve data quality, UX and reduce failed deliveries.

About

PCA Predict is known for leading on many of the innovations that have happened in the data verification marketplace in the 16 years since it was founded. Having been the first to recognise and exploit the potential for using the internet to provide a centrally managed service to improve the cost and availability of the service that it provides, PCA Predict has, in recent years, led many of the significant changes to improve the ability to find addresses where the user may not know their postcode or ZIP code or where that information may not exist. The dynamic search based retrieval of address data, which considers every single key stroke in the query process and which makes allowances for typos, abbreviations and other mistakes, has been the key to unlocking the potential of the international markets. It is a fundamental change to the way to the usual “postcode to address” look up method works in the UK where everyone knows their postcode and a short list of addresses, which includes the correct address, is provided.   The search based method is particularly important in ecommerce where improving the user experience in the checkout process is a key benefit of the technology.
