Perplexity

Solve complex routing problems in chat

The `calculate_route` tool gives you turn-by-turn directions. Just ask Claude for the fastest way to drive from A to B, or a simple walking path. For logistics, you can solve vehicle routing problems with the `route_planner` tool to optimize for dozens of stops. Then you can scale that up. `calculate_route_matrix` lets you check travel times between many origins and destinations at once. It's perfect for figuring out which driver is closest to a pickup, without leaving your chat window.

Turn messy addresses into clean data

Stop guessing coordinates. The `geocode_search` tool turns any address into a precise lat/long pair. If you have a coordinate but need an address, just use `geocode_reverse`. Claude's conversational flow works great with `geocode_autocomplete`. As you type a partial address in your prompt, your agent can suggest complete ones. This tightens the feedback loop when you're cleaning up a messy list of locations.

Your Geoapify MCP Server for spatial analysis

This MCP Server brings real spatial analysis into your chat. Use `calculate_isoline` to find out how far you can get from a point in 15 minutes. It's a quick way to visualize delivery zones or service areas. You can also work directly with geographic data. The `geometry_operation` tool performs buffers and intersections on GeoJSON shapes. Ask Claude to find which of your service areas overlap, and it will just give you the answer.
