Mapbox is an American provider of custom online maps for websites and applications such as Foursquare, Lonely Planet, the Financial Times, The Weather Channel, Instacart, and Strava.[3] Since 2010, it has rapidly expanded the niche of custom maps, as a response to the limited choice offered by map providers such as Google Maps.[3]
By 2020, Mapbox switched to a proprietary software license for most of the software it previously maintained as open source.[4] As of October 2020, Mapbox had a valuation of $1 billion.[5]
