I'm looking forward to trying this out and building something with this!

It looks like they're aggregating data from OSM: https://data.iggy.cloud/datasets

That's quite exciting. Having worked extensively with OSM and trying to build something useful out of their data, it's historically been a huge pain to do. I'm more than happy to pay them to make my life easier.

I'm interested in seeing how they add new and interesting datasets. I expect there's going to be some difficulty with keeping things interesting and useful, while making sure it's still simple.

You're right that there's a ton of OSM data that most people can't use. We want to change that and give access to so much more. Follow us on Twitter at https://mobile.twitter.com/askiggyapp for lots more code samples this week and demos to come!
