chargealong.io
Wraps an EV charging-site API to find nearby chargers, fetch full details for a single charging site, list charging networks by country, and look up places with coordinates for searching around.

Public EV charging sites in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, with their plugs, power, price, network and access. Use find_chargers for what is nearest a coordinate, which is the usual question, and narrow it with min_kw, plugs and network when the question does; use search_places first when there is a suburb name but no coordinate; use get_charger to read one site in full, with its connectors and how to get in; use list_networks for who operates chargers in a country. No key and no account: this is free to call. Every answer carries the page's URL and the date the record was last checked, so cite the page and say when it was checked. A charging site's status matters: only active sites are worth sending a driver to.
