Rapid (formerly RapiD) is a web-based modern editor for OpenStreetMap. Rapid integrates advanced mapping tools, authoritative geospatial open data, and cutting-edge technology to empower mappers at all levels to get started quickly, making accurate and fresh edits.

Rapid is an open source project developed by Meta. It originated as RapiD, a modified and forked version of the popular OSM editing tool, iD editor, with tools to add and edit map features generated by AI predictions. While initially designed as a tool to add roads, Rapid has subsequently been used to add buildings and various open data layers such as sidewalks, address points, and trees. Rapid includes validation checks (in addition to checks within iD) to detect potential errors.
