AutoNavi Software Co., Ltd. (simplified Chinese: 高德软件有限公司; traditional Chinese: 高德軟件有限公司; pinyin: Gāodé Ruǎnjiàn Yǒuxiàn Gōngsī) is a Chinese web mapping, navigation and location-based services provider, founded in 2001. One of its subsidiary companies, Beijing Mapabc Co. Ltd. (www.mapabc.com), is a map website in China. AutoNavi was acquired by Alibaba Group in 2014. It offers its map services at Amap.com and as the Amap mobile app. It is known as Gaode in Chinese.

AutoNavi provides mapping data of China and Taiwan for Apple Maps, which was introduced with iOS 6. Previously this was the only method of viewing their map in English, and was only available when the Apple device was located within China. As of 2025 however, there is a standalone app called Amap available for Android, iOS and HarmonyOS. The app is available in English, traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese.

AutoNavi previously provided mapping data to Google from 2006, although this has not been updated for some years.

AutoNavi's own map application was the top mobile map app in China in 2012, with over 100 million users.
