MapsGPT Product Information

Create A Custom Map With Pins In Seconds | MapsGPT is a map generation tool that converts natural language prompts into customizable, pin-filled digital maps in moments. Integrated with Proxi, it lets you revisit, edit, and share maps created from prompts, enabling rapid trip planning, event ideas, and location-based explorations. The platform supports multiple input styles and transformation options to turn plain text, images, spreadsheets, or URLs into interactive maps.


How it works

  1. Describe your map prompt (e.g., center location, areas of interest, vibe, or specific venues).
  2. The tool renders an editable map with pins, paths, and labels based on your text input.
  3. Save, share, or export an editable copy of your map for collaboration or future reference.

If the initial submission fails, you can retry, adjust the prompt, or switch to alternative mapping methods (image-to-map, spreadsheet-to-map, or URL-to-map).


Input Methods

  • Text Prompt: Describe the center, search areas, and vibe to generate a map.
  • Image-to-Map: Turn PNGs, JPGs, and PDFs into interactive maps.
  • Spreadsheet-to-Map: Convert tabular data into pins and routes instantly.
  • URL-to-Map: Transform web content (blogs, travel sites) into mapped experiences.

Use Cases

  • Plan a day trip for a specific group (e.g., foodies, families).
  • Find coffee/cocktail spots, first-date ideas, kid-friendly activities near a location.
  • Create thematic maps (artsier, edgy, spooky, boomer-friendly, healthy vibe) around a city or neighborhood.
  • Visualize historical places or points of interest near a defined area.
  • Generate maps for events, tours, or social outings with editable copies for collaboration.

Output and Sharing

  • You’ll receive an editable copy of your map for further customization.
  • Maps load quickly and can be shared via link or exported for offline use.
  • The platform may display status messages (e.g., “Your map will load in just a sec.”) and offers retry options if submissions fail.

How It Works (Key Features)

  • Convert natural language prompts into interactive maps with pins.
  • Revisit and edit previously created maps by logging into your Proxi account.
  • Multiple input modalities: text prompts, image-to-map, spreadsheet-to-map, and URL-to-map.
  • Instant rendering with editable copies for collaboration and planning.
  • Plan trips, identify venues, and map points of interest around a central area.
  • Supports a variety of search criteria: area of interest, continent, city, neighborhood, or country.

Safety and Accuracy Considerations

  • Maps are generated from aggregated data; always verify details with locations before making plans.
  • The service provides editable maps but does not guarantee real-time accuracy for all points.

Quick Start

  • Enter a center area and prompts like “coffee and cocktail bars near [city]” or “first date ideas near [neighborhood].”
  • Choose your input method (text, image, spreadsheet, URL).
  • Generate your map and refine pins, categories, and labels as needed.
