How it works

From a prompt to a map that’s yours

01

Write a prompt

Plain words in one box: a place and what you want to see on it. No data to bring, no tools to learn.

02

Get a real map

A live map you can pan and zoom — styled, labelled, on a real basemap. Not a picture of one.

03

Edit with words

Every map keeps its own prompt box. Bigger labels, a different colour, one more place — say it and it redraws.

04

Take it with you

Send a link that opens for anyone. Put it on your own page with no GetMap badge. Download the page, the data or a picture.
