Features
Built to close the gap between discovery and visit
Every feature exists to solve one problem: you find incredible places online but never actually go.
No more lost screenshots
Share a link from any social app. AI reads the caption, geotags, and visual context to extract the exact place in seconds.
One map, every platform
Instagram Reels, Threads posts — doesn't matter where you found it. One link, one map.
Organized without effort
AI auto-categorizes every place: restaurants, cafes, bars, attractions, hotels. Filter, search, and find what you need.
Share entire trip plans
Group places into collections by trip, city, or vibe. Share them as a link — recipients see a full interactive map.
Works where Wi-Fi doesn't
Saved places available offline. Pull up your map on the streets of Tokyo without hunting for a signal.
Your map, your way
Apple Maps underneath. Your pins on top. Custom tags, notes, and filters to make the map truly yours.
How It Works
See it. Share it. Go.
See it.
Scrolling your feed and spot an incredible place? A ramen shop in Shibuya. A rooftop bar in Barcelona. A hidden beach in Bali.
Share it.
Tap the share button and select Hold My Pin. In under 10 seconds, AI reads the caption, geotags, and visual context to pinpoint the exact location.
Go.
The place lands on your map — with name, address, category, and the original post attached. Walk by it in three months? Your map remembers.

“I've been keeping a Google Doc of restaurant recs for 3 years. Shared every link to Hold My Pin and now I have an actual map. Should've done this ages ago.”

“The AI picked up a cafe that was only mentioned in a caption — 'this tiny coffee spot in Shimokitazawa' — and got the exact shop. Genuinely impressed.”

“Used it for a week in Lisbon. Every time I was in a new neighborhood I'd check my map — always had 2-3 saved places nearby. Actually visited them all.”
