The Problem
How travelers lose great places
Bookmarks
An infinite list with no map, no addresses, and no way to filter by location
Screenshots
No searchable info — just images in your camera roll you'll never scroll back to
Google Maps
Manual search for every single place — assuming you even remember the name
Notes apps
A messy text dump that you forget about by the time you actually need it
The Solution
How Hold My Pin works for travelers
Save places from any travel content
See a gorgeous hotel on a Reel? A hidden waterfall on Threads? Tap share — AI extracts the exact place with name, address, and category in seconds.
Organize by trip, city, or vibe
Group saved places into collections like "Japan 2026", "Best Brunch in Paris", or "Romantic Getaways". Filter by category — restaurants, hotels, cafes, attractions — to find what you need.
Access your map offline
Traveling without Wi-Fi? Your saved places are available offline. Pull up your map on the streets of Tokyo, in a Bali rice terrace, or on a Greek island ferry — no connection needed.
Share maps with travel companions
Planning a group trip? Share your curated map as a link. Everyone sees the same pins, can add their own, and the trip plan builds itself collaboratively.
You're scrolling Instagram before bed and see a stunning Reel: a hidden courtyard restaurant in Rome, tucked behind a faded wooden door on a cobblestone street. The creator doesn't tag the location — they just say “the best cacio e pepe I've ever had.” You screenshot it and keep scrolling.
Two months later, you're standing in Rome. That screenshot is buried in a folder of 200 others. You can't remember the creator's name. You have no address. The restaurant might as well not exist.
The problem every traveler knows
Social media is the most powerful travel discovery tool ever created. Instagram and Threads surface hidden gems that never appear in guidebooks — places recommended by real people, with real video proof of what to expect. But none of these platforms were designed for trip planning.
- Instagram bookmarks are an infinite list with no map, no addresses, and no way to filter by city
- Screenshots give you no searchable information — just an image in your camera roll
- Google Maps requires you to manually search for each place and save it — assuming you even know the name
- Notes apps become a messy text dump that you forget about by the time you travel
How Hold My Pin works for travelers
Hold My Pin bridges the gap between discovery and action. When you see a place you want to visit on any social platform, share the link to Hold My Pin. AI reads the caption, geotags, hashtags, and visual context to extract the exact place — complete with name, address, and category.
The place appears as a pin on your personal map. Not a bookmark. Not a screenshot. A real pin with a real address that you can navigate to when you arrive in the city.
Save from any platform
It doesn't matter where you found it. An Instagram Reel of a hidden beach in Bali, a Threads post about street food in Bangkok, a carousel of a rooftop bar in New York — tap share and the place is on your map in under 10 seconds.
Organize by trip or destination
Create collections for upcoming trips: “Japan spring 2026”, “Italian coast road trip”, “Weekend in Paris”. Your places are automatically categorized — restaurants, hotels, attractions, cafes — so you can filter by what you need when you need it.
Works without Wi-Fi
Your saved places are available offline. Pull up your map on the streets of Tokyo without hunting for a signal. Every pin, every address, every category — right there on your phone.
Share with travel companions
Planning a trip with friends or your partner? Share a collection link and everyone sees the same interactive map. Add places collaboratively — your group trip plan builds itself.

Create collections for each trip (e.g., "Bali honeymoon", "Tokyo solo trip"). You can also filter your entire map by city, category, or custom tags. Places are auto-categorized by AI, so restaurants, hotels, and attractions are sorted automatically.
