Overview

Turn any travel article into a visual route in one click.

Reading a travel blog? "We started at Montmartre, then walked to Sacré-Cœur…" Stop switching tabs to Google Maps. Click the Map-My-Read icon, hit Scan for Locations, and every place mentioned in the article appears as a numbered list — in the order the author visited them.

What it does
🗺️ AI-Powered Location Extraction: Uses Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano to intelligently extract locations
📍 Numbered Markers: Displays locations in the order they appear in the article
🔍 Smart Detection: AI recognizes cities, landmarks, neighborhoods, regions, and any geographical references
📊 OpenStreetMap Integration: View locations on free, open-source OpenStreetMap
🌍 Works on Any Content: Detects locations in articles, blogs, and pages with geo tags
📤 Multiple Export Options: Export to Google Maps or OpenStreetMap
⚡ Instant Analysis: Quickly verify if the author's route makes sense or if locations are far apart
🤖 Fallback Detection: Uses pattern-based extraction when AI is unavailable

How to use
Open any travel article, blog post, or news story mentioning places
Click the Map-My-Read icon in your toolbar
The side panel opens — click Scan for Locations
See all locations listed in order of appearance
Click any location to view it on OpenStreetMap, or click Export to Google Maps for a full route

Works great for
Planning a trip from someone else's travel blog
Verifying whether a suggested route makes geographic sense
Quickly mapping all places mentioned in a travel guide
Spotting how far apart recommended locations actually are

Privacy
All text analysis runs locally in your browser using Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano model. No page content is ever sent to external servers. The only outbound requests are the Google Maps or OpenStreetMap links you explicitly click.
