We spent 2 days on a waitlist page for an app you can't even use yet. Roast us.

mapsgpt.es — go ahead.

What it is: The easiest way to find spots in a hurry, or make long term plans. Ask for "romantic spot, dim lights, quiet enough to actually talk" instead of "bars near me." Group trip planning, imports your saved TikToks into a real map. Built on a geospatial model we trained ourselves.

Where we are: pre-launch, waitlist only.

What I'd love roasted specifically:

  1. The waitlist page itself does how does the design make you feel, or does it scream "all budget went to vibes, none to product"?
  2. The pitch
  3. The name situation: the site says MapsGPT, the product is called Elio. Yes, we know. Roast accordingly.

Beta testers wanted: social map app where you search in plain English and plan trips with friends

My brother and I are building MapsGPT mapsgpt.es — a map you can actually talk to.
Instead of "restaurants near me," you ask for what you want: "romantic spot for drinks, dim lights, quiet enough to talk" or "where do locals actually eat in DC Chinatown," and get real, rated places.

Waitlist is open now — early signups get in first when the beta drops. Fair warning: I put hella effort into the waitlist page itself, so poke around, there's an easter egg or two.

Would genuinely love to hear what "impossible" place-search you'd want it to handle. That's shaping what we build first.
