MapLog · AI-native iPhone app
Your real life, understood.
MapLog continually understands the photos and videos that make up your life—and turns them into maps, personal films, and new ways to share and discover what is real.

Phones helped us record life.
AI can help us understand it.Skill · Illuminate
Your life becomes a map of its own.
MapLog understands the location already carried by your photos and videos. Countries, cities, and landmark areas illuminate automatically—and achievements keep growing with the life you live.









Real location context, resolved at the right geographic scale.
No route drawing · Geographic areas illuminate from photo locations
Skill · Create
From moments to a film that feels like you.
MapLog understands what happened, chooses what matters, directs the sequence, and renders a finished short film. New experiences can become stories now; years of memories can become stories again.

Skill · Share & Discover
Real life, worth discovering.
Discover stories that begin in someone’s real photos and videos. Place grounds each story; MapLog looks at the quality of the content and how beautifully it is expressed—not how popular it already is.
Location is context. The lived experience and the way it is expressed are what make a story worth discovering.

Privacy & ownership
Your life stays yours.
MapLog is designed around a clear boundary: your personal media belongs to you. We minimize access, keep precise location private, and create on your device.
Original media remains inside this boundary by default.
Only the permissions and media metadata needed for the feature you choose.
Shared location stays at country, city, or landmark-area level. Exact coordinates stay private.
Your source photos and videos are not uploaded or retained by MapLog by default.
Film generation and rendering happen on your device, close to your personal library.
Optional cloud backup starts only after you request it and explicitly confirm.
You keep ownership of your photos, videos, and the stories created from them.
A growing AI companion
Your life keeps growing. MapLog grows with it.
Maps, personal films, and discovery are the first Skills. MapLog is built to keep learning how to help you understand, create, and find value in the life you already live.
