Map experts on a mission to make animated maps for everyone.
Mappi Studio is built by product designers and UI/UX engineers who have shipped map applications used by millions. We took everything we learned at scale and packed it into a browser-based tool that anyone can use to create cinematic animated map videos in minutes.
A small team. A lot of map experience.
We have spent years designing, building, and scaling map products at some of the world’s largest tech companies. Mappi is what happens when that experience meets a simple goal: make great map animations easy.
- 10+ yearsDesigning and shipping map products
- MillionsOf users reached through map apps we’ve built
- 100%Browser-based, no install, no learning curve
Make beautiful, accurate map animations accessible to everyone.
Animated maps used to require expensive software, motion design skills, and hours of keyframing. We believe that if you can search for a place, you should be able to turn it into a stunning animated map video. Mappi removes the friction so creators, journalists, educators, and brands can focus on the story, not the tooling.
Deep expertise in maps, product design, and UI/UX.
Maps are one of the hardest product surfaces to get right. Performance, geospatial accuracy, visual design, and intuitive interactions all have to work together. We have spent our careers solving these exact problems at scale.
Product design at scale
We have led product design on consumer and enterprise map products with millions of users. We know how to take complex geospatial features and turn them into interfaces anyone can use.
UI/UX engineering
Every interaction in Mappi is hand-crafted by senior UI/UX engineers. From smooth camera flights to frame-perfect timeline controls, we obsess over the small details that make a tool feel great.
Large-scale map applications
We have built and scaled map applications at some of the largest tech companies in the world. We understand what it takes to render real-world geography quickly, accurately, and beautifully.
Video rendering pipeline
Mappi’s render pipeline is engineered for frame-accurate output up to 4K. Every animation is exported with the same quality you would expect from a professional motion graphics tool.
Geospatial data & cartography
GPS-accurate routes, vector tiles, country and region boundaries, custom map themes. We work with the same geospatial primitives professional cartographers and GIS engineers use.
Creator-first workflow
We design Mappi the way creators actually work. Search, drag, customize, export. No timelines to fight, no plugins to install, no render farms to manage.
We watched creators struggle to tell map stories.
For years we watched YouTubers, journalists, educators, and travel storytellers spend hours wrestling with motion graphics tools just to animate a simple route or highlight a region on a map. The tooling was either too expensive, too technical, or simply not designed with maps in mind.
Coming from teams that had built map experiences for millions of users, we knew this was a solvable problem. The hard parts (performance, geospatial accuracy, beautiful map themes, smooth camera animations) could be solved once and given to everyone.
Mappi is the tool we wish had existed when we were on those teams. It is the result of years of hard-won experience designing and engineering maps at scale, distilled into something simple enough that anyone can use it on their phone or laptop.
What we believe in
A few principles guide every decision we make at Mappi Studio.
Craft over shortcuts
We sweat the details: typography, motion curves, color palettes, geospatial accuracy. Maps deserve to look as good as the stories they tell.
Accessible to everyone
Powerful tools should not require a steep learning curve. Mappi is built for first-time creators and seasoned editors alike.
Speed and simplicity
No installs, no plugins, no render farms. You should be able to go from idea to exported map animation in minutes, in your browser.
Trust and transparency
We use real geospatial data, render frame-accurate videos, and never lock you into a watermark. What you see is what you export.
Built by map experts. Designed for everyone.
Whether you are a YouTuber, journalist, educator, brand, or hobbyist, Mappi gives you the same map animation power that used to require a full motion design team.
