Interactive Community Maps, Branded Your Way
Transform lists of places, static PDF maps, and dull Google Maps into an interactive experience that inspires exploration and boosts engagement. Places gives you a customizable, embeddable map platform for your community.
Maps are hard to get right. Places can help.
Traditional solutions
- Lists of places that lack geographic context and make exploration feel flat
- Static PDF maps that are outdated as soon as they're published and work poorly digitally
- Generic Google Map embeds with weak design and limited functionalities
- Interactive maps that invite exploration
- Easily import and edit your places
- Set the design that matches your identity
- Invite editors to contribute to your map
- Easily add events to make your map feel alive
- Automatic translation of your content
- Designed to function well on any device
- Optimized for SEO and AI search with structured data
Places.nu has simply solved a challenge we’ve had in Arendal for many years: the need for an up-to-date event calendar combined with a good, clear map. What matters most is how easy the platform is to use. That means organisers actually use it, and events end up on one shared platform that benefits the whole city.
Places is an incredibly important tool and a great collaboration partner for the Norwegian Sauna Society. The platform helps our members get strong visibility both within the network and to users in Norway and internationally. For us, the combination has been especially important: we keep central control over the community, while participants create and edit their own places and events on the map. Places is an agile, intuitive, and efficient platform! I truly believe many other organizations could benefit from using Places as a platform for their networks and activities.
