// QUESTIONS
What is Atlas Chugged?
A free YouTube viewer with a live map. Paste a YouTube link, the video plays, and the map flies to every place the speaker mentions, the moment they say it. No account, no login.
How do I see every place mentioned in a YouTube video on a map?
Paste the video URL above and press Chug. AI listens to the whole video and returns every place with a timestamp and coordinates. The map then follows the video as it plays.
Is it free?
Yes. Free, no account. New videos have a fair-use daily limit per person; already-analyzed videos are unlimited and instant.
How does it work?
One AI call (Google Gemini) watches the YouTube video directly. No transcript scraping. It extracts every mappable mention: countries, cities, seas, borders, pipelines, even specific ports and oil fields, each with the second it was spoken. The map syncs to the playhead.
What videos work best?
Anything where people talk about the world: geopolitics briefings, history lectures, travel vlogs, news analysis. It keeps up with Yakko's World, so your lecture is fine.
How accurate is it?
96% of consensus place mentions in a 5-video benchmark, with coordinates precise down to individual ports and facilities. Obscure or historic names occasionally miss.
Can I share a mapped video?
Yes. Every video gets a permanent link. It opens instantly for the next person because analyses are cached forever.
Does it store my data?
No accounts, no personal data. The only thing stored is the map analysis of each public YouTube video.
