TikTok → Map

Put the TikTok on a map.

You saved a video with eight restaurants in it and no addresses. Screenshot the slides or paste the caption, and every name comes back as a pin you can navigate to while you're standing on the street.

Or paste a caption — Instagram often needs either.

What you get back

TikTok: '5 CDMX taquerías that changed my life' + slide screenshots

Five names read off the video text, each matched to a venue with an address you can open in Maps:

  • El Vilsito Auto shop by day, al pastor by night
  • Tacos Los Cocuyos Centro, open past 3am
  • Taquería Orinoco Roma Norte, the chicharrón
  • El Turix Polanco, cochinita pibil only
  • Tacos El Güero Condesa, the suadero

How it works

Three steps, start to map

1

Start with the link

Paste the TikTok URL first. If you can read the caption without logging in, so can Arriv, and that's the whole job.

2

Screenshot the slides when it isn't

TikTok gates most posts from bots, though a screenshot always gets through. Grab the frames with the venue names and Arriv reads the text straight off the images.

3

Get pins with addresses

Each venue is matched to an address and dropped on a map, which is the difference between a name you half remember and a door you can walk through.

Why Arriv

What you get back

Text read off the video frames

The names usually live in the on-screen captions, so the OCR pass pulls them out of a screenshot without the link ever loading.

Several videos, one map

Import a few saved videos for the same city and they merge into one guide, since a place named in three of them only needs one pin.

The source stays linked

Each place remembers which video it came from, and rewatching it is one tap away.

It becomes a plan

Once mapped, the places group into days and share with whoever you're going with.

Questions

Frequently asked

How do I save places from a TikTok to a map?
Paste the video link first. TikTok blocks most automated reads, so if you get nothing back, screenshot the frames showing the venue names and drop those in. Arriv reads the text and matches each name to a real place with an address.
Why does it need a screenshot sometimes?
TikTok and Instagram keep post content behind a login, which is why pasting a link sometimes comes back with nothing useful attached. A screenshot gets the on-screen text every time, and it costs you a few seconds.
Can I import several videos into one trip?
Yes. Add them one after another into the same trip, and the places pool into a single map with the duplicates collapsed, which is how three food videos become one afternoon.
Does it work for cities outside the US?
Yes. Place matching runs on global venue data, and the Bangkok video comes back the same way the Austin one does, with an address on every pin.
