How to Save and Reuse Locations with My POIs

Build a personal database of saved locations - name, address, coordinates, and logo - and drop them onto any map with one click. A Pro feature.

My POIs
Starbucks · Central
Chase · Camelback
CVS · 7th St

My POIs is a personal database of saved locations. Each POI stores a name, address, coordinates, and an optional logo, so you can reuse your most common tenants across every map with one click. This is a Pro feature.

Build your POI database

  1. Open the "My POIs" page from the main navigation.
  2. Click "Add POI" to create a new point of interest.
  3. Search for an address with Google Places autocomplete to auto-fill the address and coordinates.
  4. Name the POI descriptively, e.g. "Starbucks - Central Ave".
  5. Upload an optional logo so it's ready to place.
  6. Save — it's now available on all your maps. Edit, delete, or search your list anytime.

Use POIs in the editor

  1. Click "My POIs" in the editor sidebar to open your saved list.
  2. Browse or search by name.
  3. Click a POI to place it at its saved coordinates with its saved logo.
  4. Reposition if needed - it behaves like any other overlay (resize, style, leader lines, grouping).
  5. Save new POIs from the map — hover any business logo or image and click "Save as POI".
💡
Pro tip: Build a library of your most common tenants (Starbucks, Chase, CVS, Target) and you'll reuse them across many maps. Deleting a POI from your database does not remove it from maps where it was already placed.

Example: a reusable tenant library

A broker working one submarket saves Starbucks, Chase, CVS, and the local grocery anchor as POIs - each with its logo and exact coordinates. On the next three listings in that area, those tenants drop onto the map in one click each, turning a 20-minute research step into seconds.
