What MapQuest does in ChatGPT
The MapQuest plugin brings driving directions and place search into ChatGPT. Give it two addresses and it works out the route, with the arrival time adjusted for current traffic. Accidents and roadworks along the way are pointed out before you set off.
It can also search for restaurants, shops, services and other places around an address and tell you how far each one is. If you have coordinates, it can find the nearest address, and it can turn an address into exact coordinates.
For errands or deliveries, you can give MapQuest a list of stops. It figures out the order that wastes the least driving, so you can plan a run of several places in one go instead of guessing. It also tells you how long the whole run should take with the stops in that order.
Who it is for
- Drivers planning a trip
- Couriers and people running errands with several stops
- Anyone looking for places near an address
