FAQ

What is MeetSpot?

MeetSpot is a smart meeting point recommendation system that helps groups find the fairest place to meet. Whether it's a business meeting, dinner with friends, or a study session, it quickly finds the right venue.

How many people can use it at once?

Supports 2-10 participant locations. The system calculates the optimal midpoint based on everyone's positions.

Which cities are supported?

Currently covers 350+ cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, and more. Powered by Amap data and continuously expanding.

What types of venues can I search?

Supports cafes, restaurants, libraries, KTV, gyms, escape rooms, and more. You can also search multiple types simultaneously (e.g., 'cafe + restaurant').

How does it ensure fairness?

The system uses a geometric center algorithm to ensure every participant's distance to the meeting point is within a reasonable range — no one has to travel much farther than others.

How are results ranked?

Results are ranked by a comprehensive algorithm considering rating, distance, and user requirements. Venues with high ratings, close to the center, and matching special needs are prioritized.

Can I use abbreviations?

Yes! The system has 60+ built-in university alias mappings. For example, 'PKU' is automatically recognized as 'Peking University.' Landmark names like 'Guomao' and 'Oriental Pearl' are also supported.

Is it free? Do I need to sign up?

Completely free, no registration required. Just enter addresses and get recommendations instantly.

How fast are the recommendations?

The AI Agent goes through a complete 5-step reasoning process: parse address → calculate midpoint → search nearby → GPT-4o scoring → generate recommendation. Single theme: 5-8s, dual theme: 8-12s, complex Agent mode: 15-30s.

How is this different from Google/Apple Maps?

Maps search 'near me,' MeetSpot searches 'between us.' We first calculate the fair midpoint using spherical geometry, then recommend top venues there. This is a capability that standard map apps don't offer.

What does AI Agent mean?

MeetSpot isn't a simple search tool — it's an AI Agent with a complete 5-step reasoning chain. It uses GPT-4o for multi-dimensional scoring (distance, rating, parking, ambiance), and you can see how the AI 'thinks' at every step — fully transparent and explainable.
