Explore guide

Use Explore chat

Chat in the context of the selected collection and current map area, then act on suggested places safely.

Sign in for Explore place discovery and saving, using the selected collection and map area as context. Signed-out users can still ask product-help questions and receive Help links; that does not grant private access or perform signed-in actions.

Explore chat helps find and evaluate places in the context of the collection and map you are currently using.

Sign in for place discovery

Sign in to search for places through Explore chat and save them to your collections. This keeps planning conversations connected to the correct account and collection.

You can still type a product-help question while signed out, such as "How do I create a collection?" The assistant can explain the workflow and link to Help. A help answer does not grant access to private collections or perform a signed-in action for you.

The Explore chat panel, with an opening message offering to search and map places, a suggested prompt, and a message box at the bottom.
Explore chat can search, map the results, and save your picks to a collection. The suggestion above the box is a starting point, not a limit.

Understand chat context

Each collection has its own conversation. Bucket List is also private to the signed-in account, so its messages and places are not shared with another user.

The assistant can use:

  • The selected collection and its saved places
  • The visible map area
  • The place currently being discussed
  • The current conversation

Switching collections switches threads. Returning to a collection restores that collection's recent conversation.

Ask useful questions

Ask for places near the visible map, compare saved options, or request an introduction to the area. Include constraints such as neighborhood, budget, dietary needs, mobility, or time of day.

Suggested place pills open the map result and place details. Review the result before saving it; an assistant suggestion is not a reservation or a guarantee that details are current.

Manage a conversation

You can delete an Explore chat thread when you no longer need it. Inspiration prompts remain visible until you start typing a new message, even when an older thread has loaded.
