What it is

BatchGeo turns spreadsheet data into interactive maps by geocoding locations and plotting them on Google Maps. Users can paste addresses, intersections, cities, states, postal codes, or coordinates, then group and filter results to explore geographic trends. Maps can use markers or boundaries and be saved for embedding on websites with HTML. The free tier supports maps with up to 250 rows; its plan also lists map saving for up to 30 days, up to 1000 geocoding per month, and up to 100 map views. Pro costs $99 a month and includes route optimization for up to 23 locations, Street View integration, and PDF, PNG, and KML exports. BatchGeo has a native iOS app for accessing maps, searching locations, filtering data, and getting driving directions; Android users are directed to mobile-optimized maps. Maps can be public, unlisted, subscription-accessible, or password-protected with Pro. BatchGeo notes technical users may still uncover hidden locations when address hiding is enabled.

BatchGeo in depth

Read the full write-up

Overview

BatchGeo turns pasted spreadsheet records into maps using Google Maps geocoding and display. It is a sensible fit for teams that need to visualize location data without GIS or programming skills, but its free tier is tightly capped and maps require manual refreshing.

Key features

BatchGeo accepts addresses, intersections, cities, states, postal codes, and coordinates. Users can plot these as markers or boundary maps, then group and filter records to examine geographic patterns. That makes it useful for practical tasks such as mapping sales coverage, real estate listings, or store locations; it is less suited to workflows that depend on maps updating automatically, since refreshes are manual.

Saved maps can be embedded on websites through iframe code. Visibility can be public, unlisted, subscription-user-only, or password-protected with Pro. Address hiding is not a reliable security boundary: technically capable viewers may still uncover hidden locations. BatchGeo stores map data on its servers; the company says Pro traffic is encrypted and its servers are patched, firewalled, and periodically scanned and audited.

Pro adds Google Maps Street View, PDF, PNG, and KML exports, and route optimization for up to 23 locations. These are useful additions for sharing maps in other formats or planning a short route, though the route cap makes it a poor fit for larger routing jobs. The free tier permits maps of up to 250 data rows; the plan also caps geocoding and map views.

Pricing

BatchGeo uses a freemium model. The Free Plan has no listed price and allows maps to be saved for up to 30 days, up to 1,000 geocoding operations per month, and up to 100 map views. Its 250-row map cap also limits the size of a dataset. It suits occasional, small-scale mapping, but the short retention period and usage ceilings make it a weak choice for maps that must remain available or receive regular traffic.

BatchGeo Pro costs $99 a month. It includes up to 100,000 markers per map, password protection, 10 users, Street View, and PDF, PNG, and KML exports. Pro is the practical choice for larger datasets, shared team access, or controlled map access; its monthly price is harder to justify for one-off maps that fit the free limits. No custom branding or API access is available.

Platforms

BatchGeo supports web, iOS, and Android. Its native iOS app lets users access maps, search locations, filter data, and get driving directions. Android users access mobile-optimized maps rather than a native Android app. The service also offers a support center with articles on map creation, map use, accounts, mobile features, and Pro features.

Who it's for

BatchGeo is best for people who need a direct route from spreadsheet locations to a shareable, filterable map without cartography, programming, or GIS training. Sales teams, real estate users, store-locator projects, and straightforward geographic analysis are natural fits. Look elsewhere if your workflow needs automatic data refresh, API access, custom branding, or extensive route optimization.

Pros and cons

Pros: Accepts several common location formats and offers marker and boundary maps, grouping, and filters, making spreadsheet-based geographic analysis accessible without specialist training.

Pros: Pro combines 10 included users, password protection, exports, and Street View, which can support teams that need to share and distribute maps.

Cons: Free maps are limited to 250 rows and are saved for up to 30 days, with further geocoding and view caps; small projects can outgrow the free tier quickly.

Cons: Manual refreshes leave maps out of sync until users update them, and address hiding does not guarantee that locations remain undiscoverable.

Cons: Pro route optimization is limited to 23 locations, and the service has no API access or custom branding.

Verdict

Choose BatchGeo if your priority is turning spreadsheet locations into a usable, filterable map without specialist mapping skills, especially when Pro exports, Street View, or password protection matter. Its manual refresh process, free-tier ceilings, and limited routing make it a poor fit for live data or more demanding mapping workflows.

Verdict

BatchGeo converts spreadsheet locations into maps with filtering, embedding, and mobile access. The free tier has row and usage limits, while Pro adds exports, Street View, and route optimization.
