Atlist vs BatchGeo

Atlist is a web tool for creating interactive Google Maps for store locators, world maps, itineraries and data visualizations. Maps can use styled markers, groups, polygons, circles, lines, region shapes and routes. Marker pop-ups may contain HTML, buttons and photo galleries. Spreadsheet imports are supported, and a connected Google Sheet can automatically supply new markers. Visitors can search for nearby markers by location or address, browse a customizable marker list and filter by tags. Paid plans allow public URLs, website embedding and password protection. Workspaces support collaboration; the first member outside a paid plan is free, while additional members cost $5 per month. Atlist says it provides Google Maps Platform API access, so users do not need their own API key or Google Account. Maps can be created and viewed in mobile browsers, but there is no iOS or Android app. The free plan provides five maps and 50 markers per map, without sharing or embedding. Paid plans start at $15.00 per month; Basic costs $15.00 monthly and Pro costs $25.00 monthly.

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.
