Anyone seriously considering an international move — remote workers, families, retirees, founders. You know you want to leave; you just haven't found where you'd actually feel at home.

How is this different from just asking ChatGPT?

ChatGPT gives you an opinion. We give you a score from open data: climate normals, OECD tax tables, WHO healthcare index, Ookla internet speeds. Every number has a source. The quiz learns your trade-offs and ranks accordingly — no generic 'Portugal is great' advice.

How do you score countries?

Ten dimensions (climate, cost, tax, visa, healthcare, safety, language, internet, family, banking), each scored 0–10 from open data. We combine them geometrically, meaning one bad dimension really matters — it can't be averaged away. Hard deal-breakers exclude a country entirely.

Will more countries get a detailed map like Italy?

Yes. Italy is our proof of concept — 8,000 places, comune-level climate, prices, internet, demographics. Portugal, Spain, and UAE are next. Subscribe in the atlas to be notified per country.

Climate normals are 1991–2020 (the WMO 30-year standard — the most meaningful baseline). Tax, visa, and language data refreshes annually. Every number shows its source and year inline — nothing is hidden.

Bulk import — turning a list of addresses into pins

You have ten or twenty flats open across browser tabs. Bulk import is the dialog that swallows them in one go, looks each address up, and drops a pin on the right point of the map for every one that resolves.

Where to find it

Look for the Bulk import button in the top toolbar of the map. The dialog has two input modes: plain text (one address per line) and CSV (with header row). Choose the mode that matches what you have, paste, and submit.

Bulk import dialog with two tabs (Addresses and CSV), a textarea showing three sample addresses, and Cancel / Import buttons. — Bulk import dialog on the Addresses tab. The CSV tab takes the same data with address, price and URL columns.

How it works

Plain-text mode

One address per line. The dialog feeds each line to a geocoding service in order. A successful match becomes a pin with the address as its title and no URL.

CSV mode

Up to 3 columns are read: address (required), price, and url. The address goes to the geocoder. The URL ends up on the pin as a clickable link. The price lands in the pin's notes, prefixed with whatever currency symbol you typed.

Pace and limits

The cap per submission is 200 rows. The geocoder is the public Nominatim endpoint, which asks callers to stay under 1 s request per second. So even at the cap, 200 rows take roughly three to four minutes to resolve fully. A progress bar shows where the run currently is.

What to keep in mind

Geocoding is fuzzy. An address like "via Roma 12" without a city resolves to the most prominent match. That is often not the one you wanted. Adding the city, region, or postcode dramatically improves accuracy. The dialog flags every row whose match confidence is below a threshold, so you can review before keeping the pin.

Bulk import requires sign-in for the same reason pins do: the pins land in your account. The button is greyed out otherwise.

Frequently asked

What is the safest format for the CSV?

A header row with three columns, named exactly address, price, url. Wrap values containing commas in double quotes. Use UTF-8 encoding. Excel's default export usually works.

Why are some addresses skipped?

Either the geocoder could not find a confident match, or the resolved coordinate fell outside a supported country. The result panel lists the skipped rows with the reason next to each.

Can I undo a bulk import?

Not as a single action. Each pin is independent; open them on the map and delete one by one. If you imported a lot and changed your mind, the fastest path is the feedback button. We can revert by import batch ID on our side.

Does the dialog deduplicate pins?

It deduplicates inside one import run by exact address. It does not check against pins that already exist in your account — re-importing the same list will create duplicates.
