Scout AI: Find Photo Spots by Describing the Shot

Describe the photo you want, like light, mood and scene, and Scout AI finds real spots to match, with a reason for each.
01

Describe the photo, not the place

“Moody portrait spots in Tokyo with cover if it rains.” “Calm water for reflections near me.” Light, mood, subject and city all help.
02

Get real spots back

Scout AI answers with spots from the LensScape map: name, distance and why it fits. Up to 20 at a time.
03

Check them on the map

Tap See on map to pin every result, or open a spot for photos, today’s golden and blue hour, and directions.
04

Save the keepers

Save a spot to your lists, so it’s there on your phone and the web.
05

Ask a follow-up

“Which of these is best at sunset?” “Any closer to downtown?” The chat keeps the context.
06

Thin area? It looks for more

If a place has few spots, Scout AI can queue a search of OpenStreetMap. We review new spots before they appear, so check back.

Questions

Does Scout AI make up places?
No. It only answers with spots on the LensScape map.
