Flexibility to evolve

Integrate with Mapbox Agents or connect AI tools, agents, and LLMs directly to Mapbox APIs.

Innovation partners

Team up with Mapbox to create the next generation of location-aware AI experiences.

Mapbox Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server

Equip AI agents and LLM-powered applications with beautiful maps, geospatial data and skills.

Geospatial intelligence for AI

Most AI systems lack spatial reasoning and fail at tasks that involve geographic proximity, direction, or context. The Mapbox MCP Server bridges that gap by enabling agents to understand, visualize, and interact with maps and spatial data – geocoding locations, calculating optimal routes, analyzing travel times, querying the metadata of millions of global locations, and more.

Unified geospatial platform for AI Agents

The Mapbox MCP Server provides geospatial APIs via a single interface for AI agents to deliver context-aware answers without complex integrations. Choose the Mapbox-hosted service for quick deployment or the self-hosted option for full infrastructure control.

Build customized conversational maps

Partner with Mapbox to discover how to design and embed conversational map capabilities into customized applications and websites.

Mapbox DevKit MCP Server

Equip AI coding tools with geospatial skills for Mapbox implementations

Make AI coding assistants Mapbox-aware

Equip coding tools like Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code with direct access to Mapbox tokens, styles, and geospatial utilities to handle repetitive tasks automatically.

Speed up development, focus on creativity

Automate project setup, data formatting, style management and more with natural-language prompts. Focus development time on the specialized logic and user experience that make apps unique.

Location Agents

Maps as the canvas for conversational AI

Explore the future of interactive maps

The Mapbox Location Agent demonstrates what is possible when combining the Mapbox MCP Server and LLMs. Explore how any map can transform into conversational, intelligent surfaces powered by AI. See an example of the Agent in action and request access to interact with the agent live.

FAQs

Mapbox Location AI products support location-centered agentic workflows. It includes the Mapbox MCP Server, the Mapbox DevKit MCP Server, MapGPT, the Mapbox Feedback Agent, and the Mapbox Location Agent.

The Mapbox MCP Server provides a unified endpoint for AI systems to access the Mapbox platform of geospatial data and location technology services. The Server equips AI agents to perform tasks such as geocoding, route planning, and point-of-interest (POI) lookup through natural-language interfaces, simplifying complex geospatial workflows into a single, standardized protocol.

The hosted version of the Mapbox MCP Server is best for developers who want instant access to Mapbox services without managing infrastructure.

The local version of the Mapbox MCP Server is best for teams that require full control over data, security, and infrastructure. The MCP Server can run within your own environment for custom configuration and compliance needs.

The Mapbox DevKit MCP Server equips AI coding tools with direct Mapbox access, so they can create styles, format data, and generate tokens on demand – speeding up development and boosting creativity. Developers can install the DevKit locally or connect to the hosted version to integrate with their preferred AI coding assistants. Claude Code integration is available out of the box today, with support for additional tools like Copilot and Cursor in development.

The Mapbox MCP Server is designed to equip AI agents that interact with end users, giving them access to geospatial reasoning and geographic data. The DevKit, meanwhile, supports developers who are building with Mapbox services by enabling them to connect AI coding assistants to the Mapbox platform to improve productivity and automate repetitive project tasks. 

In short: the Mapbox MCP Server helps AIs like agents or LLMs understand location context while the DevKit helps developers build AI experiences faster with Mapbox.

MapGPT is a conversational copilot AI assistant designed for use specifically in automotive in-vehicle systems. Learn more at https://www.mapbox.com/mapgpt.

The Mapbox Feedback Agent enables voice-based feedback from end users so they can easily report updates or errors in map data or navigation instructions. AI analysis enriches feedback with context and categorization to speed review and response by service teams. Learn more at https://www.mapbox.com/feedback-agent.
