Intuo is a map-making skill pack for AI agents, designed to enable agents such as Claude and Codex to complete genuinely usable map work. The core problem it solves is this: traditional GIS software costs four figures per year and requires a professional degree, while most people who need a map simply have to give up. Intuo lets users get maps through conversation.
Purpose Intuo is used to turn tabular data into maps and to obtain and integrate public geographic data. Typical needs include: putting lists of customers, members, students, sites, and so on onto a map; obtaining data such as census demographics, NOAA weather, county parcels, political districts, and roads; and producing reusable maps, such as weekly routes, monthly board maps, and quarterly territory divisions.
Key capabilities Intuo provides eight skills, each corresponding to a specific task:
- Geocoding: address input, coordinate output, handling messy columns, PO boxes, and partial matches.
- Demographics and income: obtaining demographics and income data from ACS by census tract, ZIP, or county, and joining it with user data.
- Weather and hazards: overlaying NOAA forecasts, smoke, storms, and hazard layers on any map area.
- District lookup: finding congressional, school, and voting districts for each row in a file.
- Parcel data: obtaining property lines, owners, and zoning information from county open data sources.
- Route planning: multi-stop route planning and drive-time area analysis for sales representatives, staff, and deliveries.
- Territory division: drawing and rebalancing territories by count, revenue, or workload, fairly and repeatably.
- Map styling and citation: default output of clear, readable maps with sensible colors, labels, legends, and citations.
How to use it Users can add the skill pack in the Claude app, then attach a file and describe the map they want. For users of Claude Code or Codex, command-line installation methods are also provided. The skill pack supports Claude (app and web), Claude Code, Claude Cowork, Codex CLI, and Cursor, and the same skill pack is built with customizations for different environments.
Use cases Intuo is suitable for users who need to make maps quickly but lack GIS expertise, for example: showing member distribution by congressional district, coloring county census tracts by ACS income and overlaying location points, planning the optimal route for seven stops on Monday, or checking the flood and wildfire exposure of an address, and so on. Maps can be hosted and rerun when the data changes.
Limitations and Notes Intuo does not claim that maps are absolutely accurate; rather, it shows the mechanism: geocoding results come with match counts, and partial matches and failures are flagged rather than silently dropped. Every map is labeled at the edges with data sources, such as ACS year, TIGER/Line year, and county data source. Maps require user review before receiving a public link: the agent drafts, and the user signs off. Data sources include the U.S. Census Bureau, NOAA, county open data portals, and OpenStreetMap. The skill is permanently free and open source, and hosted maps have a genuinely free tier. If users know GIS, everything can be exported as GeoJSON and is compatible with QGIS.
