Stunning Art with AI

Drag the slider to compare the original map with the AI-generated sketch — same location, completely different feel.
Real Maps, Real Art
Every feature is built around one idea: turn actual geographic data into artwork you can use.
Search any address, landmark, or coordinate — CartoSketch pulls high-detail map data from Mapbox for the exact location you need.
Cartoon sketch, watercolor, sci-fi, ink wash — choose a style or describe your own, and AI generates the artwork in seconds.
Download up to 2K resolution PNGs — sharp enough for posters, book covers, merch, or social media posts.
Three Steps to Map Art
No design skills needed. Pick a place, let AI do the rest.
Search any address or landmark, adjust the zoom and angle, then capture the map view you want.
Select from preset art styles — cartoon sketch, watercolor, sci-fi — or type a custom prompt to guide the AI.
AI generates the artwork in seconds. Download the high-res file and use it anywhere — prints, slides, games, or social.
Loved by Creators Around the World
Game designers, illustrators, educators, and presenters use CartoSketch to turn real places into beautiful styled maps.
“CartoSketch completely changed how I build game worlds. I can take any real city, apply a hand-drawn sketch style, and drop it straight into my game — no more tracing over screenshots manually.”
Marcus Reed
Indie Game Designer
“The AI styling is seriously impressive. I've tried other map tools and they all generate fictional terrain — CartoSketch is the only one that works with real geography. That's a game-changer for editorial illustration.”
Sophie Laurent
Freelance Illustrator
“Forget generic stock map images. With CartoSketch I can match the map style to my slide deck's aesthetic — minimalist line art for corporate decks, sci-fi themes for tech pitches. It just works.”
Ryan O'Sullivan
Presentation Designer
