Description
No travel planner or map lets you search the whole world for one specific interest. Mine is cats. Every pin here is scored from guest reviews, names the cat when guests did, and links back to the source. Free, no sign-up.

Could you build this?
Partial The map interface is trivial, but sourcing and continuously extracting cat mentions with names and scores across global reviews requires large-scale scraping or expensive review API access.
What it would actually take: The frontend is a standard Mapbox/Leaflet React app. The hard part is the data pipeline: scraping Google Places, TripAdvisor, or Yelp reviews globally, running NLP entity extraction to identify resident cats and their names, and avoiding severe API costs or scraping IP bans. Doing this at a global scale requires robust proxy rotation, rate-limiting handlers, and custom fine-tuned NLP classification for review text.
