Ever stared at a GeoGuessr panorama for two minutes, convinced you're somewhere in Eastern Europe, then found out it was Chile? The GeoInfer extension is curious about the same images you are. Hit a shortcut, and it tells you what the model thinks — coordinates, confidence, and a little map — without leaving the game.
Here's how to get it running.
The widget shows up automatically
Install the extension, open GeoGuessr, start a round. The GeoInfer widget appears in the corner of the page on its own — the logo, your remaining predictions, and a Predict button. Nothing to toggle on.
Before it works, you need an API key. Grab one at app.geoinfer.com/en/api, paste it into the extension settings, and that's the only setup step.
The widget sits in the corner, waiting. It won't do anything until you trigger a prediction.
Change the keyboard shortcut
The default is ⌘ ⇧ G on Mac or Ctrl Shift G on Windows. If something else on your machine already uses that, click the gear icon in the widget, click the shortcut field, press whatever keys you want, done. There's a reset button if you change your mind.
Click the field, press your keys, it saves on the spot.
How a prediction works
You're in a round, looking at a panorama. Press the shortcut. The extension sends the current frame to the GeoInfer API and within a few seconds shows:
- coordinates for the top predicted location
- a confidence radius
- a small map inside the widget centered on that prediction
Then you take it from there. GeoInfer tells you where it thinks the photo was taken — you still have to find that spot on the GeoGuessr map and drop the pin yourself.
44.537, -110.788 — the model landed on the Yellowstone area from this forested mountain viewpoint.
How accurate is it?
In this round, the prediction was 28 km off from the actual location near Old Faithful. That was good enough for 4,930 out of 5,000 points.
28 km off, 4,930 / 5,000. Right part of Yellowstone, wrong side of the park.
It won't always be that close. Dense forest, generic countryside roads, and overcast skies with no landmarks are harder. But it usually gets the country right, often the region, and that's enough to score well most of the time.
Fair play
Using AI assistance in GeoGuessr's ranked or multiplayer modes breaks their terms of service and makes the game worse for everyone else in the lobby.
GeoInfer makes sense for:
- solo practice, where you want to understand what the model picks up that you missed
- private games where everyone at the table knows and agrees to it
- going back through finished rounds to compare your reasoning to the model's
Not for ranked games, online tournaments, or any match with real players competing against you who don't know you're using it.
The guessing is the game. Use GeoInfer to get sharper at it — not to skip it.
