A real editor, not a form to fill in
Tools you would expect from a drawing application, a layer list that keeps hundreds of regions in order, and an inspector for whatever you have chosen. This is the bicycle example, open for editing.

- Regions from the drawing itselfUpload an SVG and every shape becomes a region with its own outline. No tracing.
- One inspector for the selectionWhat it says, where it goes, how it looks and how its popup opens, in three tabs.

What it does
Everything a picture needs to explain itself
Every item here is in the editor today. Nothing on this page is a roadmap.
Examples
110 worked examples, open to anyone
Eleven groups, each answering the question somebody arrives with. Every one is a real project, published from the editor and shown exactly as a reader receives it. No account needed to look.
Who or what reaches where?
Territories, zones, offices and delivery areas, painted on real maps of every country.
All 10 coverage examples
How it works
Three steps, and the third is optional
- 1
Bring a picture, or pick a map
A floor plan, a diagram, a product shot, a painting - JPEG, PNG, WebP or SVG. Or a country, with its regions already drawn.
- 2
Mark what matters
Draw or claim the regions, name them, and decide what each reveals: a line, a gallery, a table of facts, a link, another artboard.
- 3
Publish it anywhere
A share link and an embed. Choose the sites allowed to show it, roll back to any version, or unpublish.

An interactive image that only works with a mouse is broken
Most image-map tools produce something a keyboard cannot reach and a screen reader cannot describe. This one treats that as a defect, and checks for it before you publish.
Read the accessibility statement- Focus follows the pictureTab moves in reading order, rows then left to right, not in the order regions were drawn.
- The focus ring is always visibleAt least 4.04:1 against any colour a creator picks, proved by a test that sweeps the whole range.
- Every region is reachableEven a region drawn by the artwork itself has a control a keyboard and a screen reader can find.
- Motion is a preferenceReduced-motion settings are honoured on every published page.
Publishing
You decide who sees it, and where
- Private until you publish. Publishing mints an unguessable link; nothing is listed or indexed by us.
- Frozen versions. Keep editing, then republish - or roll back to any of the last 20.
- Embed only where you allow. Name the sites allowed to frame it; leave the list empty and only GuidedVisual can.
- Unpublish means unpublished. The share page, the embed and the images behind them stop resolving.
Pricing
Free, with real limits
There is no paid tier yet, so there is nothing to compare and no card to enter. These are the limits every account has.

Do I need to know how to code?
No. Everything is drawn and configured in the editor, and publishing gives you a link and an embed snippet to paste.
Can I start today?
GuidedVisual is in early access, so sign-in is by invitation while it is finished. Every example is open to look at now, and you can ask to be let in by email.
What happens to a published visual when I keep editing?
Nothing, until you publish again. Publishing freezes a copy of the document and its images, so a link you sent last month still shows what you sent.
Is it free?
Yes, with real limits rather than a countdown. There is no paid tier yet and no card is asked for.
Start with one picture
Look through the examples, then ask for an invitation and make your own. Nothing to install and nothing to pay.
