MADE TO GET WIPED.
SAVED TO REMEMBER.
Street art isn't meant to sit in a gallery forever. Most pieces only last a couple of weeks before the city rolls gray paint over them and they're gone for good. BUFFMAP is an open, private map that tracks what's up right now, what just got buffed, and the artists behind the walls.
SAVING THE ART
BEFORE IT'S
GONE.
Let's be real: street art is tricky. For artists painting outside the lines, dropping a GPS pin on an app can feel sketchy. If an app gets privacy wrong, people get in trouble. That's why privacy isn't some extra toggle in our settings — it's literally the foundation of everything we build.
When the city comes by with a roller and gray paint, the piece isn't lost forever on BUFFMAP. We keep a layer-by-layer history of the wall so you can see the whole story unfold over time. The wall changes hands, but the culture stays documented.
Blurred Locations
We fuzz exact GPS pins on unsanctioned spots so nobody can use our map to track artists down.
The Gray Buff Bar
When a piece gets painted over, the card updates so you don't waste a trip across town.
Ghost Profiles
No real names, no facial scans, and no social media stalking. You own your blackbook.
Fresh Wall Drops
New spots slide onto your feed clean and fast, right when they're verified by spotters.
WHAT'S ON THE WALLS RIGHT NOW
Checked and verified by real people on the ground. Filter by city or status to see what's still up and what already got buffed.
FIND WALLS ACROSS YOUR CITY
Check out spots near you with smart privacy blur, walking routes, and up-to-date neighborhood pins.
WE CAN'T SHARE WHAT WE DON'T COLLECT
You can't leak data you don't have. Every photo is scrubbed clean directly on your phone before it ever leaves your device.

HOW WE PROTECT YOU
Engineered so that no single person, court request, or scraping bot can track down writers.
| Scenario | Potential Risk | How BUFFMAP Handles It |
|---|---|---|
| City / Authorities | Subpoenas & Data Requests | Zero data to give: No IP logs, no emails, and GPS pins are blurred. |
| Buff Crews | Scraping & Scouting | Rate limits and neighborhood-level area views keep locations protected. |
| Rivals / Stalkers | Tracking Movement | Optional 90-day upload delays so nobody knows when you were out. |
| Company Insiders | Database Leaks | Exact coordinates are locked down in a completely separate database with strict access rules. |
