Chipoint is a SOTA geolocation model that is open-weight and currently beats the published frontier closed-weight model (Pinpoint, June 2026) and beats all models on the OSV-5M bench.
Chipoint — OSV-5M benchmark
OSV-5M test set (210,122 images). Acc@Xkm is the share of predictions within X km. GeoScore is 5000·exp(-d/1492.7), higher is better.
| Model | @25km | @200km | @750km | @2500km | GeoScore | Mean err |

| HierLoc | – | – | – | – | 3963 | 861 km |
| Pinpoint (retrieval only) | 32.1 | 65.6 | 82.8 | 92.8 | 4035 | 784 km |
| Pinpoint (full) | 35.6 | 67.5 | 83.7 | 93.2 | 4114 | 743 km |

Chipoint's median error is 51 km. Baseline numbers are as reported in the OSV-5M (CVPR 2024), HierLoc (arXiv 2601.23064), and Pinpoint (arXiv 2606.04133) papers. Blank cells are metrics a given method does not report on OSV-5M. OSV-5M Baseline, RFM, and HierLoc report administrative accuracy plus GeoScore/mean rather than distance thresholds, so they compare only on the GeoScore and mean-error columns.
Country / region (OSV-5M): Chipoint reaches country ≈ 85.6%, region / admin-1 ≈ 61.7% (from reverse-geocoding the predictions, approximate vs exact admin boundaries). For reference, at admin level Pinpoint reports Country 84.8% / Region 59.1% and HierLoc 82.9% / 55.0%. Our figures use nearest-place geocoding rather than exact polygons, so treat that comparison as indicative.
IMPORTANT
Chipoint could not compare itself on other benchmarks other than OSV-5M due to several factors. Benchmarks such as im2gps, im2gps3k, YFCC4k, and GWS15k are either private or unretrivable.
Running the model

when the hell is chipoint 2 coming out??
its in progress! we are cooking at chiikabu labs, and if youd like to accelerate chipoint 2's progress, feel free to contact me on discord! (username is "fourlatte")
