What the app is, what it costs, and why it isn't another map with pins on it.

What is Specialty Atlas?

Specialty Atlas is a specialty coffee app for iOS and Android that puts the whole hobby in one place: a curated map of specialty cafés and roasteries, bean matching to your own taste in Atlas Lab, a Coffee Passport of city stamps, live beans on bar, guided brewing with a timer and a journal, events and cuppings, an offline coffee knowledge base, and people who care about the same thing. It is free to download and free to use.

Is it free?

Yes. The map, Atlas Lab, the Coffee Passport, Coffee Miles, recipes, brewing and events cost nothing, and there is no paid plan for coffee drinkers. Cafés and roasteries have their own paid plans in Specialty Atlas Business, but that never puts a guest feature behind a paywall.

How is it different from Google Maps?

Google Maps knows every place that sells coffee. It has no idea what specialty means, so a chain, a bakery and a roastery worth travelling for all look the same, and the filtering is left to you. Every café on Specialty Atlas is checked before it goes on the map, and each one carries the context you actually decide on: the roasters they pour, the brew methods, what is on the bar today, and what other people picked out about the room.

Why call it the most complete specialty coffee app?

Because the parts that usually live in five separate apps live here in one, and they are connected. A map app does not know your taste. A bean database does not know which café near you pours it. A brew timer does not remember the bag you bought last week. Here, a bean you match in Atlas Lab shows you the cafés pouring it, the visit becomes a passport stamp and Coffee Miles, and the recipe you dialled in stays in your journal for the next bag.

Which cities and countries are on the map?

Most of our places are in Poland, but the map keeps growing across Europe and beyond. Every city on the map has its own page you can open in any browser. If your city looks thin, suggest a café in the app and we'll check it.

How does bean matching work?

A short quiz in Atlas Lab learns your taste: the flavour notes you like, the ones you never want in your cup, your balance of acidity, sweetness, body and bitterness, roast, your brewing gear and the occasion. Every bean in the app then gets a match score for you, with a short line explaining where it came from. The comparison runs on flavour, in SCA flavour-wheel language, not on a name or a popularity ranking. Coffees one step off your ideal still show up, because that is often where you find something new. When too little is known about a bean, Lab says so instead of handing out a score it cannot back up. Every coffee you rate sharpens the next match, and you can switch the profile off at any time and filter by hand instead.

What is the Coffee Passport?

A collection you fill by actually going places. Rate a café while you are there and the visit stays in your passport as a stamp. Every city has its own design, some cafés run limited stamps during a campaign, and each new Coffee Miles level adds another. On top of that you earn badges, and it all sits in a passport booklet you can flip through and share.

What is Specialty Atlas Wrapped?

Once a year, everything you did in the app comes back as Wrapped: a recap you swipe through, not a page of statistics. It scores your year the way you would score a coffee, with marks for aroma, flavour, acidity, body and balance. It works out your processing method, because some people drink like a Washed and some like an Anaerobic. And it finishes by printing the year as a coffee bag label: your region, your roast, your harvest dates, your tasting notes. Save it as an image or share it. It opens at the end of the year and stays in your profile afterwards, so old ones do not disappear.

What languages does it speak?

Sixteen: English, Polish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Ukrainian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Japanese. The app follows your phone and you can change it in settings.

I run a café or roastery. How do I get on the map?

Create a free business account at specialtyatlas.com/b2b. If your place is already on the map you claim it; if it is not, you submit it and we check that it fits specialty before it goes live. From there the panel is yours: beans on bar, events, your check-in QR and passport stamp, recipes, replies in Buzz, and the numbers behind them.
