Recent multi-view Transformers (e.g., DUSt3R and VGGT) have advanced 3D reconstruction by scaling training data and model capacity from two views to many views and long sequences, subsuming the classical SfM/SLAM pipeline of feature extraction, matching, and pose estimation in a single feed-forward pass. Yet this subsumption hides the interfaces between pipeline stages---correspondences, geometry, and pose are entangled in a single forward pass, leaving supervised fine-tuning as the major path to improvement and offering no mechanism to correct predictions from geometric evidence at test time. We propose PosePlaner to close this gap by reviving the classical coupling between correspondences and pose via flow matching, treating pose refinement as a conditional generation problem that takes coarse geometric matches and initial pose as input condition and fuses the resulting pose hypotheses into a single refined estimate, providing a continuous, data-driven analog of RANSAC voting. Our method is trained efficiently on two-view data, yet serves as a periodic refiner for streaming n-view pose estimators with no retraining. Empirically, it corrects failures of feed-forward predictors, substantially improves correspondence-based solvers, and reduces accumulated drift in long streaming sequences.
