Google Maps Mcp Server

com.thenextgennexus/google-maps-mcp-server

Gives Claude and other MCP clients structured access to Google Maps business data without wiring up the Places API directly. You get search_places, place_details, list_reviews, geocode_address, reverse_geocode, and nearby_places as typed tools that return stable JSON. Runs on Apify infrastructure with pay-per-call pricing, so you skip the Google Cloud project setup and quota headaches. Useful when you're building AI agents that need to find local businesses, enrich leads with phone numbers and websites, or answer "near me" queries without sending users out to Google Maps. The underlying scraper can also pull Yelp data if you need cross-platform coverage for lead gen or competitive research workflows.
