Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server for real-time Google Maps local business data: place search, details, reviews, photos, geocoding and contact enrichment.

What you can do
  • Search and discover local businesses by natural-language query or GPS viewport, with ratings, phones, addresses and coordinates
  • Look up full business profiles by place ID, CID or Google ID, plus reviews, photos and typeahead address predictions
  • Convert coordinates into street addresses, Plus Codes and Place IDs
  • Crawl a business website for public emails, phone numbers and social profile links
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs live local-business data — prospecting, market or competitor research, lead lists, review analysis, or turning coordinates into addresses — without building its own Google Maps pipeline.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local install. An API key passed as the x-api-key header (PLACESDATAAPI_KEY) is needed for tool calls; handshake and tool listing are free. A paid account with credits is required, with a free signup credit offered.
Before you install
Every tool call consumes paid credits (for example 5 credits per place returned, 20 per enriched place or lead), so costs scale with result volume. The key is a billable secret sent as a header. Lead enrichment crawls third-party websites and returns public contact emails and social profiles, which carries privacy and anti-spam compliance obligations.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open PlacesDataAPI — Local Business Places, Reviews & Contact Enrichment MCP Server in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.placesdataapi%2Fmcp-server/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
