HEADERS = {"x-api-key": API_KEY}

# 1. Scrape high-intent local businesses in real time (no proxies or Playwright needed)
places = requests.get(

Google Maps Scraper FAQ

How does GoogleMapsAPI.io bypass Google Maps' 60–120 result limit per city?

Instead of running a single broad city text query, subdivide your target metro into a coordinate grid (e.g. 0.02° × 0.02° lat/lng cells) and call GET /v1/places/nearby concurrently at up to 3,000 RPM. Deduplicate results by place_id (ChIJ...)—and any grid cell over water, parks, or residential blocks that returns 0 businesses costs 0 Credits.

Why use an API instead of running Playwright/Puppeteer or Apify container actors?

DIY browser scrapers break every time Google obfuscates DOM classes, require $10+/GB residential proxies, and suffer 15–45 second container cold starts. GoogleMapsAPI.io returns clean, schema-validated JSON synchronously in 30ms–1.8s with zero proxy maintenance and zero compute rent.

Does the Google Maps Scraper extract email addresses and LinkedIn/Instagram profiles?

Yes. Google Maps cards only store website URLs and phone numbers, so our GET /v1/leads/enrich endpoint (or ?enrich_contacts=true on Place Details) crawls the business's official website and /contact pages in real time to extract verified emails and 6 social platforms—charging 0 Credits whenever no contact is found.

Can I connect this Google Maps Scraper directly to Clay, n8n, Make, or Zapier?

Yes. Because every endpoint is a synchronous HTTP GET/POST JSON endpoint authenticated with a single x-api-key header, you can paste https://api.googlemapsapi.io/v1/places/search directly into a Clay HTTP API column or n8n HTTP Request node with zero polling loops.
