Google Maps Business Scraper API

Most “local business” datasets start as a spreadsheet someone copied from Google Maps. This API automates that loop: you send a search query, you get businesses with contact fields, ratings, and geo data ready for a warehouse or CRM.
What you get
Each result typically includes business name, address, phone, website, rating count, coordinates, hours, and media links. That is enough to power lead lists, competitive maps, or review monitoring without maintaining a headless browser farm yourself.
Example request
curl "https://data-apis.elormdokosi.com/gmaps/search?query=restaurants%20in%20Austin&max_results=5"Tune max_results for pagination-style pulls; cache responses on your side if you are building a directory that refreshes daily.
When to use it
- Lead generation — filter by category + city, dedupe by place ID, enrich in your stack.
- Competitor analysis — track rating drift and review volume for a fixed set of queries.
- Market research — aggregate density of a business type across metros.
