google-maps-biz business-profile geocoding places-api route-optimizer
Turn raw addresses into business decisions -- geocode, search, route, and dominate your local market with the full power of Google Maps Platform.
Google Maps Business Agent transforms the Google Maps Platform into a command-line business intelligence tool. Instead of writing boilerplate API integration code, you issue natural commands like maps search "ramen near Shibuya" and receive structured, actionable data. The agent handles API key management, quota tracking, pagination, and result enrichment behind the scenes so you can focus on extracting location insights.
The architecture is built around a layered pipeline. Raw requests flow through an authentication layer that injects your API key, then through a request builder that translates human-readable commands into properly formatted API calls, and finally through a response parser that normalizes the heterogeneous outputs from Places, Directions, Geocoding, and Business Profile APIs into a consistent tabular format. A local cache layer prevents redundant API calls for repeated queries, and a quota monitor warns you before you hit billing thresholds.

TERMINAL OUTPUT
For businesses operating in Japan and across Asia-Pacific, the agent includes region-aware defaults such as Japanese-language place results, metric distance units, and address formatting that respects the Japanese postal system. Multi-stop route optimization uses a nearest-neighbor heuristic with optional TSP solver integration for delivery fleet planning.

| Error | Cause | Solution |

AUTH_FAILED: Invalid API key | Expired or misconfigured API key | Run echo $GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY to verify. Regenerate at console.cloud.google.com if needed. |
QUOTA_EXCEEDED: Daily limit reached | API usage exceeded the $200/month free tier or daily cap | Check usage at console.cloud.google.com/billing. Set --no-rate-limit if you accept higher costs. |
ZERO_RESULTS: No places found | Query too specific or region mismatch | Broaden the search radius with --radius, or change --region to match target location. |
GEOCODE_PARTIAL: Low confidence match | Ambiguous or incomplete address | Provide full postal code and prefecture. Use --strict to reject partial matches entirely. |
ROUTE_NOT_FOUND: No route between points | Points are on different islands or unreachable by the specified mode | Try --mode transit for island-to-island routes, or verify coordinates are on road-accessible land. |
BUSINESS_UNVERIFIED: Profile not claimed | Attempting profile management on unverified listing | Complete Google Business verification flow at business.google.com before using maps business commands. |
RATE_LIMITED: Too many requests | Burst of requests exceeded per-second QPS limit | The agent automatically retries with exponential backoff. If persistent, reduce --concurrency for bulk ops. |

1. How do I get a Google Maps API key? Go to console.cloud.google.com, create a project, enable Places API, Directions API, and Geocoding API, then create an API key under Credentials. Restrict the key to these three APIs for security.
2. How much does this cost to use? Google offers $200/month in free credits. A typical search costs $0.032, geocoding costs $0.005, and routing costs $0.010. The agent tracks spending per-command so you always know your burn rate.
3. Can I use this without a Google Business Profile?
Yes. All commands except maps business work without a Business Profile. The GOOGLE_BUSINESS_ACCOUNT_ID variable is optional.
4. How does the cache work?
Every geocoding and places result is cached locally in SQLite with a 24-hour TTL. Repeated queries hit the cache instead of the API, saving money. Use --no-cache to force a fresh request.
5. Can I geocode Japanese addresses in kanji? Yes. The agent accepts both kanji addresses like "東京都渋谷区神宮前1-1-1" and romaji like "1-1-1 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo". Postal codes in NNN-NNNN format are also supported.
6. How does route optimization work?
The maps optimize command uses a nearest-neighbor heuristic by default. For routes with 10+ stops, it applies a 2-opt improvement pass. This is not a guaranteed optimal solution for large TSP instances but produces near-optimal results in seconds.
7. What output formats are supported?
Table (default for terminal), JSON (--format json), CSV (--format csv), and map URL (--format map-url) which generates a Google Maps link you can open in a browser.
8. Can I use this for delivery fleet routing?
Yes. Combine maps optimize with --start and --end flags for depot-to-depot routing. For multiple vehicles, split stops into groups and optimize each independently.
9. How does competitor analysis calculate the density score? The density score (0-10) is based on the number of matching businesses per square kilometer, weighted by their average rating and review count. A score above 7 indicates high competition.
10. Is there a rate limit?
Google enforces 50 QPS (queries per second) by default. The agent self-limits to stay within free tier spending unless you pass --no-rate-limit. Bulk operations use configurable concurrency with --concurrency.
11. Can I export results as GeoJSON for mapping tools?
Yes. Use --format geojson on any search or geocode command to produce a GeoJSON FeatureCollection compatible with QGIS, Mapbox, or Leaflet.
12. Does the agent handle API key rotation?
Not automatically. However, the quota monitor warns you at 80% of your monthly budget. You can set up multiple keys and switch with export GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY=new_key.
