Help users discover the world around them
Thanks to the Places API, internet users can access useful information (name, contact details, address, rating, reviews) to find a hotel on the other side of the world and a nearby restaurant. The Places POI database is updated continually by the owners of the establishments themselves and by the Local Guide community.

Thanks to Places’ predictive text, entering an address has never been easier, even on a smartphone screen. By integrating the Places API into your apps, you can automatically suggest invoicing or delivery addresses to your clients.
