Get a business profile

maps_get_place

Read-onlyIdempotent

One business's full Google Business Profile: categories, hours, description, rating breakdown and the topics its reviews mention.

Use when: "audit this business's Google profile", "what do reviews of this clinic talk about", "what is this practice's primary category", checking a prospect before outreach. Not for: finding businesses or a business's local rivals, use maps_search_places (by search) or maps_search_businesses (by area and filters). The review text itself is not returned. A company's firmographics, use leads_get_company. Returns: Record. place_id, cid, name, category, additional_categories[], address, phone, website, domain, rating, reviews, is_claimed, status, maps_url, description, rating_counts[] (1 star first), hours[] (day, open, close as HH:MM; a day with no row is closed), attributes[], topics[] (topic, mentions), services[], people_also_search[], book_online_url. services[] and people_also_search[] come back empty upstream, and attributes[] holds little beyond accessibility: an empty list is not a gap in the profile. NoData when Google has no profile for the lookup. Give exactly one of place_id, cid or name. Cost: 2 credits. Cached 7 days. Example: {"place_id": "ChIJP0warDDowokRfvXMkBqL5Cg"}

A4.8/5.0

Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already establish read-only, idempotent, open-world safety, and the description layers on non-obvious behavior: 2 credits per call, 7-day caching, NoData when no profile exists, and the important caveat that services[] and people_also_search[] come back empty upstream so an empty list is not a data gap. It also warns that review text itself is not returned, which prevents a wrong tool choice.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Well front-loaded and sectioned (purpose, when, not-for, returns, constraint, cost, example), with each block doing distinct work. The one inefficiency is the exhaustive return-field enumeration, much of which duplicates the output schema, though the inline caveats about empty upstream fields justify keeping part of it.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a 7-parameter, open-world lookup with an output schema, the definition covers selection, exclusions, identifier constraint, cost, caching, null-result behavior, and known upstream data quirks. Nothing an agent needs to invoke it correctly or interpret a sparse response is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3; the description earns a bump by stating the cross-parameter constraint 'Give exactly one of place_id, cid or name' — a mutual-exclusivity rule the schema cannot express since required is empty. The cost/example block also clarifies how max_credits and dry_run interact with the 2-credit estimate, though individual lookup parameters are otherwise left to the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Opens with a specific verb-plus-resource framing: one business's full Google Business Profile, then enumerates what it contains (categories, hours, description, rating breakdown, review topics). It explicitly names what it is not (maps_search_places, maps_search_businesses, leads_get_company), so an agent can distinguish it from its nearest siblings without opening any schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides concrete when-to-use triggers in quoted user phrasing ('audit this business's Google profile', 'what do reviews of this clinic talk about', checking a prospect before outreach) and an explicit Not-for section that routes to the correct alternative by search vs. by area-and-filters, plus leads_get_company for firmographics.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
