Gmapsscraper MCP Server

gmapsscraper MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for gmapsscraper.io — lets Claude, Cursor, Windsurf and any MCP client scrape Google Maps business data in plain conversation: names, addresses, phones, emails, websites, ratings, review counts, categories and coordinates.

"Find 50 dentists in Chicago with their emails" → done, right in your AI chat.

Tools

Each scrape costs 2 credits; multiple keywords in one call cost the same. Free tier: 10 credits (5 searches, no credit card) — get an API key at gmapsscraper.io/dashboard.

Setup

Claude Code

claude mcp add gmapsscraper -e GMAPSSCRAPER_API_KEY=your_key -- npx -y @gmapsscraper/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf

Add to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json, .cursor/mcp.json, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gmapsscraper": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@gmapsscraper/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GMAPSSCRAPER_API_KEY": "your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Requires Node.js ≥ 18. The server runs locally over stdio and talks to the gmapsscraper.io API — no other infrastructure involved.
