Connect MapsCrawler to your AI

MapsCrawler MCP server

Find businesses by postcode or city in Claude, Cursor or your own AI agent, without opening the app. Your AI assistant scans, fetches earlier scans and checks your credits.

Step 1
Add MapsCrawler to your AI

In your AI tool, add a new connector (or MCP server) with this name and URL.

Name

MapsCrawler

URL

https://mapscrawler.com/api/public/mcp

Where do I add this?

Claude.ai or Claude Desktop: Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector.

Step 2
Log in and click Allow

Your AI opens the MapsCrawler login screen. Log in with your account and grant access. Done, no API key needed.

What your AI can do

The MCP server offers five tools.

search_businesses

Scans an area and returns businesses with address, category and contact details when known.

Example question

"Find all bakeries within 5 km of 3770 Riemst."

get_business_details

Returns all stored data for one business from your scans.

Example question

"Give me all details of that first business."

list_scans

Lists your earlier scans with location, date and number of results.

Example question

"Which scans did I run this month?"

get_scan_results

Fetches the businesses of an earlier scan, without credits.

Example question

"Show the results of my scan in Leuven."

get_credits

Shows your plan and how many search credits you have left.

Example question

"How many credits do I have left?"

Credits

  • A scan through your AI costs exactly as many credits as the same scan in the app.
  • Fetching earlier scans, details and your balance is free.
  • If the map data source fails and a scan returns nothing, no credits are charged.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an API key?

No. In Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor you simply log in with your MapsCrawler account. An API key is only needed for automations such as n8n or your own scripts.

What data do I get?

Name, address, category, B2B or B2C and a Google Maps link. Phone, website and email come from open map data and are not always available. When a field is missing, you get an empty value.

How do I disconnect my AI?

Go to Settings > API keys. There you see your connected apps and keys and can disconnect or revoke them in one click.
