[Local Maps via Google Maps] Local-business search (data source: Google Maps; use must comply with Google Terms of Service). Search local businesses at a given lat/lng — returns name, address, rating, review count, etc. Use when: user says "Y businesses in city X" / "local retail research" / "offline channel distribution" / "coffee shops/supermarkets/wholesalers in area" / "physical-store coverage density"; offline competitor/channel research; gauging physical-supply density of a category in a region. Don't use: for e-commerce listings (Amazon series); for global trends (use keyword_trends); for Google search results (use ai_search). Returns: data.organicResults[{ place_id, name, about, rating, number_of_reviews, borough, street_addr, city, postal_code, ... }]. Pair with: ↑ query (business keyword) + latitude/longitude/zoom (zoom 1=world, 13=city, 21=single building); ↓ presentation-focused, downstream rarely consumes. Cost: ~1.5 points/call, ~5s. Tips: zoom 13 (city, default) gives you a whole neighborhood; zoom 17+ narrows to one street.
