Turn map ideas into custom-coded prototypes in minutes, no coding required

We’re excited to introduce Builder agent—our powerful new geospatial AI agent that allows anyone to easily build new prototypes in minutes. Combining the power of generative AI with Google Maps Platform APIs, Builder agent can help you make your idea a reality, starting with a single sentence. Simply describe your project requirements, using natural, conversational language and Builder agent will quickly create a custom-coded, interactive, and immersive prototype. From creating a Street View tour of your city to visualizing weather data and showing nearby points of interest, Builder agent helps you take the first step toward bringing the imagery and data of Google Maps into your app. 

Build smarter and faster to accelerate innovation 

Builder agent helps you iterate quickly, validate concepts efficiently, and integrate powerful geospatial functionality into applications faster, with no training or coding required. It can save valuable weeks in early scoping phases, allowing you to experiment more and determine feasibility before investing in development resources.  

By empowering more users, making complex tasks simpler, and reducing the developer learning curve, organizations can ship improvements faster to accelerate innovation. See how this game-changing tool can help you build smarter, faster, and with more confidence using Google Maps Platform.

Here are some ways that you can use Builder agent to prototype new ideas.

Create a virtual tour using Street View

Imagine a real estate app developer is creating a new feature with personalized neighborhood and area info. Builder agent can rapidly prototype a map that shows points of interest, reviews, and suggest walking routes, or other requested features, connecting the journey from concept to interactive demo quickly.

Give travelers a 3D preview of Los Angeles

For example, a travel company needs an engaging map for a new hotel, allowing travelers to explore the area, nearby restaurants, sights, and transportation. Using Builder agent, they can quickly generate a photorealistic 3D interactive map with custom property markers and amenities to visually bring the excitement of the area to life.

Use environmental data to inform development proposals

Imagine a planner at a development company needs to provide park recommendations, factoring in environmental information on the local area. With Builder agent, the user can quickly layer in environmental factors such as air quality and pollen levels to rank order possible sites for consideration.

Vibe code geospatial ideas with fresh information from Google Maps Platform   

Builder agent was specifically designed to work with Google Maps Platform Maps, Routes, Places and Environment APIs and uses the most current data on more than 250 millions Places—so the demos it creates are powered by fresh information and ready to integrate for real-world use. Our AI agent uses Gemini models and adaptive reasoning to generate custom-coded geospatial prototypes, complete with source code and a detailed solution guide to help save time and increase developer confidence in creating new experiences. With Code Assist Toolkit built in, Builder agent's implementation plans and generated code are grounded in the most current Google Maps Platform data, documentation and technical resources.

Ready for integration

Send a shareable link for your prototype to your stakeholders to communicate your vision and gain alignment. Builder agent provides a solution guide that summarizes which Google Maps Platform products best fit your idea. And, the source code powering the demo can be exported for continued use in your preferred development environment.
