Two ways to use Google Maps reviews
Way 1 · Pay per call (x402)
For AI agents, no sign-up
Your agent sends the request, gets a 402 with the exact price ($0.014 per search (up to 20 reviews)), signs a USDC payment on Base and retries. Nothing is collected unless the call succeeds.

}FAQ
- When should an agent use the Google Maps reviews node?
- You need to judge a local business's reputation or spot recurring complaints. It is not meant for finding businesses (use Google Maps business search first) or online-only companies (use Trustpilot reviews). A call usually takes about 13 seconds.
- What does the Google Maps reviews node return?
- Get the 20 newest Google Maps reviews for a business: stars, text, date and the owner's reply, plus its overall score. Reviewer names and photos are removed. Each call returns 20 reviews with stars, text, date and owner reply, plus the business's overall score and review count. No reviewer identities.
- How much does one call cost?
- $0.014 in USDC on Base per search (up to 20 reviews) (one call = up to 20 reviews), charged only when it succeeds. No sign-up, subscription or API key.
- What happens if the call fails?
- You are not charged. TollNode checks your signed payment first, runs the node, and only collects the payment if the result is usable. A failed, empty or timed-out call is never settled, so there is nothing to refund.
- How does an AI agent pay?
- With x402. The first request returns HTTP 402 and the exact price. Any x402 wallet signs the USDC payment and retries automatically. In Claude Code or Cursor, run npx agentcash add https://tollnode.com once.
- Can I use an API key instead?
- Yes. Create a free account, add funds in USDC on Base, create an API key and send it as Authorization: Bearer. Each successful call is deducted from your balance at the same price; failed calls cost nothing.
