The integration gives instant access to core Google Maps Platform APIs for geospatial context, with free use up to daily quota limits that reset every 24 hours and no credit card required; a paid Cloud billing account is required for production. Google also published three working examples in the AI Studio gallery — a City Immersive Tour with 3D flyovers, a Pet Grooming Route Optimizer built on the Routes API, and a Store Locator & Near Me Finder using vector maps and the Places API.", "body_md": "You can now build apps powered by [Google Maps Platform](https://mapsplatform.google.com/) in Google AI Studio. Create a wide range of apps from store locators and route planners to cinematic 3D flyovers and real-time air quality monitors—in minutes, at no cost, and with no credit card required.\n\nSimply describe your idea for a new app and allow Google AI Studio to handle the configuration and API key management. All of Google Maps Platform’s spatial tools are available right where you prompt. Take our Google Maps products to places they’ve never been before.
