Launch ToolLevel Up Your Local Guide Profile
Welcome to Local Guide Tools, the ultimate companion website for dedicated Google Maps contributors. Earning points and levelling up your Local Guide profile requires consistent, high-quality contributions. However, finding places that actually need your help in dense, highly-mapped cities can be a challenge. That is where our web apps come in.
How It Works
Our tools utilise the powerful new Google Places API to scan your specific location, neighbourhood, or city for businesses with incomplete or lacking profiles. By targeting these hidden gems, you can provide maximum value to the community while maximising your point yield.
- Missing Photos & Reviews: Our scanners allow you to filter for businesses with zero, or very few, photos and reviews. Adding the first high-quality photo to a new business is one of the best ways to earn points and help small business owners establish their digital storefront.
- Missing Information: Find local shops that have forgotten to add their phone numbers, websites, or regular opening hours. Submitting an approved edit for these missing details provides immediate assistance to future customers.
- Wheelchair Accessibility: An incredibly vital but often overlooked aspect of Maps. Use our accessibility mapper to find nearby physical storefronts that have unconfirmed entrance data, allowing you to go verify if they are wheelchair accessible.
Whether you are trying to reach Level 10 or just want to make your local neighbourhood easier to navigate, our free tools are built to guide your contributions efficiently.
