Capabilities
From 50+ Maps APIs to the integration your product ships on
Google Maps Platform has 50+ APIs. We pick the three that solve your problem, then deliver the integration: SDKs wired in, GCP set up, and cost engineered for India scale. As India's largest GMP reseller and a Premier Partner, that matching and delivery is the work we do.

We do not sell maps. We match use cases to APIs.
Google Maps Platform is a suite of 50+ mapping and location APIs and SDKs. Most teams meet it as a price list, or as the four Core APIs they happened to start with. The hard part is not access. It is knowing which capabilities actually solve the problem in front of your product, and then making them work in production.
That is the work we do. We pick the three APIs that solve your problem out of the 50+, and we deliver the integration: SDKs wired in, the Google Cloud project set up, and usage engineered so cost stays predictable at India scale. We are India's largest GMP reseller and a Google Maps Platform Premier Partner, with a maintained internal knowledge base of every API and how it bills.
The surface we work across
Every family, not just the four you started with
Six families, and the part of each one we integrate. Two of them need something granted before you can make the first call, and one of them is not an API at all: it arrives as a dataset in your warehouse.
| Family | Products we integrate | Where it shows up in your stack | What has to be granted first | India-specific capability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maps Render and visualise, for the map your users see and interact with 8 None specific. The same render surface everywhere. |
| Web and mobile SDKs, plus REST for the static surfaces | Enable on your own GCP project | None specific. The same render surface everywhere. |
| Routes Move and navigate, including tolls and live-traffic ETA in routing 5 Two-wheeler routing. Tolls and live-traffic ETA. |
| REST, with the Navigation SDK inside your app | Enable on your own GCP project | Two-wheeler routing. Tolls and live-traffic ETA. |
| Places Find and verify, for discovery and clean addresses 6 Address Descriptors, India-exclusive. Gemini-powered Places summaries. |
| REST, called from your backend or your checkout field | Enable on your own GCP project | Address Descriptors, India-exclusive. Gemini-powered Places summaries. |
| Environment Sense the world, for context that depends on conditions on the ground 4 None specific. Coverage follows the dataset. |
| REST, keyed on a coordinate or a building | Enable on your own GCP project | None specific. Coverage follows the dataset. |
| Mobility Run a fleet, on a managed backend for vehicles, trips and ETAs 7 MV Aggregator Guidelines 2025 hooks: State Command and Control Centre feeds, route-deviation detection, panic button. |
| Fleet Engine as a managed backend, with SDKs in the driver and rider apps | Provisioned under a Mobility Plan | MV Aggregator Guidelines 2025 hooks: State Command and Control Centre feeds, route-deviation detection, panic button. |
| Analytics Analyse at scale, the gated analytics layer delivered into your warehouse 3 None specific. Lepton resells Roads Management Insights as Trafficure. |
| A BigQuery dataset you query, not an API you poll. Imagery Insights also lands in Cloud Storage; Roads Management Insights adds Pub/Sub. | Gated. Imagery Insights by allowlist | None specific. Lepton resells Roads Management Insights as Trafficure. |

Built for India
The capabilities that matter on Indian ground
Several Google Maps Platform capabilities exist precisely because Indian addresses, roads and last-mile behave differently. These are the ones we lead with for India teams.
Address Descriptors and Address Validation
India-exclusive landmark hints relative to a pin, plus address verification at entry, so a wrong address is caught before it becomes a return to origin.
Two-wheeler routing
Bike-specific routing with narrow-roads and flyover logic, for the vehicles that actually run India's last mile.
Tolls and live-traffic ETA
Toll and live-traffic awareness in Routes, so quoted arrival times match what happens on the road.
Gemini-powered Places summaries
Generative summaries on Places data, for richer discovery experiences.
From 50+ APIs, the three your use case actually needs.
One use case, three APIs chosen from across the surface, one integration where they converge. That matching, and the delivery behind it, is what a Premier Partner brings that a price list does not.
The delivery
Matching is half the work. Integration is the other half.
Picking the right APIs only pays off if they reach production. We deliver the whole path end to end, from the first integration through to a usage model that holds at scale.
- 01
SDKs · End-to-end SDK integration
Driver, Consumer and Navigation SDKs and Fleet Engine, wired into your app rather than handed over as a license.
- 02
GCP · Google Cloud project setup
Service accounts, JWT authentication, API enablement and billing, the plumbing that makes the APIs callable and accountable.
- 03
Cost · Cost engineering
Quota management, usage analytics, SKU selection and free-tier and bracket engineering, so spend stays predictable as volume grows.
- 04
Migration · Structured migration paths
Phased rollouts from Core APIs to the Mobility stack, so teams move without rebuilding everything at once.
Our own layer on Google's data
We also build products on the newest GMP analytics
Beyond integration, Lepton builds its own products on Google Maps Platform's analytics surface. We are not matching you to an API we have only read the documentation for; these are surfaces we run production products on.
- 01
SmartMarket · Site selection on Places Insights
SmartMarket runs on Places Insights, Google's places data delivered into BigQuery, covering 250M+ places, for site selection and trade-area analysis.
- 02
Trafficure · Citywide traffic on Roads Management Insights
Trafficure consumes Roads Management Insights and Google's traffic dataset for citywide congestion insights.
Proof
Matched this way, customers ship on it
NoBroker worked with Lepton on its Google Maps Platform onboarding, and reported a 30-40% conversion-rate boost attributed to seamless navigation and enriched property details. Out of the fifty-plus APIs in the directory above, the listing experience behind that number needed three: Places for neighbourhood context, Geocoding for loosely written addresses, and Distance Matrix for commute time.
- Places
- Geocoding
- Distance Matrix
