Integrations/Google Maps

Control what your AI agents do in Google Maps.

Let your team build AI agents for Google Maps. Bollard AI controls what each one can do, area by area.

What agents can do

Set what each agent can do across your maps access.

Each area of Google Maps, like geocoding, places, or routes, gets one of three levels: Off, Read, or Full use. Anything not allowed is denied.

Off
No access
The agent can't use that part of Google Maps.
Read
Read-only
The agent can look up places and read map details in that area. It can't run costly calls.
Full use
Look up and use
The agent can look up and use that area, like turning addresses into coordinates.

Some actions stay off until explicitly turned on

Each one runs up cost at scale, so it could override the limits set on individual areas.

Set up & manage

Connect once. Manage everyone from there.

Connect once, then control access person by person. No new keys to hand out.

Step 1 · Set up

Connect once, company-wide

An admin connects your company's Google Maps a single time. Bollard AI lays out the areas of your maps access, and anything you don't allow stays out of reach for every agent.

Step 2 · Manage

Control access per person and agent

From one dashboard, set what every person and their agents can reach. Change it any time, with no new keys for anyone.

Example

A logistics lookup agent.

A logistics agent turns addresses into coordinates and can look up places, but it can't compute routes at scale.

Monitor activity

The security model

Top-tier security.

Bollard AI is access control for AI agents. It sits between your agents and Google Maps, so they never hold your Google Maps keys and never reach Google Maps directly.

Everything runs through Bollard AI

Agents send their requests to Bollard AI, not to Google Maps. Bollard AI checks each one against your rules and passes only the allowed requests through.

Denied by default

Every area starts off-limits, and running calls at scale is held back on top of that. An agent gets in only where you've allowed it, and anything Bollard AI doesn't recognise is refused and held for review, never waved through on a guess.

Your keys stay sealed

Your Google Maps keys are sealed in a vault unique to your company and never shown again. Bollard AI unlocks them only for the instant an allowed request needs it.

Activity you can read

Every attempt is recorded in plain English: who or which agent, what they tried, which lookup or area, and the decision. The record is readable and can't be edited after the fact.

Questions

Google Maps, answered.

Does connecting Google Maps hand Bollard AI your whole account?+
Only the areas you allow. An admin connects your Google Maps access, and you decide which areas, like geocoding or places, each agent can reach. Bollard AI doesn't browse or copy your account. It sits in front of it and checks every request the agents make, passing or blocking each one.
Can an agent run up our maps bill?+
Not unless you turn it on. Computing routes at scale and batch lookups are held off by default, so an agent can do single lookups where you allow without ever running costly calls in bulk, until you explicitly allow it.
Can an agent see more than the person who owns it?+
No. An agent reaches only what its owner reaches. An explicit Off always overrides an inherited permission.
Where do our Google Maps keys live?+
Sealed in an encrypted vault, behind a key unique to your company. It's never shown again once connected, and Bollard AI unseals it only for the instant an allowed request needs it.
What happens when an agent tries something it's not allowed to do?+
Bollard AI blocks the request before it reaches Google Maps, and the blocked attempt lands in the activity record with the reason.
How do we connect Google Maps?+
An admin connects the company's Google Maps once. Bollard AI seals the connection and lays out the areas of your maps access to set rules for. From then on, all management happens in the Bollard AI dashboard.
