Google can capitalize on Apple maps launch’s many early miscues. This ad, launched earlier this month before Apple’s own launch, is a more upbeat one focused on the hard work Google has done over the year to become ubiquitous.

The soundtrack, in case you’re wondering, is “Let’s Go Everywhere” by Medeski, Martin & Wood.
