Where do I get google location data for this autocomplete feature?

I am confused about which location service api to query to get an autocomplete widget working like they have at zimride: http://www.zimride.com/

What are these guys using that says powered by Google?

I need local national data for India but not google maps at the moment. Should I be looking at the places api? I am looking for an html5/javascript implementation for my mobile web app.

Google offers a "Places Autocomplete API". The documentation is at https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/autocomplete
