Fast bulk Google Maps scraper and business leads extractor. Scrape Google Maps places by city, category, postal code, coordinates, or an exact geographic area and export structured local business data: names, addresses, phone numbers, websites, ratings, opening hours, place IDs, public emails, social profiles, and sales-ready lead signals — to CSV, Excel, JSON, XML, or RSS.

Use this Google Maps extractor for B2B lead generation, local SEO outreach, sales prospecting, market research, territory analysis, competitor discovery, no-website leads for web-design agencies, and building local business directories. Bulk processing, progressive results, no Google API key or Google account required — from $1.25 per 1,000 leads.

Ready-to-run lead generation Tasks

Open the Tasks tab to launch a focused workflow without configuring dozens of fields. Presets cover dentists, plumbers, real estate agents, lawyers, restaurants, marketing agencies, no-website prospects, reputation outreach, competitor research, and recurring fresh-lead monitoring. Each Task starts with a small result cap that you can increase after checking the sample.

The default Actor input: it runs a 50-result dentist sample in Boise with contact enrichment and MX email checking enabled. A completely empty API or MCP request runs an even smaller 10-result demo instead of failing.

Why choose this Google Maps scraper & extractor?

• Broader area discovery: Standard mode searches multiple centers beyond one viewport.
• Ready-to-use contacts: get addresses, phones, websites, emails, and social links.
• Fast progressive delivery: results appear while the run is still working.
• Flexible targeting: combine 74 business categories with custom search terms.
• Lead qualification: filter no-website leads or businesses without booking — the hottest prospects for agencies.
• Email options: extract public emails, inspect contact pages, and optionally check format, disposable domains, and MX availability.
• Clean exports: use focused Contacts views or download every available field.
• Automation-ready: run through API, schedules, webhooks, MCP agents, n8n, Make, or Zapier.

Coverage and runtime

Fast mode searches around one map center and pages through the returned cards. Standard mode adds a bounded adaptive grid of nearby centers. Neither mode proves that every business in a city has been collected: Google limits and localizes search results, areas overlap, and strict filters remove candidates. maxResults is a hard delivery cap, not a guarantee of that many matches. Use all four bounding-box edges when results must fall inside an exact rectangle.

SUMMARY records parsed cards, pagination pages that returned rows, new cards on later pages, delivered rows, source failures, event counts and the cost calculated from the run's tier-specific event rates. coverageComplete is always false; network request counts are operational diagnostics, not a completeness metric.

Available Google Maps data

Group	Available fields
Business	Name, categories, description, status, Google Maps URL, place IDs
Contacts	Address, phone, website, domain, public emails, social profiles
Location	Street, city, state, postal code, country, coordinates, timezone
Reputation	Rating, review count, photo, price range
Availability	Opening status, weekly hours, closed-business status
Booking	Booking availability, provider, and available booking links
Website	Page title, HTTPS, certificate status, platform, response time
Lead intelligence	Opportunity signals, priority score, recommended offer
Monitoring	New, changed, or unchanged status and first/last seen dates

Optional fields depend on what each business and its public website make available.

Google Maps email extractor — contact details enrichment

Enable contact enrichment to inspect public business websites for:

• business email addresses;
• Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and other social profiles;
• likely Contact and About pages;
• email format, disposable-domain, and MX mail-server checks;
• website availability and sales opportunity signals.

Use Only leads with an email when you need an email list instead of all businesses. This filter can significantly reduce the final number of Dataset rows because many businesses do not publish an email address.

Website audit and lead scoring

The optional full audit evaluates public website characteristics such as HTTPS, certificate status, mobile readiness, platform information, response time, online booking, and visible opportunity signals. Results include a 0–100 priority score and a recommended service offer.

Search and filtering

Search using one or many categories, including restaurants, cafes, dentists, doctors, lawyers, plumbers, contractors, real estate agencies, hotels, salons, marketing agencies, software companies, retailers, schools, and custom niches.

Available filters include:

• with or without a website;
• with a phone or email;
• open now or not marked closed;
• without online booking;
• minimum and maximum rating;
• minimum and maximum review count;
• Google business category;
• exact or partial business-name matching;
• minimum lead priority score;
• only new or changed businesses.

Maximum leads to deliver is a hard output cap. For email and lead-score filters, the Actor automatically checks a bounded pool of extra candidates to get closer to the requested count. It can still return fewer rows when the selected niche does not contain enough matching businesses; Standard mode provides broader coverage than Fast mode.

Monitoring new and changed businesses

Enable trackChanges to compare the same search between runs. State is stored in google-maps-city-go-monitor, with a separate record key for each search location, category set and qualification settings. The first run with the new scoped state is a baseline; older unscoped STATE data is retained and is not reused. Keep the same input on repeat runs. Avoid simultaneous runs for the same search: there is no cross-run locking. Monitoring fingerprints include names, addresses, phones, websites, ratings, review counts, contacts, hours and signals. Volatile timestamps are excluded. Failed source/enrichment, Dataset errors and charge limits preserve the saved baseline; if onlyFresh cannot be evaluated, it does not emit unclassified rows as new. This tracks observed cards, not business openings/closures or deletions missing from a truncated search.

Dataset views

• Contacts: names, categories, emails, phones, websites, social links, and addresses.
• Monitoring: change status with first and last seen dates.
• Prioritized leads: lead score, opportunity signals, and recommended offer.
• Website profile: website and email analysis.
• Hours & booking: opening hours and booking availability.
• Maps details: other available Google Maps fields.
• All fields: complete unabridged records.

If email enrichment is disabled, the Contacts view still contains address, phone, website, rating, and Google Maps information; email-related columns remain empty.

Example result

{
  "name": "Example Dental Studio",
  "category": "Dentist",
  "address": "100 Market Street, Chicago, IL",
  "phone": "+1 312-555-0100",
  "website": "https://example.com",
  "email": "hello@example.com",
  "email_status": "mx_verified",
  "email_verification_level": "format_disposable_mx",
  "rating": 4.8,
  "reviews": 126,
  "businessStatus": "OPERATIONAL",
  "priority_score": 91,
  "recommended_offer": "Local SEO and appointment conversion"
}

This is an illustrative record. Available fields depend on the business and the optional enrichment features enabled for the run.

Example input

{
  "country": "us",
  "city": "Chicago",
  "categories": ["dentist", "plumber", "marketing agency"],
  "websiteFilter": "with",
  "maxResults": 1000,
  "concurrency": 250,
  "enrich": true,
  "enrichmentMode": "contacts",
  "enrichmentConcurrency": 500,
  "verifyEmails": true
}

For coordinate search, leave city empty and provide lat, lng, and span. For an exact rectangular search area, provide north, south, east, and west.

Pricing

Pricing is event-based, and Apify platform usage is charged separately. Users pay only for the optional operations they enable and the work that is actually performed.

Event	Price per 1,000 events
Delivered business lead	$1.25 on paid plans; $3 on Free
Website contact enrichment	$0.75
Deep Contact/About page search	$0.50
MX email quality check	$0.50
Full website audit	$1.00
Change monitoring	$0.25

Filtered-out records are not charged as delivered business leads. A readable website without an email is a completed contact inspection and can be charged; 403/blocked/timeout responses without readable content are not charged as contact enrichment. Deep search is charged only when at least one contact page was read; full audit requires raw website markup. Completed optional work can still be billed when an output filter excludes its card. Full audit honors deepContactPages.

The Actor enforces the run's maxTotalChargeUsd across result and optional events. An exhausted event budget stops further delivery and appears as CHARGE_LIMIT_REACHED in SUMMARY. Platform/proxy usage remains separate. On paid plans, a row with contact enrichment and one MX check costs $0.0025 before resources ($0.00125 + $0.00075 + $0.00050); enabling deep search/full audit adds their events. On Free, the base result event alone is $0.003 per row.

Common use cases

Local lead generation: collect restaurants, contractors, dentists, lawyers, salons, agencies, and other businesses with phones, websites, and emails.

Web design and SEO outreach (no-website leads): find local businesses without a website, without online booking, or with visible website improvement opportunities — the exact prospects who need web design, SEO, or marketing services.

Sales territory research: map companies across a city, postal code, coordinate radius, or exact bounding box.

Market monitoring: schedule repeat runs and export only newly discovered or changed businesses.

CRM and AI workflows: send structured business leads to spreadsheets, CRMs, automation tools, or MCP-compatible AI agents.

Frequently asked questions

Can it scrape an entire city?

Standard mode searches multiple centers in the selected area. It can discover more than one viewport, but it does not guarantee an exhaustive city directory.

Can it extract business emails?

Yes. Enable contact enrichment. Deep contact-page search and MX email quality checks are optional and billed only when enabled and performed. MX verification checks published domain mail-server records; it does not verify mailbox existence, SMTP acceptance or deliverability. If the disposable-domain service is unavailable, output explicitly says mx_verified_disposable_unknown.

Can it find businesses without websites?

Yes. Choose Only without a website to build prospect lists for web design, local SEO, marketing, booking, or digital transformation services.

Why is the final result count below Maximum leads to deliver?

The Actor checks extra candidates for email and score filters while keeping the Dataset at or below your maximum. A strict filter can still return fewer rows if the selected area or niche has too few matches. Disable Fast mode for broader city coverage.

Does it work with Apify API and automation tools?

Yes. Run it through Apify Console or API, schedule recurring jobs, trigger webhooks, and connect the Dataset to n8n, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, or your CRM.

Is it legal to scrape Google Maps?

Scraping publicly available information is generally lawful, and this Actor only reads public business listings — it does not log in, bypass access controls, or access private or paywalled data. Google's own Terms of Service, however, restrict automated collection, so you use the results under your own responsibility.

Some fields (for example a phone number, email, or a person's name tied to a small business) can qualify as personal data under laws such as the EU/UK GDPR and the California CCPA/CPRA. When that applies, you — not Apify or the Actor — act as the data controller and are responsible for:

• having a lawful basis (for B2B outreach this is usually legitimate interest);
• honoring data-subject rights (access, correction, deletion, opt-out);
• following marketing/outreach rules (e.g. GDPR/ePrivacy, CAN-SPAM, CASL) before contacting anyone;
• keeping the data secure and using it only for the stated purpose.

Responsible use

• Results come from publicly available business information; availability varies by country, category, business, and website.
• Intended for B2B lead generation and market research — prefer business contacts (e.g. info@, contact@) over personal details.
• Do not use the data for spam, harassment, or any purpose prohibited by applicable law.
• Comply with the privacy, marketing, and data-protection rules of the jurisdictions you operate in and target.

This section is general information, not legal advice. If you are unsure how these rules apply to your use case, consult a qualified lawyer.

API and MCP for AI agents

Use this Actor when you need Google Maps business discovery by area plus optional public website contacts, no-website prospects, or recurring observed-card changes. It searches Google directly over HTTP; no Google API key or login is required. Proxy use may be needed and billed by Apify. Website access and keyless reader/MX sources can fail; inspect diagnostics instead of inventing missing contacts.

Start a run with POST /v2/acts/apivault_labs~google-maps-scraper-emails-contact-details-leads/runs and an Apify bearer token. Poll /v2/actor-runs/{runId} until terminal, then read /v2/datasets/{defaultDatasetId}/items and KVS SUMMARY/ERRORS.

Small search-only example (emails are not extracted from Google listings):

{"country":"us","city":"Boise","categories":["dentist"],"maxResults":5,"fastMode":true,"enrich":false}

For website contacts set enrich:true, enrichmentMode:"contacts", optionally verifyEmails:true and deepContactPages:true. requireEmail:true requires enrich:true, checks a bounded extra pool, and may deliver fewer rows.

Connect a MCP client to https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=apivault_labs/google-maps-scraper-emails-contact-details-leads using an Apify bearer token. Direct tool: apivault_labs--google-maps-scraper-emails-contact-details-leads. The tool returns a run handle, not the complete Dataset: use get-actor-run, then get-dataset-items, and get-key-value-store-record for SUMMARY/ERRORS. MCP waitSecs is a server option, not an Actor input.

Codex configuration (~/.codex/config.toml), with APIFY_TOKEN in the environment:

[mcp_servers.google_maps_leads]
url = "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=apivault_labs/google-maps-scraper-emails-contact-details-leads"
bearer_token_env_var = "APIFY_TOKEN"
startup_timeout_sec = 30
tool_timeout_sec = 120

Claude Code project .mcp.json:

{"mcpServers":{"google-maps-leads":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=apivault_labs/google-maps-scraper-emails-contact-details-leads","headers":{"Authorization":"Bearer ${APIFY_TOKEN}"}}}}

Keep real tokens out of committed files. Agents must have the server connected and the tool enabled; naming Claude/Codex does not automatically install it or guarantee selection. Example request: "Find 5 dentists in Boise with public website contacts; report how many have MX records and list any access failures."

Diagnostics and unavailable fields

Dataset rows contain observed business cards; SUMMARY and ERRORS hold validation, source, enrichment, billing, storage and monitoring diagnostics. INVALID_INPUT, unresolvable geolocation, wholly unreadable Google search, billing errors and Dataset failures fail the run. Useful mixed results remain in Dataset and SUMMARY says PARTIAL. A valid filtered search with zero matches says EMPTY. Error samples are capped at 100 with aggregate counts retained.

Fields absent from a listing remain null/empty. Opening status depends on Google's localized status text; openNowOnly excludes unknown statuses. Review counts, hours, booking and price may be absent. Priority score is a heuristic from observed signals, not a prediction of buying intent. Contacts mode does not perform a full website audit.
