Apollo Scraper Alternative ✅ Leads & Emails from an Apollo URL

Built the search in Apollo? Paste the URL, run the same search here and get every lead with a live email, no Apollo seat, no export credits. An Apollo scraper alternative that never touches Apollo: the same titles, seniority, locations, company sizes, industries and keywords run on our own database of 800M+ B2B profiles. From $1.50 per 1,000 leads; people without an email are skipped and cost nothing.

• ✅ Paste and run. Copy the address bar of an Apollo people search (https://app.apollo.io/#/people?...) into one field. Nothing else to set. The status line opens with Apollo URL read as: …, the filters in this Actor's own words, before the first lead is charged.
• ✅ A live email on every lead. A work address on the current employer's domain, or a personal mailbox. Addresses that only match an old employer never ship. Those are the ones that bounce.
• ✅ No minimum order, no charge for misses. Pay per lead delivered, from the first one. Skipped people, repeats and note rows are free.
• ✅ Mobile numbers on request, charged only on leads that carry one.
• ✅ No login, no cookies, no browser. Nothing is scraped from Apollo or any network while your run is in progress.

Run Apollo Scraper Alternative from Python, Node.js or the API

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("b2bsearch/apollo-url-leads-scraper").call(run_input={
    "apolloUrl": "https://app.apollo.io/#/people?personTitles[]=vp%20sales&personLocations[]=United%20States",
    "maxResults": 100,

Measured

Runs on the live database on 2026-10-04, US heads and VPs of sales at companies with 50–500 employees:

Other segments the same day: UK marketing directors in software, 67% with a live email; German CTOs at companies under 200 people, 60%. About a third of US sales leads also have a verified mobile number on record.

What the URL carries

Read from the URL: job titles, excluded titles, seniority (owner/founder, C-suite, VP, director, manager), person and company locations, company size ranges, industries (every Apollo industry tag is mapped), keywords and company domains. Page, sort and the email-status facet are the view, not the search, and are left out.

A filter in the URL this Actor cannot read stops the run by name before anything is charged: remove it in Apollo, copy the URL again and rerun. The exclude fields on the form join the URL; any other filter field typed next to a URL is refused, so a run never widens past what you asked for.

No URL? Clear the field and use the filter fields below instead. They are the same ones B2B Leads Finder takes.

Input

{
  "apolloUrl": "https://app.apollo.io/#/people?personTitles[]=vp%20sales&personLocations[]=United%20States&organizationNumEmployeesRanges[]=51%2C200",
  "emailType": "any",
  "maxResults": 100
}

Output

One row per lead:

Rows with another _status are free notes: how many people were skipped for having no live email, how many were over the per-company cap. The values above are fictional.

Pricing

A lead is one distinct person delivered with a live email. Not charged: people without one, repeats, people from your excluded datasets, every note row. The number event is charged only on leads that come back with a verified mobile number. A small per-run start fee applies (Pricing tab).

FAQ

Is this Actor part of Apollo, or does it scrape Apollo?

No, on both counts. It reads the filters out of the URL you paste and runs them on our own database. It never logs in to Apollo and never spends its credits. It is not affiliated with Apollo.io.

Is this allowed under Apollo's terms?

This Actor does not log in to Apollo, call its API or copy its data. The URL is text from your own browser bar; the Actor reads the filters in it and runs them on our own database. The only Apollo page involved is the search you already have open.

Will I get the same people Apollo shows?

The same kind of people: the filters are the same, the database is ours. Counts differ, and so does email coverage: see Measured above.

My URL was refused. What now?

The message names the filter that cannot be read. Remove it in Apollo, copy the URL again and rerun. Nothing was charged.

Can I run it from n8n, Make or an AI agent?

Yes. The Actor is a tool on the Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com?tools=b2bsearch/apollo-url-leads-scraper) and a step in n8n, Make and Zapier. Cap what one call may spend with maxTotalChargeUsd.

Free Apify plan

Free accounts get the same rows as paid ones, with three limits. A run delivers at most 100 results when started from Apify Console and 25 when started through the API, a schedule or an integration; an account gets 500 dataset rows per calendar month on this Actor, found rows and misses alike; and a row that finds nothing carries only its status. Previews and counts, where this Actor offers them, stay free and outside the monthly allowance. When a limit stops a run, the status line and the last dataset row say which limit it was, what is left and when it resets. Any paid Apify plan removes all of this: Starter is $19/month and includes $19 of usage.

Feedback and reviews

How did it go? A rating on this Actor's Reviews page tells the next buyer what to expect; we read every word, good or bad. Got a wrong or stale row? Open the Issues tab with the run ID. Issues are public, so leave out emails, phones and names; the run ID is enough for us to find the row. We check every report, fix what is ours to fix and answer in the thread.
