Yandex Maps Scraper: Leads, Emails & Website Check

Business leads from Yandex Maps for Russia, Türkiye, Kazakhstan and the CIS: phones, website, Telegram/WhatsApp/VK/Instagram, hours, rating and owner verification for any query in any city, plus an optional website check that tells you whether each listed website works and which emails it publishes.

• 📍 Whole cities, top places first. A search starts with the places Yandex ranks highest, then covers the area map view by map view (a full view is split into smaller ones), so a city is not cut off after the first result pages. Only places inside Yandex's outline of the city or district are kept.
• ☎️ Contacts ready for a CRM. Phones in E.164 (+74951399271), the business website without the usual tracking parameters (utm_*, yclid, call-tracking tags…), and every social link Yandex lists (Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, VK, Facebook and YouTube in their own columns; all of them, including MAX, Viber, OK and TikTok, in socialLinks).
• ✉️ Emails with their source. The website check opens the listed website (and its contact page) and returns each email with the page it was found on and its kind: the website's own domain, free mail (gmail, mail.ru, yandex…) or another domain.
• 🩺 Website health. Every listed website gets a status: ok, domain-not-found, dns-error, parked, spam, hacked, empty, protected, blocked, unreachable or redirects-to-platform, with the reason (no-website when Yandex lists none).

Input & filters

Field	What it does	Default
queries	What you would type into Yandex Maps, one per line (стоматология, diş kliniği, кафе). A place found by several queries is delivered once.	—
location	City, district or region in any language (Москва, Kazan, Kadıköy, İstanbul, Алматы). The whole area is searched, and only places inside Yandex's outline of it are kept (the surrounding rectangle when Yandex has no outline).	—
coordinates + radiusKm	Search around a point instead: "55.7558, 37.6176" and a radius in km (places within that distance). Overrides location.	radius 3
maxResults	Places for the whole run, shared by all queries. The places Yandex ranks highest come first (its first four result pages), then the map views of the whole area, starting with those nearest the centre. 0 = the whole area (safety caps: 100,000 places per run, 2,000 Yandex requests per query).	500
checkWebsites	Website check: status, emails, Instagram/WhatsApp/Telegram from the website.	on
leadFilter	Only places with a phone, a website or an email. Others are skipped and not charged.	all
minRating	Skip places rated below 3.5 / 4 / 4.5 / 4.8 (and unrated ones).	any
skipClosed	Skip places Yandex marks as permanently closed.	on
language	Output language: ru, tr, en or automatic: from the country of location (Turkish for Türkiye, Russian for Russia and the CIS, English elsewhere); with coordinates, Turkish inside Türkiye's bounding box and Russian elsewhere; for place links, the link's Yandex domain.	automatic
placeUrls	Yandex Maps place links or ids, to read specific places (filters do not apply to them).	—
proxyConfiguration, residentialFallback	Apify Proxy (datacenter pool by default); switch to residential proxy if Yandex keeps refusing.	on

Without location and coordinates, Yandex reads the place from the query text (кафе Казань) and only the first eight result pages are read.

Example inputs (copy & paste)

Dentists in Moscow that publish an email:

{ "queries": ["стоматология"], "location": "Москва", "maxResults": 200, "leadFilter": "with-email" }

Dental clinics across the whole of Eskişehir (Türkiye), in Turkish:

{ "queries": ["diş kliniği"], "location": "Eskişehir", "maxResults": 0 }

Cafés within 2 km of a point in Kadıköy, rated 4.5 or higher:

{ "queries": ["kafe"], "coordinates": "40.9819, 29.0303", "radiusKm": 2, "minRating": "4.5", "maxResults": 100 }

Specific places by their Yandex Maps links:

{ "placeUrls": ["https://yandex.ru/maps/org/sozvezdiye/18986838066/", "https://yandex.com.tr/harita/org/serdent/35634361041/"] }

Use cases

• B2B lead lists for sales teams and agencies in Russia, Türkiye, Kazakhstan and the CIS: a category in a city, with phones, messengers and emails.
• Web-design and marketing agencies: find businesses whose listed website is dead, parked, hacked or missing (websiteStatus).
• Local SEO and reputation tracking: rating, number of ratings, written reviews and owner verification for the competitors in a district; repeat the run on a schedule and join on placeId.
• Market mapping: the clinics, cafés or car services Yandex Maps lists across a city, where they are (coordinates) and which chains they belong to.
• Data hygiene: refresh the phones, websites and website status of places you already have, by their Yandex Maps links (placeUrls).

How it searches a whole city

A single Yandex Maps query pages poorly: in our tests four pages of 25 gave only 53–86 different places, because later pages repeat earlier ones. A small map view, however, returns the places inside it. The Actor therefore reads an area in two steps:

1. Yandex's own order first: the first four result pages for a view around the centre of the area, in the order Yandex's search returns them (at most 100 places; fewer, because later pages repeat earlier ones). A run with a small maxResults gets these first.
2. Then view by view, starting with the views nearest the centre: a view that comes back full (25 results) is split into four smaller views; the smallest views are paged.

Every place is delivered once per run (by placeId) and only if it lies inside Yandex's outline of the location, or within radiusKm of the point. Yandex does not return every business of a view for a query, so a whole-area search finds more than the map views alone (153 against 142 dental clinics in Eskişehir) but may still miss some. Rows are written as their website checks finish, so the dataset is not in Yandex's order.

Performance

Test runs of version 0.1.13 on the Apify platform on 2026-10-01 (512 MB memory, website check on):

Run	Places	Time	Yandex requests	Places with website checked
стоматология, Москва, 20 places (the default input)	20	29–30 s	4–6	20
diş kliniği, Eskişehir, whole city	153	42–70 s	34	51
Eleven searches in Russia, Türkiye and Kazakhstan, 100 places each	100	35–82 s	12–32	11–96
стоматология, Москва, 1,200 places	1,200	493 s	178	1,126

• A slow website is given about 30 s, and one that does not answer the platform up to 20 s more through the proxy (the slowest in these runs took 53 s), so one slow website can add up to about 50 s to a short run.
• A city search also reads the places around the city and drops them (not charged): the 1,200-place Moscow run got 1,400 search results outside Moscow's outline (repeats counted), which is why it needed 178 Yandex requests.
• Looking up the area (the city's outline on Yandex) took 2–19 s in these runs. Yandex's answer for a big city is several megabytes and some sessions are slow to deliver it, so a second request on another session starts after 8 s; before that change it took more than 20 s in 15 of 91 runs, up to 102 s.
• In 171 test runs on the platform whose request counts were saved (3,651 Yandex requests, all versions; 64 more short input-check runs all succeeded) Yandex showed no captcha and no rate limit; 21 slow answers were retried through a fresh IP, no search failed and the residential fallback was never needed.
• 512 MB of memory is enough: the 1,200-place run peaked at 296 MB; the highest peak in these runs was 377 MB (200 places with the email filter).

Data quality

Measured in test runs of version 0.1.13 on the Apify platform on 2026-10-01. The share of places with each field depends on the country, the category and how far into a city you go.

The first 100 places of a search (Yandex's top-ranked places first, then the map views nearest the centre; 11 searches, 1,100 places):

Field	Russia (500)	Türkiye (500)	Kazakhstan (100)
Phone	99.8%	98%	100%
Own website	80%	31%	64%
Email (website check)	47%	18%	31%
Any social link	90%	64%	88%
Rating	99%	86%	100%
Working hours	99.8%	89%	99%
Owner verified on Yandex	70%	0.4%	10%

Russia: dentists in Moscow, cafés in Saint Petersburg, car services in Kazan, lawyers in Yekaterinburg, beauty salons in Novosibirsk. Türkiye: cafés in Kadıköy, car services in İzmir, dental clinics in Eskişehir, hairdressers in Antalya, lawyers in Ankara. Kazakhstan: dentists in Almaty.

Whole-city searches:

Search	Places	Phone	Own website	Email	Rating	Working hours
стоматология, Москва (stopped at 1,200 places)	1,200	99.8%	94%	65%	100%	99.9%
diş kliniği, Eskişehir (the whole city)	153	96%	33%	22%	60%	63%

• The category matters as much as the country: an email was found for 70% of Moscow dentists, 62% of Yekaterinburg lawyers and 37% of Ankara lawyers, but for 29% of Kazan car services, 8% of İzmir car services and 6% of Antalya hairdressers.
• A whole-city search also reaches small practices with fewer details: in Eskişehir the rating was filled for 60% and the hours for 63% of the whole city, against 80% and 64% of the first 100 places.
• Of 619 places with their own website in the eleven 100-place searches (554 different websites), 542 opened normally (ok); 35 had almost no text in their HTML (empty, possibly a JavaScript-only site), 20 could not be read (unreachable: an HTTP error such as 404 or 5xx, a TLS certificate error, a refused connection or no answer), 7 showed a bot check (protected), 5 refused our check (blocked), 4 carried spam, 3 were parked, 2 had a DNS error and 1 had no domain. An email was found for 353 of the 619.
• Some websites do not answer the Apify platform's own address: in the 1,200-place Moscow run 47 did not, and 42 of them opened through Apify Proxy.
• Yandex hides the score of a few places that have ratings (2 of 1,100): rating is empty there, never 0.
• Emails come only from the website Yandex lists for the business (home page and contact page). Regulators' and insurance funds' addresses that Russian clinic sites must show, counter and placeholder addresses, hosting-provider addresses and the pages of booking, directory and link services are left out; a few such addresses may still slip through.
• Each place is delivered once per run: placeId was unique in every test run of version 0.1.13 (1,200 of 1,200 in the largest).

Pricing

Pay per event:

• place: one per delivered place row;
• site-checked: one per delivered place whose website was checked (only when the website check is on and Yandex lists the business's own website, not only a social, booking or directory page).

Status rows, duplicates, places outside the area and places removed by your filters are not charged. A run never delivers more places than your "Maximum cost per run" allows. See the Pricing tab for the current prices.

FAQ

Do I need a Yandex account or an API key? No.

Which countries work? Russia, Türkiye and Kazakhstan were measured (see Data quality). Yandex Maps also covers the rest of the CIS and other countries; those were not measured here. Use Russian queries in Russia and the CIS and Turkish queries in Türkiye.

Why do Turkish places have fewer websites and almost no owner verification? That is what Yandex Maps holds for Türkiye (see Data quality).

Where do the emails come from? From the business's own website only (home page and contact page). Yandex Maps itself shows no emails.

What does hacked mean? The website looks like the business's own (its name is in the page title or the domain), but the page links to gambling sites.

Is a place delivered twice when two queries find it? No. Each place is delivered and charged once per run.

Can I get reviews? Not in this version: the Actor delivers the rating and the number of ratings and reviews, not the review texts.

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes. placeId is stable, so you can compare ratings, hours or website status between runs.

Troubleshooting

• No results: check the spelling of the location; try a Russian query in Russia and the CIS. The free status row and the SOURCE_REPORT record in the key-value store say why each search delivered nothing.
• Fewer places than maxResults: the area has no more places for that query, or filters removed them (the log counts both).
• A website shows blocked or unreachable: blocked means the site answered 401, 403, 429 or 451. unreachable means another HTTP error (404, 5xx…), a TLS certificate error, a refused connection or no answer; only a site that does not answer is tried again through Apify Proxy. Either may still work from another network.
• Short share links (/maps/-/…) are not supported; open the link and paste the full place URL.

Notes, limits & legal

• The Actor reads public Yandex Maps listings and the public websites of the listed businesses. It does not log in.
• Yandex's terms restrict automated and commercial use of its content; you are responsible for how you use the data.
• Phone numbers and emails of sole proprietors, and free-mail addresses, can be personal data under GDPR, KVKK (Türkiye) or 152-FZ (Russia). Check your marketing law before cold outreach (in Türkiye, Law 6563 art. 6).
• Names, addresses and categories come in Yandex's own translation for the chosen language.
• A region's outline on Yandex can include the city it surrounds: a search in Московская область also returns places in Moscow (in a test, the first 20 were all in Moscow). Filter on city if you need the region without the city.
