🚀 How it works (the engine under the hood)

Leads Scraper runs a multi-stage discovery-and-enrichment pipeline powered by custom algorithms:

1. 🎯 Intelligent targeting — you choose a sector and country (and optional cities). The Actor maps your niche to global open business datasets and the open web, fanning out across locations for maximum coverage.
2. 🌐 Modern website crawling — it visits each company's site (home, contact, about, team & individual people pages) using a fast, lightweight HTTP engine — no bloated browser, so it's cheap and scales to thousands of sites per run.
3. 🧠 Smart extraction — proprietary parsers pull emails, phones, socials and named decision-makers with titles from each page, filtering out junk, third-party and placeholder data.
4. 🔑 Email-pattern intelligence — it detects each company's email format and (optionally) reconstructs likely decision-maker emails.
5. ✔️ Verification — every email is checked for syntax and live MX records, then labeled found_mx_valid, guessed_mx_valid, etc. — so you know exactly what you're sending to.

The result: the freshest, most targeted lead list on the market — built in minutes.

📤 Output

One clean record per company:

{

  "domain": "wolflawcolorado.com",

  "country": "United States",
  "sector": "lawyer",
  "address": "South Colorado Boulevard, 1385, Denver, 80222",
  "emailPattern": "first",
  "companyEmails": [
    { "email": "info@wolflawcolorado.com", "source": "page", "status": "found_mx_valid" }
  ],
  "persons": [
    { "name": "Jeffrey Wolf", "title": "Attorney", "email": "jeffrey@wolflawcolorado.com", "emailSource": "page", "status": "found_mx_valid" }
  ],
  "phones": ["+17207898926"],

  "scrapedAt": "2026-05-21T10:00:00.000Z"
}

Email status labels

Status	Meaning
found_mx_valid	Email found on the website; domain accepts mail ✅
guessed_mx_valid	Built from the company's email pattern; domain accepts mail
found / guessed	Verification turned off
no_mx	Domain has no mail server (filtered out by default)

ℹ️ ~15–28% of B2B domains are "catch-all", where individual mailboxes can't be confirmed — these stay at *_mx_valid. Pattern-built emails are always clearly labeled guessed, so you stay in control of deliverability.

❓ FAQ

Is this a free Apollo.io alternative? Yes — it generates B2B leads (emails, phones, decision-makers) without an Apollo, ZoomInfo or Lusha account, no cookies, and no export credits. You only pay for your Apify usage.

Do I need to log in to any website? No. There are no logins, no cookies and no captchas to solve.

How fresh is the data? 100% real-time. Every lead is crawled live at the moment you run the Actor — never a recycled list.

Can I export to CSV / Excel / Google Sheets / my CRM? Yes — export to CSV, Excel, JSON, XML, RSS, or push straight to your stack via the Apify API & integrations (HubSpot, Salesforce, Make, Zapier, n8n…).

Will every company have an email? No — coverage depends on the niche and how each business publishes its data. Some return rich email + decision-maker data, others only phone + address. Turn requireEmail on to keep only email-bearing leads, or off for maximum volume.

Can I scrape thousands of leads in one run? Yes. Increase maxLeads — the engine scales to thousands of companies per run.

Is web scraping legal? The Actor collects publicly available business information. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with GDPR, CAN-SPAM and other applicable regulations and the target sites' terms.

🏷️ Tips for best results

• Start with maxLeads: 100 to preview quality, then scale up.
• Use specific sectors (personal injury lawyer beats lawyer) for sharper targeting.
• Enable Apify Proxy for large runs.
• Pick email-rich verticals (agencies, law firms, insurance) when you need maximum named-contact emails; expect more phone/address than email in trades & local services.
