Scrapes business directory data from BrazilYello, the Brazil business directory. Find companies by keyword search, category, or location and extract their contact details, descriptions, and more.

What It Does

The Actor browses BrazilYello and extracts company information into structured data. You can:

• Filter by category - e.g. restaurants, consultants, estate-agents
• Search by keywords - e.g. "Lawyers", "IT consulting", "Bakeries"
• Filter by location - choose one or more Brazilian cities (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Campinas, Porto Alegre, Goiânia, etc.)
• Browse the full directory - leave filters empty to scrape the entire directory

Results are saved as a dataset you can download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

• Individual reviews - Turn on only when needed; it makes the run slower.
• Start page - Use this to resume if a run stops or times out.
