[1k/2.5$] IMDb Phone Number Scraper - extract phone numbers and contact details of film professionals and studios from IMDb in seconds. Export clean JSON, CSV or Excel data for lead generation, cold calling, sales outreach and market research.
A list of keywords to search for. (Example: John, marketing, etc.)
[ "actor", "director"]ON (default): "Max Phone Numbers" is a target for EACH keyword, so the scraper works through every keyword instead of stopping once the first one fills up. OFF: it is a single total for the whole run. ⚠️ Heads-up: with this ON the run can collect (and be billed for) Max Phone Numbers × number of keywords, and takes proportionally longer.
Select a country to scrape related phone numbers.
Optional extra countries searched in the same run, so one job can cover for example the United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia. Every country is searched on its own with its own dial code, and only numbers valid for that country are kept for it, so numbers from different markets never get mixed up (the country and dial_code fields of each row show which one found it). The country chosen above is always included. When "Per Keyword Scrape Max Contacts" is ON, each keyword + country (+ location) combination gets its own limit. The searches multiply: 2 keywords × 3 countries = 6 searches, so pair a long list with the total phone number limit. Cities in "Cities or regions" are used for every country, so leave that list empty or use names that make sense everywhere.
[]Optional cities, regions or neighbourhoods used to find local businesses and creators, for example: London, Manchester, Leeds. Every location is searched on its own together with each keyword, so one run can cover many places. They are search words only: the selected Country still decides the dial code and which phone numbers are accepted. Leave the list empty to search the whole country. When "Per Keyword Scrape Max Contacts" is ON, each keyword + location combination gets its own limit. The searches multiply: 3 keywords × 5 locations = 15 searches, so pair a long list with the total phone number limit below. A number found under more than one location is only saved once.
[]Controls the contact words the search relies on. 'WhatsApp numbers' (default, the original behaviour) looks for pages that mention WhatsApp next to a number with the selected dial code. 'Call or booking numbers' looks for pages that use words such as call, phone, tel, mobile, booking or contact instead, which suits salons, clinics, restaurants, studios and other businesses that take bookings by phone. 'Any number' drops the contact word and only needs your keyword and the dial code: it reaches the most pages but brings more noise, so combine it with the filters below. Every number is still validated for the selected country.
Keeps only pages that Google has indexed or updated within the chosen period. Useful for scheduled runs that should surface fresh posts and newly active accounts, and for skipping abandoned profiles. Google applies the date to the page as it knows it, so profile pages without a clear date can be left out, and shorter periods return far fewer results. 'Any time' (default) applies no date filter, which is the original behaviour.
Maximum number of phone numbers to collect. The scraper will stop once this limit is reached. Setting a higher limit allows for more potential results but doesn't guarantee reaching that number. This helps save costs by controlling scraping time.
A hard stop for the entire run, across every keyword and location. Once this many phone numbers have been collected the run finishes cleanly and keeps everything found so far. Use it to keep pay-per-result costs predictable: with "Per Keyword Scrape Max Contacts" ON, 20 keywords with a limit of 50 each could otherwise return up to 1,000 numbers. Leave at 0 to rely only on Max Phone Numbers above.
Every keyword + location combination is its own search, and the searches do not depend on each other, so the Actor can run several at the same time instead of one after another. Most of a search is spent waiting for Google, so 4 searches at a time finish a long list roughly 3 to 4 times sooner, at the same cost per result. Limits, duplicate removal, filters and the total limit work exactly as before: an number found by two searches at once is still saved only once, and the total limit is never exceeded. What changes is the order: rows arrive as searches finish, and an number that several searches find is credited to whichever found it first. Set 1 to run one search at a time in the original order. Higher numbers finish sooner but send more requests at once, which can slow Google's answers down; 10 is the maximum. It makes no difference when there is only one search.
Keep only mobile numbers (best for WhatsApp, SMS and personal outreach) or only landlines (shops, clinics, offices). The type comes from the numbering plan of the selected country, so it is a good guide but not a guarantee. In countries where mobile and landline numbers share the same ranges (for example the United States and Canada) the type cannot be told apart, and those numbers are kept by both filters. Toll-free, VoIP, premium-rate and other special numbers are only kept with 'Any type of number'.
A bio or caption sometimes lists several numbers (for example a landline and a WhatsApp number), and by default each one is saved as its own row. Switch this on to keep only the first number found for each IMDb account, so every row is a different account and you pay for one number per account. When a result cannot be tied to an account, the page itself counts as the profile. Off by default.
Only keep numbers that start with one of these area codes or prefixes, for example to target a single city or only mobile ranges. Write each one with the international dial code and a plus sign: +44 20 (London), +1 212 (Manhattan), +49 30 (Berlin), +44 7 (UK mobile numbers). Spaces, dashes and brackets are ignored. Leave empty to accept every number. A prefix from another country than the one selected matches nothing. Numbers outside the list are not saved, not counted towards your limits and not charged.
[]A quality filter that drops numbers which are very unlikely to reach a real person: repeated or sequential digits (for example 07777 777777 or 01234 567890) and premium-rate or shared-cost numbers, which are usually paid service lines. Off by default, so existing setups behave as before. Skipped numbers are not saved and not charged.
Most Google results for IMDb are not profiles: they are individual posts, reels and explore / tag pages. Switch this on to keep only results that point to a profile page (imdb.com/username), so every saved row is one account. Recommended for influencer and B2B lead lists. Off by default, so existing setups behave as before.
Only keep profiles with at least this many followers. Handy for skipping empty or brand-new accounts. When a follower filter is set, results whose follower count Google does not show (this includes most posts and reels) are skipped.
Only keep profiles with at most this many followers. Combine with the minimum to target a range, for example 10,000 to 100,000 for micro-influencers. Profiles for which Google shows no follower count are skipped when this filter is set.
Words or phrases that must appear in the page's title or description snippet. A result is kept only if it contains at least one of them, for example: booking, appointments, orders, collab. Matching ignores letter case, and single words only match as whole words. Leave empty to keep every result. This is stricter than the search keywords, which Google matches loosely. If a result contains both an include word and an exclude word, it is skipped.
[]Applies to 'Must-include words'. 'Any one of the words' keeps a result that contains at least one of them (the original behaviour). 'All of the words' keeps a result only if it contains every word, for stricter targeting, for example booking AND whatsapp. Has no effect while the must-include list is empty.
Words or phrases you do not want to see, for example: escort, crypto, giveaway. If any of them appears in a page's title or description snippet, that whole snippet is skipped and no phone number is taken from it. Matching ignores letter case, and single words only match as whole words. Leave empty to keep every snippet.
[]Adds these fields to every row: phoneType (mobile, landline, voip, toll-free and so on, or unknown), carrier (the network the number was originally allocated to, when known), numberArea (the city or region of a landline, when known), phoneInternational (for example +44 113 496 0789), phoneNational (for example 0113 496 0789) and whatsappLink (for example https://wa.me/441134960789). Carrier and area come from an offline numbering-plan database: a number that has since moved to another network can still show its original carrier, and the area is only available for some countries. A WhatsApp link opens a chat but does not prove that the number has a WhatsApp account.
Adds these fields to every row: username (the IMDb handle, when it can be identified), pageType (profile, post, reel or other), followersCount (when Google shows it in the result, otherwise empty) and influencerTier (nano, micro, macro or mega, worked out from followersCount). Everything comes from the Google result, so no extra requests are made and no IMDb login is used.
When the same bio or caption snippet also contains an email address, return it in an emails field next to the phone number, so one row carries both contact channels. Off by default because email addresses are personal data and a snippet can be cut off, so review them before use.
When switched on, the run loads the list of phone numbers saved under the history name below, skips any number already on it, and adds every new number to it. The result is a dataset that contains only new leads, which is ideal for scheduled runs. Off by default, so every run starts from scratch.
Name of the saved history used by 'Skip phone numbers found in earlier runs'. Use the same name across runs to share one history, or a different name for each campaign to keep campaigns separate. Only lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens, 3–63 characters. The history is kept in a named Apify storage that stays in your account until you delete it.
Phone numbers that must never appear in the results, for example people who asked not to be contacted, existing customers, or contacts already in your CRM. Enter full numbers in any common format (+44 113 496 0789 or 0113 496 0789; local formats are read for the selected country), or end a prefix with an asterisk to skip a whole range (for example +4470*). A skipped number is not saved and not charged.
[]IMDb accounts whose results must never be saved, for example competitors, existing customers or brands you already work with. Enter usernames (the @ is optional) or profile links such as imdb.com/brandname. Matching ignores letter case. A skipped account is not saved and not charged.
[]Caps how deep every search may go, for example 5 = the first 50 Google results. A search normally ends by itself when Google runs out of results or several pages in a row bring nothing new, so a cap only matters if you want shorter, cheaper runs. Leave at 0 for no cap.
A search ends when this many result pages in a row bring no new phone number. The default of 3 is a good balance. Raise it (5 to 10) to dig deeper on keywords with sparse results, at the cost of more requests and a longer run; lower it to finish sooner.
