Google Maps Scraper & Places API – Business Leads Extractor

Get every business Google Maps shows for a search, as clean rows: name, category, full address, phone, website, rating, number of reviews, opening hours, coordinates and the Google Maps link. Search any city, region or country, or around exact coordinates, up to 700 places per search, and filter by rating, reviews, website and phone before you pay. Built for lead generation, local SEO agencies, sales teams, market research and AI agents that need local business data. A cheaper Google Places API alternative, with no API key or quota to manage. The data comes through a licensed data provider (DataForSEO), not by scraping Google from a browser, so runs do not fail on captchas or blocks.

What you get

• Every business in a Google Maps search, in Google's order, up to 700 per search.
• Contact data the business lists publicly: phone and website (plus the website domain).
• Address in parts: street, city, postal code, region, country code, latitude and longitude.
• Reputation: rating, number of reviews and reviews per star.
• Opening hours per weekday, categories, whether the owner has claimed the listing, number of photos, main photo, online booking link.
• Ids: Google place id, CID and a Google Maps link.
• Filters before charging: minimum rating, minimum reviews, only with (or without) a website, only with (or without) a phone. "Only without a website" finds businesses that may need one.
• No double charging: a business found by several searches is returned and charged once.

Business data only: no e-mails, no review texts, no reviewer names or other people.

Pricing

Pay per event, no subscription:

• $2 per 1,000 places ($0.002 per business returned).
• $0.001 per search per started 100 places asked for (Max places 1-100 = $0.001, 700 = $0.007).
• $0.001 per run start.

Examples: 100 dentists in one city cost about $0.20. 1,000 businesses from 10 searches cost about $2.01.

You can cap the cost of a run with the maximum charge setting; the Actor only starts the searches the budget covers. Failed searches are never charged. Live searches need a paid Apify plan (any plan); the pre-filled example works on the free plan.

Good to know

• Google Maps itself shows at most a few hundred places for one search; a narrow search or a small town has fewer than you ask for.
• Phone numbers and websites are the ones the business lists on Google Maps.
• Results usually arrive in under a minute.
• Use it from the API, on a schedule, in n8n/Make/Zapier, or from AI agents through MCP (rowfeed-seo-mcp).
