❓ FAQs

What is this Google Maps Scraper App?

It's a desktop app that finds Business Profiles from Google Maps for any category and location you choose — restaurants, dentists, gyms, agencies, and more. In a few clicks you get a clean, exportable list of businesses along with their contact details, so you can reach out and sell to them.

Founders use it to find their first customers; students use it to gather data for research projects.

If you are a developer, this app has a built-in API, an npm package, and a Python library, so you can integrate it into your Python or Node.js scripts and get results in under 5 minutes. The API can also run on AWS and GCP VMs.

<!-- TODO: ADD VIDEO IN HERE, say doing hard, like running the extractor on multiple servers, you might want to talk to our -->

What data can I get from it?

For every business, you get the major data points you need to sell:

• Name, Main Category, and Address
• Phone number
• Website
• Email and social profiles (via enrichment)
• Rating and number of reviews

That's just the start — the tool extracts 50+ data points in total. See the full list in advanced.md (Are there any usage limits?).

On top of the raw data, business enrichment gets you sales-ready contacts: verified emails, decision-makers (CEO, Founder, etc.), and phone carrier info so you don't waste time on landlines.

🔍 What are the various search strategies, and which one should I use?

This is slightly complex stuff, but if you want 10,000+ leads in a city, you must understand this.

There are 5 kinds of search strategies:

• Fast (Default)
• Fastest
• Detailed
• By Zoom Level (15, 16, 17, 18)
• By Geolocation

Let's see when to use which strategy:

Fast (Default):

• Returns 120–1600 results per city.
• Completes in 1–10 minutes per city.
• When to use:
  • Best for country-level extraction (completes in 1–2 days).

Fastest:

• Slightly faster than Fast mode (~30 seconds per city), but returns ~30–40 fewer results.
• When to use:
  • When speed is the top priority and a small reduction in results is acceptable.

Detailed:

• Returns more results than Fast mode, but takes significantly longer.
• When to use:
  • Best for single-city or state level extraction where thoroughness matters.
• When not to use:
  • Not recommended for country-level extraction due to high time requirements.
  • Tip: Set "Max Results" to 1000 per city, otherwise large cities like New York can take 2+ hours.

By Zoom Level (15, 16, 17, 18):

• Various Zoom Level sizes are given below:
  • Zoom 15: Neighborhood Level
  • Zoom 16: Sub-Neighborhood Level
  • Zoom 17: Block Level (Time consuming)
  • Zoom 18: Street Level (Very time consuming)
• When to use:
  • When you want the absolute highest results. Use Zoom 18. It can take 3-4 hours, but you will have thousands of results for big cities like New York City.
• When not to use:
  • Not recommended for country-level extraction. It can take 3-4 hours for a single city.

By Geolocation:

• Search a specific latitude/longitude or inside a polygon.
• When to use:
  • Getting results that are only in a speci
