Google My Business Scraper
Extract data from Google Maps and Google Business Profile listings by city and category. Export business name, address, phone numbers, website, reviews, place ID, coordinates and contact emails in a clean CSV — turn any city into a ready-to-call list of business leads.
Quick answer
What is a Google My Business scraper?
A Google My Business scraper — also called a Google Maps scraper, G Maps extractor or Google Business Profile scraper — is a web scraping tool for data extraction from Google Maps and Google Places.
It turns every search engine results page on Google Maps into a structured dataset. For each listing the scraper pulls business name, full address, telephone number, website, category, rating, review count, hours, place ID (the unique identifier), exact coordinates (latitude/longitude), and — where publicly available — a contact email.
How Scrupp's Google business profile extractor works
Scrupp runs as a Google Chrome extension. Paste a query string for any city and niche (e.g. "dentists in Austin, TX" or "plumbers in Chicago"), and a cloud server handles pagination through Google map scraping tiles. You get a Comma-separated values (CSV) file of business profiles back in minutes — ready to turn into qualified business leads.
Most common use cases
- Local SEO audits. Search engine optimization agencies targeting small-business customers run data collection on the top 50-100 competitors in a city.
- Customer service and outreach. Agencies and B2B vendors reach local businesses by email and phone — marketing, insurance, payroll, web design.
- Competitor mapping and business intelligence. Track presence across Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter alongside the core Google Maps data.
How it works
Scrape Google Maps data — extract business profiles in three steps
Enter a business category and a city (e.g. "dentists in Austin, TX"). Scrupp expands this into multiple Google Maps search queries to maximize coverage.
The cloud engine walks through every page of results, bypassing Google's 20-result cap, collecting all businesses that match your criteria.
Each business gets phone, website, and (where available) contact email extracted from the business site. Download as CSV ready for your CRM.
Features
Extract business data from Google — business name, phone numbers, place ID, coordinates
Name, full address, phone number, website URL, category, claimed/unclaimed status.
Average rating, total review count, review timestamps. Filter leads by rating thresholds.
For businesses with a website, Scrupp crawls the contact page and extracts any public email addresses, then verifies them via SMTP.
Google Maps UI caps at 20 results per search — Scrupp splits queries into smaller geographic tiles to get all 200+ matching businesses in a city.
Use cases
Who uses a Google Maps extractor — and why
Local data collection has moved from Google Places API scripts to one-click Google business profile scraper tools. These are the four customer profiles that drive ~80% of Scrupp's Google My Business traffic.
Local SEO agencies
Search engine optimization consultancies export every competitor's business profile in a target city — rating distribution, review velocity, category tags, unclaimed listings. The CSV feeds directly into their SEO audit templates and competitive-analysis dashboards.
B2B sales and marketing teams
Sales reps pulling local leads use the extractor to build outbound lists by city + category — then push verified business emails and telephone numbers into HubSpot or Salesforce. Marketing teams slice the same data for paid ads and direct mail.
Business intelligence and research
Analysts track market share, category growth, and rating benchmarks across cities. Exporting coordinates + place ID lets you join the Google Maps dataset with your own BI warehouse for geo-spatial analysis — no Web scraping code to maintain.
Customer service and operations
Franchises and multi-location brands audit every location's Google Business Profile for NAP consistency, open hours, and response rates. The extractor replaces what used to take a VA 4 hours per city with a 2-minute export.
Output
Every field the scraper extracts
The CSV output maps cleanly into any spreadsheet or database. Each row is one Google Business Profile, de-duplicated by place ID.
Identity fields
- Place ID — unique Google identifier, stable across renames.
- Business name as shown on the Google Maps listing.
- Category (primary + sub-categories) — stable query string taxonomy.
Contact fields
- Telephone number — directly from the listing.
- Website URL — the linked homepage.
- Business email — extracted from the linked website and SMTP-verified where publicly available.
Location fields
- Street address, city, postal code, state, country.
- Latitude + longitude — exact coordinates for geo queries.
Reputation fields
- Average rating (1-5 scale).
- Review count and review timestamps.
- Claimed/unclaimed status.
Data extraction runs in our cloud — no Google Chrome session hijacking, no bot footprint on your own computer. The data scraping pipeline respects Google's rate limits and uses residential proxies for consistent results across cities.
Alternatives
Google business profile scraper vs G Maps extractor vs Places API
Three ways to extract business data from Google Maps — and which delivers ready-to-call business leads fastest.
Google Places API
Official Google Places endpoint. Returns place ID, coordinates, phone numbers but capped at $200/month free then $17/1k requests. No email enrichment — you'd still need a separate pipeline for contact collection.
Generic G Maps extractor
Point-and-click extractor tools scrape Google Maps results into a CSV but stop at the public listing. You get business name, address, coordinates — no email discovery, no SMTP verification, no deduplication across tiles.
Scrupp Google business profile scraper
End-to-end workflow: tile-based Google map scraping bypasses the 20-result cap, pulls place ID + coordinates, then crawls each linked website to extract business emails and verify them via SMTP. Export business leads ready to call or email, in one file.
FAQ
GMB Scraper FAQ
How do I scrape Google Maps data for free?
Start free with the Scrupp Google Maps extractor — 100 listings per month at no cost, no credit card. Pick a city + category, hit Export, download a CSV with business name, phone numbers, website, place ID, coordinates and any publicly listed email. Upgrade only if you need higher volume.
Is scraping Google Maps legal?
Scraping public Google Maps data is generally legal for publicly listed information (business name, address, phone, website, coordinates, place ID). Google's Terms of Service restrict automated queries, so responsible scrapers use proxies and rate limits to stay under detection thresholds. Scrupp handles that layer for you.
How do I get more than 20 results per city?
Google Maps UI shows max 20 results per search. Scrupp bypasses this by splitting the target area into smaller geographic tiles (city quadrants or zip codes), running a search in each tile, then deduplicating by place ID. A "dentists in Chicago" query can return 500+ results this way.
Can I extract data from Google Maps including email addresses?
Google doesn't show business emails on the Google Business Profile listing itself. Scrupp's scraper crawls each business's linked website, extracts publicly listed contact emails, then verifies them via SMTP for 90%+ deliverability. Phone numbers come directly from the listing, so every row has at least one contact channel.
What fields are included in the business data export?
Business name, full street address, city, state, postal code, latitude/longitude coordinates, place ID, primary category, sub-categories, average rating, review count, phone numbers, website URL, claimed status, opening hours, and verified business emails (where available). All fields are clean and CRM-ready.
Scrupp vs Google Places API — which is cheaper?
Google Places API charges $17 per 1,000 requests after the $200/month free tier, and doesn't include any email enrichment. Scrupp's extractor runs on a credit-based model — each business listing costs 1 credit (~$0.01-0.03), email discovery adds another credit. For a typical 500-business leads list, Scrupp is 3-5× cheaper than Places API.
Can I filter by review count or rating?
Yes — filter on average rating (e.g. 4.0+), minimum review count, or business verification status. Useful for targeting only established local businesses with high social proof.
What's the best use case for a Google My Business scraper?
Local B2B outbound: agencies selling services to small businesses (SEO, web design, payroll, insurance, ads) use GMB scrapers for data collection by city and category, then reach out with email or phone. Also popular for competitive mapping and city-level market research.
