A Google Maps scraper alternative that tells you who is worth calling
Scrapers are good at what they do and cheap per record. What none of them tell you is which of those 2,000 businesses has a slow site, no booking link and a competitor beating them in the results. Tellsign audits every one and ranks them.
Outscraper, D7 Lead Finder, Lead Scrape and the Google Maps actors on Apify all do the same core job: run a search, extract the businesses, hand you a CSV. The data is genuinely good, with names, addresses, phones, websites, ratings and review counts, and some add technology detection or social profiles. They are extraction tools rather than sales tools, priced per record and built to feed whatever comes next.
You want a shortlist you can act on today, with the reason to call and the email already written.
You need raw volume, unusual fields or a feed into your own system, at the lowest possible price per record.
Tellsign vs Google Maps scrapers, feature by feature
11 rows, and 4 of them go to Google Maps scrapers. A comparison that wins everywhere is an advert, not a comparison.
500 to 15,000 audited leads a month depending on plan, with unlimited searches.
Effectively unlimited. Outscraper charges about $3 per 1,000 records, falling to $1 per 1,000 past 100,000.

Fractions of a cent at volume. Nothing audited, nothing written.
Name, category, address, phone, website, rating, reviews, socials, plus everything the audit adds.

Every lead: mobile and desktop PageSpeed, Core Web Vitals, HTTPS, mobile readiness, contact and booking paths, titles, headings and structured data, ad tags, vulnerable libraries, privacy and cookies.
None. A scraper reports what a listing says, not how the website behaves.
