Scraping Google Maps is the fastest way to build a list of local businesses for cold outreach. Whether you sell B2B software, run an agency or do field sales, the businesses you want already have a Google Maps listing — you just need a reliable way to pull thousands of them at once, with phone numbers, websites and (when available) email addresses already attached. This guide walks through how to do it on Kavex in under 60 seconds, plus the tradeoffs vs DIY scraping and other tools like Outscraper or Apify.

LinkedIn is the single richest source of B2B lead data on the open web — and the hardest to scrape because they aggressively block bots. On Kavex you scrape with your own LinkedIn session cookie, which means our requests look identical to your normal browsing. We never see your password, the cookie is encrypted at rest, and you can remove it anytime. This guide covers the safe way to do it: which fields you can pull, how the cookie flow works, and how Kavex compares to Phantombuster and direct-DIY approaches.

You have a list of company domains and you need email addresses to reach the right people. There are three reliable approaches: crawl each company's contact page, guess the email pattern (firstname.lastname@) and verify it, or scrape LinkedIn for the right people first and then build the email pattern. Each has different cost and accuracy tradeoffs. This guide walks through all three using Kavex's tools, with realistic accuracy numbers.

Trustpilot reviews are a gold mine for two B2B use cases: finding unhappy customers of your competitors (win-back leads) and mining product complaints to use as marketing angles. Trustpilot's public API is closed unless you're a paying customer, but every review on a business's public page is scrapeable. Kavex's Trustpilot Reviews scraper accepts review URLs or bare domains and returns rating, review text, author and date for each review.

YouTube's public API is generous but quota-limited and increasingly restrictive about what data points you can pull (no transcripts at scale, no historical view counts). For agencies tracking creators, brands monitoring competitors, or research teams building training datasets, the API caps out fast. Kavex's YouTube scraper works against public HTML pages — no API key, no quota. Per video: 2 credits. Per channel: 5 credits including the most recent 10 videos.

Outbound is back. After three years of "inbound only" preaching, the SaaS playbook in 2026 is: tight ICP definition, multi-source list building, AI-personalised first touch, fast follow-up. The cost of outbound dropped 90% with tools that combine LinkedIn + Google Maps + email enrichment in one flow. This guide is the operator-level playbook used by SaaS founders shipping their first 100 customers.
