The Yelp scraper for local business leads
Pull business listings from Yelp by category and city.
Kavex's Yelp scraper turns any category-and-city search into a clean spreadsheet of local businesses. Yelp is one of the densest directories of service businesses in the US, restaurants, contractors, salons, clinics, and almost every listing carries a phone number, a rating and a review count. You give a search term and a location, and Kavex returns every matching business with its rating, review volume, price range, categories, address and coordinates. It is built for agencies and sales teams that prospect local markets and want Yelp's coverage alongside Google Maps, without copying cards by hand.
A RUN OF 1,000 BUSINESSES ON THIS SOURCE, AT 2 PER BUSINESS
Say what you want. Read the price first.
Everything else is a ceiling or a filter. The estimate moves with the numbers you type, so the run never surprises you at the end.
Provide one or more search terms (for example plumbers or coffee shops) and a city or region. Kavex pulls every matching Yelp business through the official Yelp data API and returns its name, rating, review count, price range, category tags, phone number, full address and map coordinates. Results stream into your task as the scrape runs.
Pick your search terms and location on the configure page, set how many results per search you want, and run. Kavex paginates Yelp for you. Add the Phone Validator add-on to format and classify the numbers before you export.
Charged per delivered row. If the source holds fewer than you asked for, the rest of the credits go back to your balance the second the run ends.
One thousand businesses, itemised.
The base run, then every add-on as its own line. Nothing is bundled, so you can read the bill from top to bottom.

What people point it at.
Four ways this source is used today. Every one of them is the same run, the same export and the same credit pool.
- Local lead lists for agencies selling into one category in one city
- Market mapping, how many competitors a category has per metro
- Enriching a Google Maps pull with Yelp ratings and review volume
- Building outbound call lists for service businesses
The rest of the local & maps stack.
Same credit pool, same export. Chain the output of one run into the next without paying for the list twice.
Asked before the first run.
Short answers, no accordion to click through. If something is still missing, the help pages go deeper.
Can I scrape Yelp for a whole city?
Yes, give a broad category and a city, and raise the results-per-search limit. Kavex paginates through the Yelp results for you, up to 1000 per search.
Does it return phone numbers?
Yes, almost every Yelp business listing carries a phone number, and it comes back in the phone column ready for outreach.
How fresh is the data?
Every scrape is live, you get each listing exactly as it appears on Yelp at run time, not a cached database.
Can I combine it with Google Maps results?
Yes. Many users run the same category through both the Yelp and Google Maps scrapers and merge the lists for wider coverage.
