How Does it Work?
- BrowserAct constructs the public BBB search from
KeywordandLocation. - The Bot reads the ordered public result list and collects each business name, rank, and BBB profile URL.
- It opens each public business profile and waits for BBB's automatic security interstitial to clear when it appears.
- The Bot combines profile JSON-LD with visible BBB rating, accreditation, category, website, phone, date, and address fields.
- It continues through pagination until
Countis reached, then returns structured records with search and evidence URLs.
How to Build a New Scraper Bot with Agent Built
Step 1: Describe the Data You Need
Open BrowserAct and start Agent Built from the Home prompt box or from Create -> Build with Agent. Describe the public source, reusable inputs, records to collect, fields to return, and result limit.

Step 2: Let BrowserAct Build and Test the Bot
BrowserAct explores the live website, determines the navigation and extraction path, and validates the result. Reply in the same build conversation when a public URL, field rule, or expected output needs clarification.

Step 3: Run the Bot and Review the Result
Run the completed Bot with default inputs. Check result order, optional missing values, source URLs, and the requested row count before reusing the Bot.

How Many Results Can You Scrape?
Use Count to control the maximum businesses returned. Each business may require a public BBB profile visit, so larger counts take longer than listing-only templates. Start with the default value and increase gradually.

FAQ About BBB Lead Scraper
Does this Bot require login?
No. It uses public BBB search listings and public business profiles.
Does every BBB profile contain an email address?
No. The Bot only returns a complete email address when it is publicly visible. It does not open gated contact controls or submit forms.
Why are some optional fields empty?
BBB profiles vary in completeness. Missing phone numbers, addresses, dates, websites, or accreditation fields are returned as null instead of being inferred.
Can the Bot collect more than one result page?
Yes. It follows BBB pagination until Count is reached or no more matching results are available.
