How Does it Work?
BrowserAct searches Google Maps using the combined Search Query and Location, then collects public place URLs from the results feed.
The Bot opens each place detail page, reads the requested visible business and lead fields, and continues until Count is reached. The successful default run returned ten business records with all requested fields.
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. Paste a clear request that includes the website, the records to collect, the filters or search conditions, the fields to return, the result limit, and the inputs you want to reuse later.
Step 2: Let BrowserAct Build and Test the Bot
BrowserAct explores the live website, works out the navigation and extraction path, and validates the result. If BrowserAct asks for clarification, reply in the same build conversation with the missing URL, condition, field, example, or expected output.
Step 3: Run the Bot and Review the Result
When the build is complete, run the Bot with the default inputs first. Review the structured records, source URLs, missing fields, and row count before reusing the Bot with new inputs or connecting it to another workflow.
Why Use Google Maps Local Lead Finder?
Create reusable public local-business datasets for prospecting, territory research, directory building, and market analysis.
Who Can Use This Template?
- Local sales and lead generation teams.
- Market and territory researchers.
- Agencies building business lists.
- Automation builders enriching CRM records.
How Many Results Can You Scrape?
Count controls the maximum businesses. Detail-page extraction takes longer than listing-only collection because the Bot opens each public place page.
Automation and Export
BrowserAct returns structured data first. You can then use the completed output through API JSON responses, n8n workflows, Make scenarios, Zapier automations, MCP-based agent workflows, or manual CSV and spreadsheet review.
