You're not already comfortable running Python scripts + proxies. Hosted options (Outscraper/Serper) are faster to stand up.
Pull businesses without websites from Google Maps + enrich emails/phones in one API call.

You don't need enriched contact data — use Serper alone if you just want names + addresses.
why it matters · google-maps-lead-generator (kaymen99)
Open-source Python pipeline that scrapes Google Maps for local businesses, then runs AI + web scraping to find emails, phones, and contact pages. Same job as Outscraper or Serper+enrichment, but you host it yourself for zero per-lead cost. Small project (28 stars, last updated mid-2025), so expect to patch things. Worth it if you're running LPA lead-gen at scale and don't want a recurring API bill eating margin.
why it matters · Outscraper
Outscraper is a hosted Google Maps + business-data API. The differentiator: server-side filter for 'website:false' which instantly hands you a clean list of local businesses missing a website — the exact lead-gen segment for an AI landing-page agency. Plus email + phone enrichment baked in. Alternative to Serper (cheaper per lead but no enrichment) and Apify (similar filter, 2.5x more expensive). Worth a 30-min trial run on one vertical + one city before committing.
