How to Build a Local Business Directory in 6 Simple Steps with Outscraper
See how I used ChatGPT Work and an Outscraper JSON export to turn 500 business records into a searchable local directory with 467 qualifying Chicago dental listings.
Outscraper is providing fast and reliable data on Google Maps locations, in a simple and intuitive interface. The platform has advanced features, yet is user friendly enough. In the last 12 months, we used Outscraper to extract relevant public data regarding 120,000+ locations.
This service has been extremely helpful for me. Apart from their super fast API for various services, their amazing support is something that would make you go back to them. Dana from Outscraper team had helped me tirelessly for 3 days when I got into an issue and the dev team even made a spot update in their SDK package to suit my requirements. Highly recommended!

I wish I had found it sooner. I've been manually collecting data from Google Maps for the past 15 months!
The first search produced more usable data in 20 minutes than my 15 months did altogether.
