Apify alternative: Leadity scrapes live, checks every number against its carrier record, and bills only the leads that pass.

Apify's Google Maps Scraper is an actor you configure and run on Apify's platform: it returns place data, with contact enrichment, people enrichment and email verification as paid add-ons. Leadity scrapes live for one niche and area, checks every number against its carrier record, and bills only the leads that pass, from $0.0032 a record.

When Apify is the better choice. An honest take - a balanced comparison helps you choose right.

Apify is the better choice if you are building your own data pipeline: a marketplace of actors, an API, many output formats and full control over a raw extraction, at a per-place price that falls on the bigger plans.

When Leadity wins.

If your job is to call or text the owner - cold-calling, SMMA, selling AI or SaaS to local businesses - you want a number that is a mobile by its carrier record, scraped live, with a no-website filter, the owner's name when you ask for it, and a per-lead price that never charges you for a row you would have thrown away.

What is actually different.

The filters run INSIDE the scrape. Every number is checked against the carrier's own thousand-block record as it is found, and a lead that fails the line type you ordered is never delivered and never charged - so you pay for the list you asked for rather than for rows you then have to clean. Apify is a capable tool with a different shape: you take the rows, and anything beyond the listing is priced on top as you use it.

Leadity's filters, as the order page shows them: each is chosen before the scrape runs and priced per lead.
