An Apify Google Maps Scraper alternative, emails included

By Doug Nielsen, Product Manager · Updated · first published

Competitor facts checked: September 2026. Each figure links the page it came from.

Apify is a developer platform, and its Google Maps Scraper (compass/crawler-google-places) is a popular actor, with 617,362 users and a 4.7 rating from 1,817 reviews (checked September 2026). It charges per event — a price per place that depends on your Apify plan, plus add-ons for emails, reviews and filters. Hubertino charges one price per business with emails and socials already in it, and there's no actor to choose or add-on to turn on for them (optional paid add-ons, an SEO audit and decision makers, are there on Starter and Pro).

Pick Hubertino if you…

  • • want emails without an add-on: 1 credit covers the business, its website emails and its socials
  • • want one price that doesn't depend on a plan tier: $0.276–$0.58 per 1,000 against $2.48–$5.87 on Apify with emails
  • • don't want to pick an actor or configure its input before you get a list
  • • want 100 free credits with emails included to test a real niche

Choose Apify if you…

  • • need a small list every month for free: the Free plan's $5 covers about 1,250 places without add-ons, or about 852 with emails
  • • are a developer who wants to build, schedule and chain your own actors
  • • need scrapers for sites other than Google Maps
  • • want add-ons Hubertino doesn't have, such as filters applied while scraping, so the dataset holds only matching places ($1 per 1,000 places per filter)

Notes and sources

The month's bill for that many businesses, each with a website email and social lookup. Prices checked September 2026.

  1. 1. Hubertino. 1 credit per business, website emails and social profiles included. Starter is $19 a month for 50,000 credits and Pro $69 for 250,000; plan credits roll over 6 months. Past a plan's credits we add 50,000-credit packs ($29, never expire) or move to Pro, whichever is cheaper. The packs row is the no-subscription option: that pack priced per business used ($0.58 per 1,000), so the first purchase is at least $29. Prices exclude VAT. Pricing.
  2. 2. Apify. Its Google Maps Scraper (compass/crawler-google-places) charges per event: $4 / $3 / $2 / $1.50 per 1,000 places on the Free, Starter ($19), Scale ($199), Business ($999) plans, plus $2 / $2 / $1.50 / $1.05 per 1,000 for the company-contacts (email) add-on (apify.com/compass/…, checked Sep 2026), charged on places with a website per a March 2025 help article (help.apify.com/en/…, checked Sep 2026) — 93.4% in our runs. The plan fee is prepaid usage, so the bill is whichever is higher; we pick the cheapest plan. No filters, reviews or other add-ons.
  3. All. The same volume every month, every business with the email lookup, plan credits fully used. Cost per 1,000 businesses compares like for like; cost per 1,000 emails doesn't, because the others don't publish how often they find one.

Cost per 1,000 businesses, by Apify plan

Apify's per-place price and its email add-on both depend on the plan, and the plan fee is prepaid usage. So the like-for-like figure is places plus the contacts add-on on the 93% of places that have a website (our measured rate), per 1,000.

What using Hubertino looks like

Here's how Hubertino's Google Maps scraper works:

  1. 1. Describe the hunt. Type a business category (“dentist”, “roofing contractor”, anything) and pick locations — whole countries, states, cities or zip codes from the built-in picker.
  2. 2. Watch it fill. Results stream into a live table as they're found: phone, website, then the email and socials dug from each business's site.
  3. 3. Export and go. Download XLSX/CSV — one business per row — or pull it via the API. You're only charged for what was actually delivered.

Questions

What's the difference between Hubertino and Apify?

Apify is a general web-scraping platform where Google Maps is one of thousands of 'actors' you run. Its Google Maps Scraper charges per event — $4 → $1.50 per 1,000 places depending on your Apify plan, with emails as a separate contacts add-on (checked September 2026). Hubertino does one thing — Google Maps lead lists with emails — for a flat 1-credit-per-business price, emails included, with nothing to configure.

Do I need to pick an actor or add-ons?

No. You type a category and locations and export a spreadsheet (or use the REST API). There's no actor to choose and nothing to configure; emails and socials are in the 1-credit price. Optional paid add-ons, an SEO audit and decision makers, are there on Starter and Pro if you want them.

Is Hubertino cheaper than Apify for Google Maps?

For most lead-list volumes, yes. For 10,000 businesses a month with emails, Apify's Google Maps Scraper comes to about $48.67 on its Starter plan (places plus the contacts add-on on the 93% that have a website; checked September 2026), against $19 on Hubertino's Starter plan. Apify wins in two places: its free plan covers small monthly pulls for nothing, and for custom scraping across many sites its platform is the better fit. Its per-place price does fall to $1.50 per 1,000, but only on the $999-a-month Business plan.

Does Hubertino have an API?

Yes — a REST API with an OpenAPI spec (create a scrape, poll status, fetch results, export files; Bearer-key auth), on every plan, plus free n8n templates that send leads to Google Sheets or HubSpot.
