Frequently Asked Questions

Freshness refers to when listings were last scraped from US YellowPages. 30-Day Fresh means all records were captured within the last 30 days. 7-Day Fresh means within the last 7 days. Every delivery includes a job manifest with sample URLs and timestamps you can independently verify.

Yes. You can scope your dataset by any combination of state, city, and business category. Use our instant configurator to define your scope and see the price immediately, or contact sales for complex multi-scope requests.

We deliver in CSV, XLSX, JSON, NDJSON, Parquet, and SQLite/MySQL. You can request multiple formats in the same order at no extra charge. You can also order with a specific format and it will be delivered to you

Most standard orders are delivered within 06-24 hours via secure email link. Large custom scopes (5M+ listings or complex filtering) may take 24 hours to be prepared and sent. Rush delivery is available on request.

After payment, you'll receive an order confirmation email. We prepare your dataset within the delivery window and send a secure, password-protected download link to your email. The link includes your files in your chosen format(s) along with a job manifest documenting the scrape.

Unlike generic data marketplaces, our datasets are freshly scraped to order with verifiable timestamps. We provide complete fields, phone/address/domain normalization, deduplication, and flexible delivery formats. You also get a job manifest and sample URLs — not just a static, stale CSV with unknown provenance.

For light usage, not always. For serious scale, yes — reliable proxy infrastructure is what keeps scraping fast, stable, and less likely to get blocked as request volume rises. Websites commonly use rate limits, bot scoring, and challenge actions to control automated traffic.

In the extension, we keep request pacing conservative. For larger dataset runs, we add proxy rotation, retry logic, CAPTCHA handling, and distributed infrastructure to keep extraction stable at scale. Rate limiting, bot scoring, and challenge actions are standard anti-abuse controls on the web.

Because email capture is a deeper enrichment step. Core business fields often appear directly on YellowPages search results, while email data is less consistently exposed and usually requires extra page visits, extra parsing, and more validation before it can be added to the dataset. YellowPages search results visibly expose fields like phone, address, website, hours, ratings, and years in business, while richer profile data varies by listing.

Usually because the session was rate-limited, challenged, or temporarily blocked. Our scraper uses defensive pacing and recovery logic to reduce interruptions, and if you hit an issue, our team will help you get it back on track. Sites commonly use rate limits and challenge actions to slow or stop automated traffic.

We optimize for stability over reckless speed. In the extension, a realistic pace is about 1 listing every 1–2 seconds for reliable runs; pushing much harder increases the chance of throttling, blocking, and incomplete scrapes. That tradeoff is consistent with how rate-limiting systems are designed to react to high request volume.

If you need ongoing control and want to scrape on your own schedule, get the extension. If you need a large batch of data quickly without doing the work yourself, buy a dataset. Many teams use both — the extension for day-to-day prospecting and datasets for large bulk orders.

Credits measure your monthly capture volume. Quick scrapes cost 1 credit per record. Deep scrapes cost 3 credits per record. Your monthly pool is shared across both modes and resets at the start of each billing cycle. The Free plan includes 300 credits/month.

Quick extracts from search result cards — faster, lighter, 1 credit/record. Deep visits each listing page for full data including email, hours, and specialties — 3 credits/record. Choose based on whether you need speed or completeness.

Yes. The extension operates only on pages you actively browse. There is no background scraping, no cloud uploads, and no automated crawling. All data is stored locally in your browser profile. It's designed for professional, user-initiated data collection.
