## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## 🎯 PullLeads - Multi-Source Lead Extractor

Extract local business leads from **Google Maps, Yelp, Yellow Pages, and BBB** with automatic email enrichment. Find owner/decision-maker emails, not generic info@ addresses.

### What it does

1. **Scrapes businesses** from multiple directories (Google Maps, Yelp, Yellow Pages, BBB)
2. **Finds owner emails** using Hunter.io, Apollo.io, and Snov.io
3. **Verifies emails** with NeverBounce (optional)
4. **Exports clean data** ready for your CRM or cold email tool

### Perfect for

- 🏠 **Home services** (plumbers, HVAC, electricians, roofers)
- 🦷 **Healthcare** (dentists, chiropractors, clinics)
- 🏢 **Professional services** (lawyers, accountants, real estate)
- 🍽️ **Restaurants & hospitality**
- 🔧 **Auto repair shops**

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `query` | string | Type of business (e.g., "plumbers", "dentists") |
| `location` | string | City/area to search (e.g., "Miami, Florida") |
| `limit` | number | Max businesses to extract (default: 50) |
| `source` | string | Data source: `google_maps`, `yelp`, `yellow_pages`, `bbb`, `all_usa` |
| `enrichMode` | string | Email search aggressiveness |
| `skipEnrichment` | boolean | Skip email finding (faster) |
| `skipVerification` | boolean | Skip email verification |

#### API Keys (Optional)

For email enrichment, provide your own API keys:
- `hunterApiKey` - Hunter.io API key
- `apolloApiKey` - Apollo.io API key  
- `snovApiKey` - Snov.io API key
- `neverbounceApiKey` - NeverBounce API key (for verification)

### Output

Each lead includes:

```json
{
  "name": "Joe's Plumbing",
  "address": "123 Main St, Miami, FL 33101",
  "phone": "(305) 555-1234",
  "website": "https://joesplumbing.com",
  "category": "Plumber",
  "rating": "4.8",
  "reviews_count": "156",
  "email": "joe@joesplumbing.com",
  "email_source": "hunter",
  "email_verified": true,
  "facebook": "https://facebook.com/joesplumbing",
  "instagram": "https://instagram.com/joesplumbing",
  "source": "google_maps"
}
````

### Data Sources

| Source | Coverage | Best for |
|--------|----------|----------|
| Google Maps | Global | General local businesses |
| Yelp | USA | Restaurants, services with reviews |
| Yellow Pages | USA | Traditional business directory |
| BBB | USA/Canada | Verified/accredited businesses |

### Email Enrichment

The Actor rotates between 3 email finding services to maximize results:

- **Hunter.io** - Best for domain-based search
- **Apollo.io** - Great for company name search
- **Snov.io** - Good fallback option

#### Enrichment Modes

- `website-only` - Only search if business has a website
- `name-search` - Search by company name if no website (default)
- `aggressive` - Try all available methods

### Tips for Best Results

1. **Start small** - Test with `limit: 10` first
2. **Be specific** - "plumbers" works better than "home services"
3. **Use location format** - "Miami, Florida" or "Miami, FL"
4. **Combine sources** - Use `all_usa` for comprehensive results

### Pricing

This Actor uses Apify's standard compute pricing. Email enrichment APIs have their own free tiers:

- Hunter: 25 searches/month free
- Apollo: 75 credits/month free
- Snov: 50 credits/month free
