📁 Brazil Business Directory Scraper

Extract Brazil business data with BrazilYello

BrazilYello (brazilyello.com) lists local businesses across Brazil. Use this Actor as a practical Brazil business directory API alternative: configure filters in the Input tab and download JSON, CSV, or Excel.

BrazilYello is built for Portuguese-language category and keyword discovery across Brazil’s largest metros—pair city filters with local search terms for better precision.
