What SphereScout does
Search and preview local businesses
Filter businesses by category, country, region and city, and see how many match before you spend anything. The preview is free, so you know the size of your market before you buy.
Ready-made business directories
Buy a complete category file for a country, such as every plumber in France, as a CSV with emails, phones and websites. Files come from the same monthly-refreshed database as the search.
API and agent skill
Give Claude, ChatGPT or any agent with API access the open-source SphereScout skill. Your agent searches the database, shows the matching count and exports the contacts you approve.

What makes SphereScout different
Continuously refreshed, not a one-off scrape
Tools like Scrap.io pull a snapshot of Google Maps when you run a search. SphereScout re-collects and quality-checks its whole database every month, so contacts do not go stale between exports.
SphereScout vs Scrap.ioNo scraping infrastructure to manage
With Apify or Outscraper you configure scrapers, pay per run, handle failures and clean, deduplicate and maintain the output yourself. SphereScout gives you the cleaned, deduplicated result directly.
Built for AI agents
An official, open-source skill lets AI agents search and export SphereScout data directly, without custom integration work.
Free preview before you buy
You see how many businesses match your filters before any credits are spent, and you only pay for the contacts you export.
