Google Maps lead tools compared
Leadraft vs Outscraper: which one gets you leads you can send to?
Both pull businesses from Google Maps. Outscraper is a broad pay-as-you-go data platform with an add-on for everything. Leadraft is built for one job: every business in your area, with emails checked before you pay.
Sources reviewed November 3, 2026
The short version
Outscraper sells data by the task: places, then emails and contacts, then verification, each priced per 1,000. Leadraft sells one unit, a business in your area and trade, with checked emails included in the plan.
Outscraper also sells reviews, photos and 20-plus other scrapers. If what you need is a sendable list for a place, compare the cost of a verified lead, not the cost of a row: that's the number Leadraft is built to keep low.

What to check in Leadraft
Run a free search on your own market. Look at the in-area count, the share with a Verified email, and what was charged. Outside and wrong-trade results appear in the list but cost nothing.
Outscraper
Outscraper in this comparison
Outscraper's prices are clear per task, and its credits don't expire. The total depends on how many tasks you chain: a verified email needs a place, an enrichment and a verification.
Use the same city and keyword in both. Divide what you paid by the number of addresses that passed verification. That number, not price per row, is what reaches your inbox.

Workflow fit
What Leadraft is built for, and what it isn't
Leadraft is built for one job: a sendable list of every business of a trade in an area you choose, with emails found on each business's own website and checked against the mail server, charged once per business. It doesn't pull review text or photos, and it isn't a general scraping platform; that's a different job. If your goal is a local business list you can email this week, that is exactly what Leadraft does, with checked emails included in the plan.
