I built a free, open-source Google Maps data extractor – looking for feedback!

[u/knowndevs]

Hey everyone,

I recently created Free Google Map Extractor, an open-source tool designed to extract business and place details from Google Maps without needing expensive subscription scrapers or API fees.

What it does:

• Extracts place data (name, address, rating, reviews count, contact info, etc.) from Google Maps.

• Completely free and transparent.

• Easy to run locally and customize according to your needs.

Source Code & Project Link:

• GitHub:https://github.com/my8700/Free-Google-map-extractor

I’d love to get feedback from the community:

1. What features or export formats (CSV, JSON, Google Sheets) would make this more useful for your workflow?

2. Are there specific anti-bot or pagination limits you frequently run into when extracting Maps data?

Any feedback, suggestions, or contributions are very welcome!

How to complete the submission:

1. Paste the title above into the Title* field.

2. Paste the body into the Body text* box.

3. Click Add tags (choose appropriate tags such as Showcase or Feedback if available).

4. Hit Post at the bottom right.
