Software and technical B2B
Categories where the founder's account is the company's most active public channel and links straight to the product site.
X (Twitter) email scraper
For software, media, crypto and B2B services, an X account is often the most current public record a company keeps — and the account name is usually the company name, which is exactly what the website lookup needs.
How it works
Accounts are found with a site-restricted search against twitter.com for your keyword and, optionally, a city. Search, hashtag, home and explore URLs are filtered out so results are accounts.
Nothing logs in, and no X API tier is required — a relevant detail given what that access now costs.
The profile carries no email address, and its bio link is not read — that would mean fetching the profile page itself, which none of these platforms serve without a login. What the profile does give you is a business name and a place, and that is enough: GoLeadX looks the business up by name and city to find its own website. That site is then crawled for contact details. GoLeadX fetches the site's homepage and up to two contact-ish pages — contact, about, impressum, kontakt, imprint, team, support — and pulls every address, phone number and social link it finds, preferring an address on the business's own domain over a free mailbox. Every address is then checked for syntax, for a valid MX record on its domain, and — where SMTP verification is enabled — with a real probe against the receiving server. Results come back labelled valid, risky or invalid, and disposable domains are dropped.
What you get back
| Field | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| Account name | The display name from the profile title. |
| X handle | Stored as a social field on the lead. |
| Profile URL | The public account page. |
| Email + status | From the business's own website, found by name lookup, then verified. |
| Website | The site the name lookup matched, where it found one. |
What it is good for
Media, newsletters and publishers
Publications maintain an account and a site, and the site carries an editorial contact address.
Reaching companies with no local presence
Remote-first businesses have no map listing at all, and an X account is often the easiest way to find them.
What it cannot do
- X's public search visibility has narrowed considerably. This source returns fewer results than it did, and fewer than LinkedIn does for the same query.
- Location matching is weak — X profiles carry a free-text location field that a site-restricted search barely reflects. Expect city filtering to work poorly here.
- Follower counts, tweets and engagement data are not part of this source.
Questions
01 Does this need an X API key?
No. It reads public profile pages found through a site-restricted search, so none of X's paid API tiers are involved.
02 Why do I get fewer results than on other platforms?
X exposes much less to search engines than it used to. The mechanism is unchanged; the index it queries is simply smaller.
03 Should I use twitter.com or x.com?
It queries twitter.com, which is still where the indexed URLs live. You do not need to do anything differently.
Other sources
Every plan includes all eleven. Running two on the same niche costs only the credits — results deduplicate, so the overlap is not charged twice.
Google Maps scraper
Google Maps lists millions of businesses and shows an address, a phone number and a website — but never an email. This closes that gap: the listings come from the Places API, the emails come from the sites those listings point at.
Website email extractor
The source that catches everything the platforms miss: businesses that never claimed a map listing, never made a profile, and exist as a website and nothing else.
LinkedIn email finder
LinkedIn profiles are the best public index of who does what, and the worst place to find a working email. This uses the first fact and works around the second.
Instagram email scraper
A large share of small businesses are easier to find on Instagram than anywhere else. Instagram gives you the name and the city; the name and the city are enough to find the site that carries the address.
Try it on a niche you know
The fastest way to judge any source is to run it against a market you already understand and check the rows against what you know. That takes about a minute.
