Built a free AI lead scraper API — extract emails, phones & social links from any website

Following up on my browser proxy tool from last week — I built a second API: AI Lead Scraper.

Send it a company URL or name, get back emails, phone numbers, and social media links — automatically crawls contact/about pages too.

Free tier available, no credit card needed.

Try it: https://rapidapi.com/kmyles268/api/ai-lead-scraper
Live demo: https://ai-lead-scraper-1.onrender.com/test

Built with Playwright + Chromium. Happy to take feature requests.

Built a free AI lead scraper API — extract emails, phones & social links from any website

I built this after running into Claude's broken web fetching last week — it kept returning stale cached pages and failing on JS-heavy sites. That led me down a rabbit hole of building browser automation tools, and this lead scraper was the natural next step: most lead-gen tools (Hunter.io, Apollo) charge $50-500/mo, so I wanted to see if a lightweight version was possible using just Playwright + Chromium.Free tier available, no credit card needed.
