Public data from Facebook, LinkedIn, Google, YouTube and Amazon, without an account

Twelve tools that turn public Facebook, LinkedIn, Google Maps, Google search, YouTube and Amazon pages into clean JSON or CSV. No login, no extension. You pay per record, and only for records you actually get.

Facebook

Five tools for public Facebook data, one API for all of them. Prices, start fees and fields next to the official Apify scrapers: the comparison.

LinkedIn

Google, YouTube and Amazon

Final price

Each card leads with the Business (Gold tier and higher) base-result price and shows the Free-plan price beside it; Starter and Scale rates fall between. Platform usage and default proxy routing are included, with no start fee or per-run minimum. Optional organizer emails, reviews, transcripts and product details have separate prices on each Actor's Pricing tab. If you choose a custom proxy, its provider may bill you separately.

Why these and not the others

They read only what each site shows a visitor who is not signed in. No account is involved, so there is nothing of yours to get restricted and nothing to copy out of your own session. For Facebook that also keeps the data on the right side of Meta v. Bright Data, where a US court held that Meta's terms do not bar scraping public data while logged out.

Where an established Apify scraper exists for the same source, output field names follow it, so switching means changing an Actor ID and nothing else. Each one runs on the Apify platform, which handles scheduling, storage, the API, webhooks and integrations with Make, Zapier, n8n and Google Sheets.

Using the data responsibly

These tools collect public information, but public does not mean unregulated. A named person's email is personal data under the GDPR, and the fact that a business published it does not give you a licence to send unsolicited bulk mail. Keep a lawful basis for what you collect, honour opt-outs, and read the local anti-spam rules before you send anything.
