Lead Scout — Local business lead generation software

The problem

Finding leads shouldn't eat your week.

Every way of building a lead list by the usual routes costs you something — time, accuracy, or a bill that never stops.

Copying by hand

Search the map, open every website, paste into a spreadsheet. Hours of work for a few dozen rows.

Bought lists go stale

Businesses close, move and change numbers. A list put together months ago is full of dead ends.

Subscriptions never stop

Most lead tools bill you every month, whether you searched that month or not.

Scraper bots break

They get blocked, need proxies, and stop working without warning.

What you get

More than a name and address.

Every search gives you each business's listing — name, phone, address, star rating and number of reviews. Then Lead Scout visits every business's own website and reads it, so you get a list you can act on, not a raw dump you still have to research.

Website platform — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow, something else, or no website at all
WhatsApp — see who links to WhatsApp from their own site, and who doesn't
Email addresses — found on the business's own website
Open or closed — business's status, so you don't call one that has shut down
One-click export — clean CSV or Excel, ready for outreach or your CRM

One lead, as it arrives

Plus address, city, category, the search term that found it, and when it was last updated. Some details can be blank when a business doesn't publish them.

Built for people who sell to local businesses

See who needs what you sell — before you reach out.

The details Lead Scout collects are the same signals you'd look for by hand. Sort the table in the app, or filter your export in Excel, and your pitch list writes itself.

How it works

Pick a city and a business type

Start typing a city, choose a preset or your own search terms, and check the area on the map.

Lead Scout finds and checks them

It finds the matches and visits each website. Retry blocked sites in a real browser.

Review, edit, export

Fix any contact detail in the table, then download a CSV or Excel file and start reaching out.

Why it's different

Fresh data, kept on your own computer.

Fresh the moment you search

Listings are looked up live when you search, not taken from an old list. Search a city again after 30 days and it's checked again.

No scraping bots or proxies

Lead Scout looks businesses up through a data API with your own key — no proxies or rotating IPs to manage, and nothing to keep patched when a scraper would break.

Your leads stay with you

Every search is saved in a database on your own PC, not uploaded to anyone else's cloud. Export it whenever you like.

One payment. No subscription. Yours to keep.

Pay once. Search any city and any trade, for as long as you use it.

What it costs to run

Lead Scout searches with your own API key, so there's no per-lead fee to us — and a free monthly allowance to search with.

About 1,000 search requests free every month: That's roughly 5,000–10,000 leads — enough for dozens of city searches. It starts again at the beginning of each month.
A built-in monthly limit: Lead Scout counts every request and stops searching at your limit — 1,000 by default — so a busy month doesn't turn into a surprise bill.
A card for the key's billing setup: Creating the API key asks for a payment card, even if you stay within the free allowance. The setup guide walks you through it in about 10 minutes.

Who makes it

Built by Turn Me Digital

Lead Scout is made by Turn Me Digital, a web development and digital marketing agency that builds and markets websites for local businesses — the same businesses Lead Scout finds.

Questions

Do I need to pay for anything else?

Nothing more to Lead Scout. Searches run on your own Places API key from Google Cloud, which comes with a free monthly allowance of about 1,000 search requests. Google asks for a payment card when you set the key up, even if you stay within the free allowance, and Lead Scout's built-in monthly limit stops searching before you'd go past it.

How far does the free allowance go?

Each page of results for each search term is one request, and brings back up to 20 businesses. The built-in presets have 2 search terms each, so a search usually uses 2 to 6 requests; very large cities use more, because they're split into smaller areas. The same business can turn up under more than one term, so the free allowance works out to roughly 5,000–10,000 leads a month. Opening a city you've already searched uses none.

Where does the data come from?

Business listings — name, address, phone, rating and reviews — come from Google's places data, which covers more than 200 million places worldwide, looked up with your own key. Email, WhatsApp and website platform come from each business's own website.

What does it run on?

Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit). There isn't a Mac version. You'll also need an internet connection to search and to activate your license.

How long does setup take?

Installing takes a couple of minutes. Creating your API key takes about 10 more, and the included guide walks through every step.

What if a business's website can't be checked?

You still get the listing details. If a site blocks the automated visit or doesn't respond, you can try it again with a real browser engine, which gets past many sites that turn away ordinary visits. Blocks are often temporary, so you can retry again later too.

Can I use it on more than one computer?

A license works on one computer at a time. Moving to a new PC? Unlink it from the old one inside the app, then enter the same key on the new one.

Is this a subscription?

No. You pay once and it's yours.

How do I get help?

Turn any city into a ready-to-pitch lead list.
