GMPlus Alternative: Google Maps Leads With Owner Contacts

By Shivaraj, Founder, loclay · Checked against each company's own site

The short version

GMPlus is a free Google Maps extractor and Chrome extension: 500 credits a day, 27 fields, and website emails at 5 credits per record. loclay is a paid web app that searches many cities at once and adds the decision maker when the business's site names them, with the source of every contact.

We make loclay, so we've stuck to what each company publishes, and listed where GMPlus is the better choice.

What GMPlus is best at

GMPlus is a free, no-code way to pull Google Maps data:

  • 500 free credits every day, no API keys or code
  • A Chrome extension that works on Google Maps directly
  • 27 fields including place IDs, coordinates, photos and social links

What 5,000 leads cost

One month, 5,000 leads with emails, at each company's published prices:

loclay
$29 (Starter, 5,000 leads)
GMPlus
Free, about 100 records with email a day (500 credits at 5 each), so roughly 50 days for 5,000

GMPlus doesn't list paid plans, so it's free but limited by its daily credits.

Where loclay is different

GMPlus lists business emails and socials, but not who runs the business. loclay reads each business's contact, about and team pages for the decision maker, credits a direct email or phone to them only when it's published next to their name, and labels every contact with its source.

loclay also searches one business type across as many cities as you pick in one search, which matters once you need thousands of leads rather than a hundred a day.

A loclay lead for a plumbing business: the owner, Maria Chen, labelled 'Found on About page'; her direct email, 'Found on Team page'; the main phone, 'From Google Maps'; a shared info@ inbox, 'Found on Contact page'; and the four website pages the AI read.

Choose GMPlus if

You need a small number of leads, you'd rather not pay, or you want to pull data while browsing Google Maps in Chrome.

Choose loclay if

You need owner contacts rather than business inboxes, at volume, across several cities, with the page behind each contact.

Bottom line

GMPlus is the free way to pull Google Maps data a little at a time. loclay is for owner contacts across many cities in one search.
