The short answer
G Maps Extractor is a Chrome extension that exports Google Maps search results to a spreadsheet. Prospect Cheap is a lead generation tool that searches six live sources — Google Maps, YouTube, the Facebook Ad Library, Product Hunt, TrustMRR and Skool — and returns each lead with emails, the owner's name and social profiles. Choose G Maps Extractor for occasional exports of a single Maps search; choose Prospect Cheap when you want fresh, outreach-ready lists of local businesses, creators, advertisers or founders.

Where G Maps Extractor is strong
- One-click exports from the Maps page
- Lightweight
- Familiar spreadsheet output
If those are what you need most, G Maps Extractor is a sensible choice.
Where Prospect Cheap is different
Prospect Cheap runs searches on our servers, so you can start a search with dozens of keywords and cities, close the tab, and come back to a finished, enriched list — with emails, owners and socials already added.
- Browser extensions stop when you close the tab and are limited to what the page shows, so big lists take hours of babysitting.
- Exports usually contain only what is on the listing — no emails from the website, no owner names, no social profiles.
- Searching many keywords across many cities by hand is slow and easy to get wrong.
Pricing approach
Prospect Cheap uses credits: one credit per lead you receive, and a search that fails costs nothing — the credits set aside for it go straight back. Plans are Starter ($29/month, 10,000 credits), Growth ($79/month, 50,000) and Scale ($199/month, 200,000), and subscribers can top up extra credits at any time. G Maps Extractor's pricing is free tier with paid plans for more exports.
The fairest way to compare is cost per usable lead: how much you pay for each lead that has the contact details you need.
Which should you choose?
- Choose G Maps Extractor if you only need an occasional small export of a page you are looking at.
- Choose Prospect Cheap if you want lists built from live sources, with emails and owner names already attached, ready for Instantly or GoHighLevel.
- Use both if they cover different parts of your workflow — many teams do.
