What is a LinkedIn scraper?
A LinkedIn scraper collects information from LinkedIn pages and saves it as structured data, such as names, job titles, companies, locations and profile links. It saves you from copying search results by hand into a spreadsheet.
Most scrapers today do more than copy. They clean the data, find and verify emails, and send the results to your CRM or outreach tools. If emails are your main goal, compare them with dedicated LinkedIn email finders, which focus on contact accuracy.
What each scraper can extract
Scrapers differ most in where they can pull data from. Some only read Sales Navigator, while others can extract from regular searches, posts and other platforms too.
| Tool | Main source | Adds emails? |
|---|---|---|
| Evaboot | Sales Navigator searches and lists | Yes, verified |
| PhantomBuster | LinkedIn plus 15+ platforms | Yes, email credits |
| Wiza | Sales Navigator and profiles | Yes, verified live |
| TexAu | Searches and imported lists | Yes, waterfall enrichment |
| Linked Helper | LinkedIn searches and profiles | Yes, email finder |
If you only need a handful of contacts, a scraper is overkill and a one-click LinkedIn extension does the job. Scrapers pay off once you're building lists of hundreds of leads a month.
LinkedIn's rules on scraping and automation
LinkedIn doesn't allow scraping. Its page on prohibited software and extensions says third-party tools that scrape or automate activity on the site break its User Agreement, and accounts using them can be restricted.
LinkedIn also explains its stance on automated activity on LinkedIn, which covers tools that act on your behalf. Every scraper on this list carries some risk, and the safest way to use one is slowly and within sensible daily limits.
Never scrape with an account you can't afford to lose. Spread large exports over several days and avoid running several tools on the same account at once.
What LinkedIn scrapers cost
Pricing models vary a lot. Evaboot charges per lead exported, Wiza charges only for valid emails, TexAu charges for successful lookups, PhantomBuster charges by execution time, and Linked Helper charges a flat monthly licence.
| Tool | Free option | Paid tiers start at |
|---|---|---|
| Evaboot | Free sign-up | $29 a month |
| PhantomBuster | Free plan, 10-row exports | €69 a month |
| Wiza | Free plan, 20 valid emails | $49 per user monthly |
| TexAu | 50 free credits | $99 a month |
| Linked Helper | Free trial | $15 a month |
Remember to add the cost of Sales Navigator if your scraper needs it. For teams already paying for Sales Navigator, Evaboot is often the cheapest way to get clean lists out of it.
From scraped list to conversation
A list is only the start. Once you have leads, you need to reach them with one of the LinkedIn outreach tools we ranked, and on LinkedIn that usually means connection requests and follow-up messages sent at a safe pace.
Aimfox is the outreach tool we rate highest for that step. It can build campaigns from post engagers, event attendees and group members without a separate scraper, and our Aimfox review explains how its safety limits work.
How to choose a LinkedIn scraper
Decide what you need to extract
Search results and lead lists are the most common job. If you also need post engagers, group members or data from other platforms, a flexible toolkit like PhantomBuster covers more ground.
Check whether you need Sales Navigator
Evaboot and Wiza work from Sales Navigator, which costs extra. Linked Helper and PhantomBuster can also work from regular LinkedIn searches.
Look at data cleaning
Raw LinkedIn data is messy. Tools that clean names, titles and company names as they export save hours of spreadsheet work before an outreach campaign.
Think about where it runs
Cloud tools run without your computer being on. Desktop tools like Linked Helper keep data on your machine but need it running during campaigns.
Keep volumes sensible
Pulling thousands of profiles in a burst is the quickest way to draw LinkedIn's attention. Choose a tool that lets you pace extraction and spread it over time.
How we ranked these tools
We started wide. We listed the tools people use most for this job, then dropped any that have shut down or no longer do what they claim.
We checked each tool's own site. Features, limits and monthly prices come straight from the company, on the date shown at the top.
We read what users say. App store and review-site feedback helped us spot problems the sales pages leave out.
We scored and ranked them. Each score reflects how well the tool does the job, how safe it is for your account, and what it costs.
FAQ
What is the best LinkedIn scraper?
We rank Evaboot first since it exports Sales Navigator searches with cleaned data and verified emails from $29 a month. PhantomBuster is better if you need to extract from more sources than Sales Navigator.
Is scraping LinkedIn legal?
Scraping public data is a legal grey area, but it breaks LinkedIn's User Agreement, so LinkedIn can restrict accounts that use scrapers. Data protection law such as GDPR also applies to how you use what you collect.
Can I scrape LinkedIn without Sales Navigator?
Yes. PhantomBuster and Linked Helper can work from regular LinkedIn searches and profiles. Evaboot and Wiza are built around Sales Navigator.
Will my LinkedIn account get banned for scraping?
It can be restricted, especially if you pull large volumes quickly. Keep exports small and spread out, and don't use an account you can't afford to lose.
Is there a free LinkedIn scraper?
PhantomBuster has a free plan, but exports are limited to 10 rows. Wiza's free plan includes 20 valid emails, and TexAu gives 50 free credits to try it.
What data can a LinkedIn scraper collect?
Typically names, job titles, companies, locations and profile links, plus emails and phone numbers if the tool includes enrichment. Some can also collect post engagers and group members.
