Find local businesses without a website or with a broken one

D7 Leads and similar tools export static contact lists. LeadSweep goes further: it actively scans for businesses missing a website, verifies each one in real time, scores them with AI, detects social media, and drafts your cold email. All in one workflow. You don't just get a list of names; you get a prioritised pipeline with context for every lead.

LeadSweep scans local business listings across multiple overlapping zones in your target area. For every business found, it automatically checks whether a real, working website exists. Businesses without one, or with a social media link listed as a website, are flagged as high-priority leads.

Depending on the area size and category, LeadSweep typically returns 50–500+ businesses per search. It uses a multi-zone grid scanning approach that covers your entire suburb or city, not just the top 20 results.

The AI evaluates each business and assigns a score from 0 to 100. It considers whether they have a website, their star rating, review count, and social media presence. Each score includes plain-English reasoning, a specific pitch angle you can use, and a priority level: HOT, WARM, or COLD.

Virtually every country worldwide. You can search any city, suburb, postcode, or region. LeadSweep even includes autocomplete suggestions to help you find the right location name.

Yes, on every plan including free — and exporting never costs credits, because it is your data. One click gives you a CSV file. The export includes business name, address, phone, website status, rating, review count, social media links, lead score, and AI reasoning. Ready for any CRM.

LeadSweep checks what the listing claims, then loads the site to see whether it actually works. It probes common domain patterns to catch sites the listing missed, and it does not count a Facebook page or a directory entry as a website of their own. Where a host blocks automated checks, that is reported as unchecked rather than guessed at — a red mark next to a business whose site is fine is a claim you would repeat to them.

Two kinds, and the second is usually the better lead. Businesses with no site of their own — including the ones whose only web presence is a Facebook page or a directory listing. And businesses whose site does not work: a domain that is parked, one that 404s, one that has almost nothing on it. That second group has already decided they want a website and already paid for the domain, so there is something concrete to point at. Paid plans can filter a scan down to just these.

Not at the moment. Sweeping a suburb costs real money in Google Places API calls — a few dollars a scan — so scanning sits behind a plan. You can create an account without a card to look around, but running a scan needs Starter or Pro. Both are month to month, cancel any time, and every lead you find is yours to keep and export.

Every plan comes with a pot of credits each month. Running a scan costs a 500-credit base fee plus 2 credits for each business you have never seen before. A typical scan of around 75 businesses works out to roughly 650 credits, so the Pro plan covers about 14 scans a month. The base fee covers sweeping the whole area — dozens of overlapping zones — which is the same work whether that area turns up 15 businesses or 150. AI scoring, email drafts and preview sites are a few credits each, and CSV export is always free.

It costs you nothing. We reserve the maximum a scan could cost when you start it, then charge only the actual amount when it finishes and return the rest. If the scan finds no businesses, or errors out, or times out, the whole reservation is released and you are charged zero.

No, never. Once a business is in your list it is yours. If it turns up in five later scans of the same area, those five are free — you are only ever charged for businesses you have not seen before. Repeat scans of an area we have data cached for cost just 50 credits.

Yes, on paid plans, up to one month's worth. Top-up credits bought separately are only used once your monthly allowance runs out and stay valid for 12 months, so buying extra is never wasted.

You save a territory — a suburb plus a business category — and LeadSweep re-scans it on a schedule, daily, weekly or monthly. It compares each scan against everything it has already shown you and emails you only the genuinely new businesses. It costs a flat 200 credits per month per territory regardless of how often it checks, and you can pause it any time.

For a business with no website, LeadSweep generates a real mockup landing page you can send them as a link. When the prospect opens it, you get an email telling you — including if they come back and look again. It is the strongest buying signal the product produces, and the best moment to call.

Yes. LeadSweep automatically detects Facebook and Instagram pages for each business by scraping website links, checking the business homepage, and using domain-based search. Social links appear clickable directly in your results.
