About biz collect

Built for builders shipping with AI.

We built biz collect because every team plugging an LLM into the real world hits the same wall: structured local business data is locked behind ten different scrapers, none of which speak JSON.

Why we built this

Scraping is a tax on every AI product.

In late 2025 we were shipping an AI sales agent and discovered we were spending more engineering time on Google Maps scrapers than on the agent itself. Each crawler broke every few weeks. Selectors drifted. Headless browsers ran out of memory. Worse, none of the off-the-shelf APIs returned what an LLM tool call actually needs: stable field names, predictable JSON, an OpenAPI document an agent could read.

So we built the API we wished existed. POST a city and a keyword. Get back a job ID. Poll until ready. Receive a list of businesses with phone, website, verified email, and a stable schema. That's the entire contract.

We're based in Winterthur, Switzerland - which means revFADP and GDPR aren't an afterthought. We treat the people behind the data the way we'd want to be treated.

What we optimize for

Four principles, every release.

LLM-first, not LLM-as-afterthought

Every JSON envelope, every field name, every error code is designed for an agent to consume on the first try - no special prompts required.

Boring, on purpose

Boring infrastructure is the kind that ships. Async jobs, stable schemas, OpenAPI 3.1. No magic, no surprises.

Compliance is a feature

Swiss revFADP, GDPR, CCPA - covered in one DPA. Public Git history of every policy change. Privacy isn't a marketing line.

Local data, global API

We aggregate the open web, official registries, and public directories so you can stop wiring up region-specific scrapers.
