The problem

Why a restaurant list goes stale.

Restaurants turn over fast: new spots open, others close, and ownership changes hands constantly. Any static restaurant list is wrong within months - you waste outreach on closed venues and miss the ones that just opened. On top of that, the people you want to reach (owners, managers) hide behind reservation lines and Instagram DMs, not a tidy corporate email.

biz collect treats freshness as the whole point. You search a city for restaurants, cafes, or bistros and get a live result, deduped, with each venue's website crawled for emails and social handles. Because it runs on demand, the list reflects what is open right now - and you can re-pull a neighborhood any time without owning a scraper.

How it works

Generate the list with one API call.

A city plus keywords becomes a fresh, enriched list - generated live, never pulled from a static file. See the full pipeline.

  1. POST the city and dining keywords

    Send POST /v1/search with the city, a radius, and keywords like 'restaurant', 'cafe', and 'bistro'. A job_id returns immediately and the search runs live.

  2. Poll the job for free

    Poll GET /v1/jobs/:id until it completes. Polling costs nothing, so gathering and deduping venues across a city adds no extra credits.

  3. Enrich from each venue site

    Enrichment crawls each restaurant's website for deduped emails and social profiles - often the only direct line to an owner or manager.

  4. Read the structured venue records

    Each venue returns with name, category, address, phone, website, emails, socials, ratings, reviews, and opening hours in a stable schema.

  5. Filter out closed venues and load

    Use live open/closed status to drop shuttered spots, then push the fresh list into outreach or export CSV on the Business plan.

Fields that matter

What you actually use for restaurants.

live open/closed status

Restaurants churn constantly - this field is what stops you from emailing a venue that closed last month.

social profiles

Hospitality runs on Instagram; a social handle is often the most active and reachable channel for a venue.

email(s)

Booking and management emails crawled from the site - the path to an owner past the reservation line.

category

Separates restaurants from cafes, bars, and bistros so you can target the exact dining segment you serve.

ratings, reviews, opening hours

Volume and hours hint at venue scale and the best windows to reach a manager who is not mid-service.

Illustrative: a reservation platform onboarding a district

Imagine a reservations platform launching in a Lisbon district. They run one biz collect search for 'restaurant', 'cafe', and 'bistro' across the area and poll the job until it finishes.

They get a current list of venues with social handles, emails, phone numbers, and live open/closed status. They drop anything marked closed, sort independent venues to the top, and reach out via email and Instagram. This is an illustrative scenario; the venues returned reflect what is publicly listed and open at search time.

Frequently asked questions.

How do I get a fresh restaurant contact list for a city?

POST /v1/search with the city, a radius, and dining keywords, poll the job, and read back venues enriched with website emails and social profiles. Because the search runs live, the list reflects what is open at search time.

How do you handle restaurants that have closed?

Each record carries live open/closed status from the search, so you can filter out shuttered venues. Running on demand instead of from a static file is exactly how biz collect avoids dead listings.

Can I reach venues that only use Instagram?

Yes - enrichment returns social profiles alongside any website email, and for many venues the Instagram handle is the most active channel for reaching an owner or manager.

Can I target only cafes or only bars?

Use precise keywords ('cafe', 'wine bar', 'bistro') and the returned category field to narrow to the exact segment. Each unique keyword query factors into credit cost.

Is collecting restaurant data compliant?

biz collect gathers only publicly available business data from public sources, under a Swiss, GDPR/CCPA-aware posture, honoring Global Privacy Control. It is scoped to public business listings, not private personal data, and you remain responsible for lawful outreach.
