PhantomBuster and Yalors can both extract leads from Google Maps and LinkedIn. The difference is the approach: PhantomBuster is an automation platform you assemble to fit your needs, priced by execution time; Yalors is a single app where search, lists, sequences and the inbox are already connected. This comparison uses PhantomBuster’s public pages as read in October 2026.
Who are PhantomBuster and Yalors for?
PhantomBuster is a no-code platform that automates repetitive lead generation tasks: collecting LinkedIn profiles, enriching leads with emails and job info, sending personalised messages and syncing data to a CRM. Each automation (a “Phantom”) does one task, and “Workflows” chain several together. It runs on LinkedIn, Sales Navigator, Google Maps, Instagram, X, Facebook, YouTube and more. It suits growth and ops people who like to configure their own processes.
Yalors is for freelancers, agencies and B2B service providers who want a ready-to-use tool: search businesses on Google Maps or people on LinkedIn, save them to lists, reach them in a LinkedIn, WhatsApp and email sequence, then handle replies in a unified inbox with an AI copilot.

Where PhantomBuster is stronger
- Breadth of automations. Instagram, X, Facebook, YouTube, Sales Navigator, Google Maps and more: if you collect data across many platforms, PhantomBuster covers far more ground than Yalors.
- Flexibility. You pick each Phantom, configure it, chain it with others and send the results to your CRM. For technical or growth people, it is a real playground.
- Advanced LinkedIn use cases. Extract the people who comment on a post, members of a group or event attendees, then reach out to them.
- AI applied to data. Qualification scores for LinkedIn profiles, AI-generated custom fields and post comments.
- Volume. Higher plans (Grow, Scale) offer many more execution hours and slots for teams automating at scale.
Where Yalors is different
Search, lists with notes, tags and statuses, sequences and the inbox are all connected. You don’t chain automations or watch execution time.
Add conditions (invitation accepted, replied, email opened, has an email, has a phone) and let each branch follow its own path. Automatic stop as soon as a lead replies.
Every reply is tagged by intent (interested, question, objection, not now…), summarised, with a suggested next step and a draft answer in the lead’s language.
PhantomBuster is available in English only. Yalors runs in French, English and Arabic (right to left).
1 credit = 20 Google Maps results, 1 credit per LinkedIn search. Plans also set contact reveals and campaign contacts per month. See the pricing page.
Customers in Tunisia see prices in TND, VAT included; everyone else pays in USD.
PhantomBuster or Yalors: which one should you choose?
Choose PhantomBuster if…
- you collect data across many platforms (Instagram, X, Facebook, YouTube…);
- you enjoy building and configuring your own automations;
- you want niche LinkedIn use cases, like extracting the commenters of a post;
- your team is comfortable with English and with technical tools.
Choose Yalors if…

Google Maps: two approaches
With PhantomBuster, an automation exports the results of a Google Maps search, which you then use in a spreadsheet, a CRM or another automation. With Yalors, results arrive in the app with phone, website, emails, social profiles, rating and opening hours; you can filter them (rating, open now…), save them to a list and launch a campaign.
