Quick answer: Scrap.io is a monthly subscription to extract business listings from online maps in almost any country, with a large quota of rows. Prospya is a ready-made database of local businesses in France and Belgium (plus big cities abroad) that you pay per contact, with no subscription, credits that never expire, and a CRM and email campaigns built in. Pick Scrap.io for high monthly volumes across many countries; pick Prospya for campaigns by trade and city in France or Belgium, irregular use, or a team that wants to call and email from the same place.

What Scrap.io does well
- Reach: it works in almost every country and on thousands of categories, by city, region or country.
- Volume: 10,000 rows a month on the entry plan, up to 100,000 on the largest one. For a team that exports a lot every month, the cost per row is very low.
- Freshness: each query is run when you ask for it.
- Tools for technical teams: reverse search, file enrichment and an API on every plan.
What Prospya does differently
- The list is already built and cleaned: duplicates merged, technical and third-party addresses removed, each email's domain checked to receive mail. You start calling the same minute.
- You pay for what you keep: search and counts are free; 1 credit per business unlocked, and a business with neither phone nor email is free. A business you already unlocked is never charged again.
- No subscription: €19 for 1,000 credits, €49 for 3,000, €129 for 10,000. Credits never expire, which suits campaigns with quiet months in between.
- Calling and emailing in the same place: pipeline, follow-ups, call logging, an AI writer, and email campaigns to every business of a search, with an unsubscribe link. Up to 10 people share the credits and contacts at no extra cost.
- French and Spanish interface, with live figures by trade and city, for example 1,668 restaurants in Lyon.

The table shows the real trade-off: Scrap.io wins clearly on large, regular volumes; Prospya wins when you prospect in campaigns and do not want to pay for months you do not use. Our article on how much a lead list really costs explains how to compare per reachable contact rather than per row.
When to choose Scrap.io
- You prospect in many countries, or in a country Prospya does not cover.
- You need tens of thousands of rows every month and have the time to sort them.
- Your team already has its own CRM and sending tool and only wants the raw data.
When to choose Prospya
- You target France or Belgium by trade and city: restaurants, salons, tradespeople, shops.
- You prospect in campaigns and do not want a subscription running between them.
- You want one place to find businesses, call them, email them and follow up, for a small team.
You can run a free search to see the businesses available in your area before you buy anything.
Can you use both?
Yes. Some teams use an extraction tool for countries Prospya does not cover, and Prospya for France and Belgium where the list is ready and the CRM is included. If you already have a file, Prospya can complete it: you only pay for the businesses it finds. For a wider look at the market, read our Scrap.io alternatives review.
