LinkedIn People Search

🔎 LinkedIn People Search

Find public LinkedIn profiles by keyword, title, company, school, location, or name, and get clean rows with the name, headline, company, location, schools, and profile URL. No LinkedIn account, cookies, or session needed. A found profile costs $3 per 1,000, and a partial profile costs $0.80 per 1,000.

✨ Why use LinkedIn People Search?

• 🔓 No login or cookies — it uses only what is publicly visible, so your own account is never at risk.
• 🎯 Targeted filters — job title, company, school, location, first and last name.
• 🪜 Seniority and function — keep Directors, VPs, CXOs, or a function like Sales or Engineering, read from the public headline.
• 🔁 Multiple searches in one run — add extra queries that run until the profile cap is filled.
• 🏢 Company employees — give a company name or its LinkedIn page and get people who work or worked there, from several public search engines, exact company matches first.
• 🔤 Spelling-aware name search — Müller, Mueller and Muller are all searched, and close matches count.
• 📊 Relevance score — every row says how well it matches the name, company, title and location you searched.
• 💸 Clear two-tier pricing — full profiles and partial profiles are priced separately, and partial ones are cheaper.
• 📦 Export anywhere — JSON, CSV, Excel, or the API.

🎯 Use cases

• 🧲 Prospecting — build lists of people in a role at target companies.
• 🧑‍💼 Recruiting — find candidates by title, school, and location.
• 🤝 Account research — map decision makers by seniority and function.
• 🗺️ Market mapping — see who works in a niche, such as growth marketing in London.
• 🔗 Lead enrichment — add headline, company, and profile URL to a name list.

🚀 How to use

1. Enter Keywords, or a first and last name, and optionally extra searches.
2. Add filters such as job title, company, school, or location.
3. Set Max profiles.
4. Click Start and wait for the run to finish.
5. Export the profiles as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

📥 Input

{
  "keywords": "growth marketing",
  "maxResults": 10,
  "location": "London",
  "seniorityLevels": ["Director", "VP"],
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useScrapelyProxy": true,
    "scrapelyProxyGroups": ["DATACENTER"]
  }
}

Company employees example:

{
  "company": "Example Corp",
  "companyEmployees": true,
  "maxResults": 20
}

In a name search (first and last name, or keywords that are a name such as Jane Müller), the company, title and location rank the results instead of removing them; turn on Only matching results to keep only people who match them all.

Seniority and function are read from the public headline. Profiles with no readable level or function are skipped when you use those filters.

📤 Output

One dataset row per person.

{
  "name": "Jane Doe",
  "summary": "Jane Doe - Example Corp",
  "currentCompany": "Example Corp",
  "location": "London, United Kingdom",
  "schools": ["Example University"],
  "about": "Jane Doe is a growth marketing leader helping B2B companies grow…",
  "partial": false,
  "seniorityLevel": "Director",
  "jobFunction": "Marketing",
  "source": "public",
  "companies": [
    { "name": "Example Corp", "linkedinUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/example" }
  ],
  "profileUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/jane-doe-example",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-10-14T01:18:12.895Z"
}

(Fictional sample in the real output shape. The photo link and a few empty fields are removed.) Partial rows keep the name, headline, and URL when the public page did not open, and have partial set to true.

💰 Pricing

Full profiles cost $3.00 per 1,000. Platform usage (compute and proxy) is billed on top.

Worked example: a run that returns 3 full and 7 partial profiles costs 3 × $0.003 + 7 × $0.0008 = $0.0146 in events plus about $0.004 of platform usage, around $0.018 in total. The mix depends on your search.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape LinkedIn profiles?

The actor reads only public information and does not use a login. Profile data is personal data, so you are responsible for complying with LinkedIn's terms and privacy law such as GDPR.

Do I need a LinkedIn account or cookies?

No.

How does it find people without LinkedIn search?

LinkedIn's own people search needs a login. The actor discovers profiles through a public web search and then reads the logged-out profile page.

Why are some rows partial?

If the public profile page does not open, you still get the name, headline, URL and, when the search result shows them, the company and location, at the lower partial price.

What if nothing matches?

An empty input finishes with no rows instead of failing.

Can I schedule it or use the API?

Yes, from the console or through the API.

⚠️ Limits

• Public data only. Results depend on what public search and logged-out pages show, so they are not a complete people-search index.
• Searching with your own session cookie and reverse email lookup are not offered.
• Filters on title, company, school, and location match the public text, so they are approximate.
• Public search finds a limited number of profiles for each keyword; add more queries to get more.
• LinkedIn can change what it shows publicly, which may cause occasional gaps.
