Hey Product Hunt,

Evgenii here, founder of SocLeads. Some of you backed SocLeads 3.0 in May. Today we're launching SocLeads Groups, a tool with one job: you give it an open Facebook group, it gives you an email list.

A lot of small business owners never bothered with LinkedIn. They spend their time in Facebook groups instead. When we asked users what they ran SocLeads for, Facebook groups kept coming up. Several told us it was what they used it for most.

Until now, getting leads out of those groups meant copying them by hand, or giving an automation tool your Facebook session cookies and hoping your profile (and the ad accounts tied to it) survives. The other option was a developer scraper that returns posts as JSON, after which you dig for emails yourself.

How it works:

Paste a link to an open group.
Turn on emails-only mode, plus validation if you want it.
Export the members as CSV or XLS.

What's different:

Your Facebook account stays out of it. We never ask for your login, cookies or session, so there's nothing on your side for Facebook to flag.
You get members: names, plus emails, phones and websites where they're public.
In emails-only mode you pay only for the emails we find. Validation is optional at +0.5 credits per email.

What it won't do:

Private groups. It works with open groups only, on purpose. Without a login there's no way past the member wall.
Give the same yield in every niche. Groups where businesses advertise their services return far more emails than hobby groups.

Pricing is the same as the rest of SocLeads. The free plan gives you 100 credits a month with no card, enough for a small test run on your own group. Pay yearly and any plan is 20% off.

One question for you: which kinds of Facebook groups would you point this at first? Your answers tell us which niches to tune next.

I'm here all day.

SocLeads Groups - Facebook group in, email list out. No login needed.
