Tools · Uqab by Metrixan
Find businesses from map searches and keep them on your own computer.
Uqab collects business listings from the Google Maps and Bing Maps searches you run - one search at a time, at a conservative pace, reading only what the page shows - into a database inside your browser. It never signs in anywhere for you and never bypasses anti-bot pages.
Uqab by Metrixan
- Google Chrome (current version) on Windows, macOS or Linux
- A Chrome profile you keep: the local database lives in it
Chrome Web Store Chrome Web Store listing: submitted, awaiting review. Until it is published, install the same build from the download page ("Load unpacked"); the Store copy will carry over your leads and activation.
Why Uqab
Whole markets, planned for you
A Market Run covers a country or region sector by sector with no collections or jobs to set up by hand, keeps a coverage ledger, and carries on by itself after an internet outage or a browser restart.
Clean leads, never silently merged
Duplicates are detected across searches; probable duplicates are held with the evidence side by side for your decision, and your notes, tags and do-not-contact marks survive rescans.
Exports that import without duplicates
JSON, CSV and XLSX files per client are written into a folder you choose and kept current, so Uqab Mailer or your CRM can import them again and again without duplicates.
Email addresses without visiting the sites yourself
Optional enrichment finds public email addresses on business websites and records the page each one came from. It is off until you turn it on.
Your data stays yours
Listings live in your browser profile and in your export folder. Metrixan receives no leads, keeps no copy of your backups and runs no tracking or advertising.
What it means day to day
Time it saves
The searching, paging, copying and de-duplicating that a person would do by hand run as a job you can pause, resume and leave unattended; a Market Run plans the searches itself and resumes after an outage without collecting a listing twice.
Easy to set up
Install the extension, open the dashboard from the toolbar and run a map search; a "?" sits next to every explained feature and Help & About is one click away. No account at a data vendor, no API keys.
Safeguards you can check
Uqab reads only what the map page shows, keeps a conservative pace, never signs in for you and never bypasses CAPTCHAs or anti-bot pages. The only Metrixan service it contacts is licensing, which receives your activation email, a random device id, the version and daily counts - no listings.

Acquisition
- Search Builder

Market Runs

Exports, backups and imports
- Export folder sync
- Export profiles with validation, so each destination gets the columns it expects
Organisation

Free for ever, not a trial
- 10 new businesses a day, activated with one email code, for ever
- Reading, editing, exporting and backing up what you already have never depend on the plan; expiry restricts, never deletes
- Duplicates and off-location results never count against the daily allowance; held listings save themselves after the daily reset
- A paid plan removes the daily limit on one computer (one browser profile) at a time; deactivate to move it

- Uqab reads the map pages you search and, only when enrichment is on, the business websites it visits for you
- No tracking, no advertising, no resale of data
