I made an app to collect leads from Facebook Page's inbox & comments

Hi guys! I'm Kevin, founder of Kollect (https://kollectapp.com), a web app to collect emails and phone numbers from inbox and comments on Facebook.

      Also, our app doesn't "scrape" those emails and phones from unknown sources (like other apps, that even collect info from illegal databases), is the user itself who send its info voluntarily to the Facebook Page, and only the Facebook admin can access to that info (as he/she can do it by copying/pasting it from inbox and comments). Think it like a way to order/classify incoming inboxes/comments into a table.

      All the data is stored in Google CloudSQL, which is one of the most reliables services to store info (and is also GDPR friendly) :)

      Thanks Jerry, we really appreciate your feedback :) I haven't noticed that it isn't clear that Kollect works with Facebook pages since the beginning of the landing page, maybe because when we started coding Kollect we thought about integrate with other social media platforms (but that will not happen in at least a few months).

      By the way, we will launch Kollect 1.0, open for everyone, here and on ProductHunt in a few weeks, will let you know! :D
