🛒 Google Shopping Lite | Bulk Product & Price API

Fast, low-cost Google Shopping price data. Send one or many search terms and get one structured row per product - title, price, retailer, rating, delivery, and link. Built for bulk price monitoring and competitive intelligence at scale. Pay per product, with a flat headline price of $1.50 per 1,000 products. MCP-ready so Claude and other AI agents can call it as a tool.

📋 What this API returns

One row per product, with these fields:

🎯 Use cases

• Bulk price monitoring. Track prices for your whole catalog of search terms in one run, then schedule it to watch prices over time.
• Competitive intelligence. See which retailers carry a product and at what price, side by side.
• Dropshipping research. Scan many product ideas at once and compare prices, sellers, and ratings.
• SKU tracking. Pull listings for specific products across sellers and export to JSON, CSV, or Excel.
• AI agent workflows. Drive this API over MCP from Claude (see below) to pull live shopping prices in-conversation.

⚙️ Input examples

One search term

{
"searchTerms":["wireless headphones"]
}

Many search terms at once

{
"searchTerms":["wireless headphones","noise cancelling earbuds","mechanical keyboard"],
"maxResultsPerSearch":60
}

Country and language targeting

{
"searchTerms":["running shoes"],
"country":"gb",
"language":"en",
"maxResultsPerSearch":100
}

Each term is searched independently and paginated up to maxResultsPerSearch (default 100). Each page returns roughly 40 to 60 products.

💰 Pricing (pay-per-event)

That is a flat $1.50 per 1,000 products, with no setup fee. You pay only for the products actually stored.

Examples:

• One search term returning 60 products costs 60 x $0.0015 = $0.09.
• Monitoring 100 products costs $0.15.
• 1,000 products costs $1.50.

If a run's budget cannot cover every requested product, the Actor caps output to stay within budget (it fills earlier search terms first), so you are never billed beyond your limit.

🆚 Need full product detail pages?

This is the Lite tier: fast, SERP-grade price data, priced for bulk monitoring. It returns what Google Shopping shows on the results page. It does not open each product's detail page, pull full reviews, or track price history.

If you need per-product detail pages, review pulls, or richer seller data, use the premium tier: Google Shopping Products, Prices & Deals.

🔌 Use this API from Claude (MCP)

This Actor is MCP-server-compatible, so Claude Code (free trial), Claude Cowork (free trial), Claude (desktop and web), Cursor, and other MCP clients can call it as a tool through Apify's hosted MCP server.

Add it with this Actor-specific URL:

https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=actors,docs,johnvc/google-shopping-lite-api

Setup walkthrough:

Apify MCP integration docs: https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp

New to Claude Code or Claude Cowork? Both have a free trial.

Then ask Claude:

"Use the Google Shopping Lite API to get prices for 'wireless headphones', and list the cheapest five with their retailers."

❓ FAQ

How many products do I get per search term? As many as Google Shopping returns, up to your maxResultsPerSearch limit (default 100). Each results page carries roughly 40 to 60 products, and the Actor paginates until it reaches your limit or runs out.

How is billing calculated? You pay $0.0015 per product stored, which is $1.50 per 1,000 products. There is no setup fee. If your run budget is smaller than the requested total, the Actor stores as many products as the budget covers (filling earlier search terms first) and stops.

Why did a run return fewer products than I asked for? Either Google Shopping had fewer listings for that term, or the run budget capped the output. Raise the run's budget limit to store more.

Do I get product detail pages or reviews? No. This Lite tier returns results-page data only. For detail pages and richer data, use the premium Google Shopping Products, Prices & Deals Actor.
