Fast Google Maps lead scraper for clean local business lists.

Enter business keywords and locations. The actor returns a simple, sales-ready dataset with business names, categories, ratings, addresses, phone numbers, websites, and Google Maps URLs.

Why This Actor Is Fast

Most Google Maps scrapers open every business listing page one by one. That is slow and expensive.

This actor uses a faster direct map-response parser. It loads each Google Maps search, captures the structured map results response, and parses business records directly. This makes it suitable for high-volume lead discovery where speed and compute cost matter.

In testing, a 6-keyword New York run produced 130 business rows in about 16 seconds of actor runtime.

Output Fields

Performance

Performance depends on Google Maps response speed, location breadth, and result availability. In testing:

• 130 rows extracted in about 16 seconds of actor runtime
• 124/130 rows included phone numbers
• 113/130 rows included websites
• 130/130 rows included names, ratings, and Maps URLs

Google may return around 20-25 strong results per keyword/location response. For larger datasets, use multiple keywords, multiple nearby locations, or neighborhood-level searches.

Limitations

• Phone numbers and websites are only returned when Google exposes them in map results.
• This actor is optimized for fast lead lists, not full place-detail pages or review scraping.
• Google Maps results vary by language, region, time, and ranking changes.
• Very broad locations can return mixed regional results.
• Google may rate limit or change response structures.
• Users are responsible for complying with Google Maps terms and applicable laws.

Recommended Pricing

Recommended Apify pricing model: paid per result.

Suggested price: $4 per 1,000 results.

Reason: customers are buying usable local business leads, not browser waiting time. Per-result pricing is simple, marketplace-friendly, and fair because buyers pay only for saved rows.
